Monroe’s Last Nudes Lohan Redux

MONROE’S LAST NUDES LOHAN REDUX
Looking at the New York Magazine Nude Lohan prints, as an artist who’s taken many reference photoshoots, I felt the pictures only told half the story. I needed to see how they compared to the original Marilyn shots and which Marilyn photos were used for reference. Just seeing the Lohan photos didn’t give me any perspective.

I painstakingly (it was fun) went through the original Bert Stern / Monroe “the last sitting” shot-by-shot and figured out (to my best guess) which pictures he referenced for the Lohan shoot. (see below)

How Lohan was able to take poses and expressions that are fun and alive in 1962 and make them look so dull and contrived in 2008 is amazing. Probably the one time when a little champagne tumble off the sobriety wagon would have been a good career move. . .

“Ohne Titel (Swimming Pool)”

A lot of Ingmar Alge’s paintings are reflections of architecture that brings to mind a suburbia of “somewhere else”. There is a carefully constructed flatness to the work, as though the artist has built up layers to create a façade that hides the truth. The viewer is given a take-it-or-leave-it sort of choice, and to get through to the horizon, must first get lost in the lonely landscape provided. How refreshed will that swimming pool be? How cosy is that home? What sort of conversation takes place on the two chairs?

“Winterwolken”

adidas Originals Spring/Summer 2008 - Introducing Originals Denim by Diesel

On February 1, 2008 two iconic lifestyle brands, adidas Originals and Diesel will launch a landmark product collaboration - adidas Originals Denim by Diesel.
The first denim collection to result from this four year relationship is a collectible line of extremely detailed, premium denim for true jeans lovers, designed in conjunction with the adidas Originals and the Diesel Creative Team, latter headed by Creative Director Wilbert Das. Two male and two female models presented in four different washes will be available exclusively at adidas Originals stores all around the world starting spring/summer 2008. Prices range from 160 Euro for the female adi-rohnary model up to 210 Euro for the male adi-viker model. Representing the long-term partnership of the two brands, the range is recognizable by the adidas Originals Trefoil and the Diesel co-branding.adidas Originals and Diesel - two global brands that stand for authenticity, self-expression and creativity for the fashion forward - have come together in the spirit of unconstrained exploration and collaboration.”I am an adidas fan myself and I am very excited about this project! It is the first time that Diesel creates a denim line with another lifestyle brand and we wanted to do it with adidas that shares with us the same fresh attitude and care for high quality and creativity” said Renzo Rosso, President of Diesel.

“This is the first time that we have entered into a collaboration of this kind with adidas Originals, and we would only do this with the right partner who brings our consumer something truly unique,” explained Hermann Deininger, CMO adidas Sport Style Division. Now when a consumer walks into one of our stores, we can offer them a complete look - from a track top to jeans to a pair of sneakers.”

The unconditional approach to individuality and expression shared by both brands is presented in the first Originals Denim by Diesel collection and the below the line campaign to celebrate both authenticity and originality.

The general concept behind the different campaign executions is the expression of “83 original ways to successfully waste your time” by presenting playful, inspiring ways to encourage open, uninhibited self-expression and celebrate originality. 83 inspirations is just a start to invite everybody to share ideas in adidas Originals stores, online and through events. Because staying open to others is what being unconstrained is all about.

Algae Power:

“It has long been known that algae produce small amounts of hydrogen as a byproduct of photosynthesis. In 1999, researchers in Berkeley observed that algae alternate between hydrogen production and normal photosynthesis depending on the chemical environment. Depriving algae of oxygen and sulfur, the researchers greatly increased the hydrogen production and triggered the algae to produce hydrogen for an extended period of time. Another research group also discovered that algae will sustain simultaneous production of hydrogen and oxygen from water by illuminating the algae and depriving it of carbon dioxide and oxygen. Researchers estimate that a small pond ( 1.5 acre or 10 meter diameter) will produce enough hydrogen on a weekly basis to fuel 12 cars.”

Cody Hudson for GoodShape Design

by Tim Yu, 26 October 2007

Multimedia artist Cody Hudson is the first to take part in the GoodShape Design artist series run. The limited edition series consists of silk screened 18×24 prints made on heavy stock acid-free paper and t-shirts printed on the trusted American Apparel tee.

GoodShape founder and designer Wayne Pate isn’t going for a high-level concept here, he’s simply including artists that he finds inspiring personally. Rather than capitalize on current fads or who’s popular at the moment, we appreciate how the collection is a more honest curation of timeless and fun design.

The next artist on deck is Tyler Askew of Rude Movements. Wayne comments, “besides Tyler I have a few people in mind but I will keep that under my hat for now.” We’ll just have to keep checking back.

The prints go for $50 and are limited to an edition of 50 and the t-shirts cost $30. Pick up both at the GoodShape Online Shop.

The Coming of the X-Frocks

By CATHY HORYN

THE fashion shows have ended, editors are returning to life without room service and you’re wondering what you’re going to wear today. Hydrangea prints the size of, well, a hydrangea are very far from your thoughts. You have to start basting the Thanksgiving turkey — now. You have no time to consider a Richard Prince joke bag. Isn’t he at the Guggenheim? Who is Alber Elbaz? Who is Dries van Noten? You have exactly 68 shopping days until Christmas.

Faced with the task of selling billions of dollars’ worth of clothing and accessories, the fashion industry has to work very hard to get your attention. You might decide to buy a flat-screen television instead of a $7,000 Alexander McQueen sequined dress that shows a portrait by Steven Meisel beaded in gold or a pair of Marc Jacobs shoes that are supposed to look a size too small. A wired populace demands wild ideas.

In a sense, the front-rank designers, stars like Karl Lagerfeld and Nicolas Ghesquiere of Balenciaga, have to row for the rest of the industry. Mr. Lagerfeld may not be the first designer to think of turning an epaulet down on a jacket sleeve, but that he did it for Chanel, and in denim, is enough for the copy kings. Mr. Ghesquiere’s flower ensembles violate every rule about wearing prints: too loud, too big, too much like Aunt Peg’s Florida room.

But if no rule is broken, how would we know it’s fashion?

The spring collections in New York and Europe produced an amazing variety of trends: bold floral prints, intense color, jackets with peaked or rounded shoulders, transparency, and play clothes like jumpsuits and smock dresses with casual blazers.

What links all these ideas, though, is a taste for an extreme point of view. Even the jumpsuits are done in extreme shapes, particularly those by Stella McCartney and the English label Preen; Yves Saint Laurent makes a version in sweatshirt fleece.

Last spring, designers soaked their collections with bright color; now the palette looks violently bright, with livid pinks, siren yellows and deep, airline shades of blue. At Jil Sander, the designer Raf Simons treated color as a conceptual project, using two or three shades in combination to heighten the feeling of being drenched in color. Used on layers of tulle or gossamer silk, the effect also helped him mute qualms about transparency.

Mr. Ghesquiere’s jubilant prints of roses and peonies astonished even the fashion pros, perhaps because, in spite of their romantic associations, the prints seemed to spring from a hard nature. They have muscle, just as the curving lines of the Balenciaga outfits are clear and precise. By contrast, the sweet prints of Junya Watanabe seem normal to us , while the blown-up flowers of Mr. van Noten, Carolina Herrera and 6267, a relatively new label from Milan, look right.

As David Wolfe, the creative director of the Doneger Group, which advises the industry on trends, said, “If they’re not done in an extreme shape, they’re going to look like old prints.” Think of it another way: If you think your dress decisions no longer clearly indicate good taste or bad taste, you’re right. You and Aunt Peg finally have something in common, even if you don’t know what.

Much of fashion, like contemporary art and music, is addicted to extreme ideas, to an energy that doesn’t feel particularly intellectual. It just is, like the action of a pornographic movie. Rei Kawakubo of Comme des Garçons tried to suggest the confusion of culture, while Mr. Jacobs, it seemed to me, wanted to suggest the experience of contemporary fashion — specifically, the two-way-mirror effect of the runway, where you are the watcher and the watched, at once in the picture and outside it.

It becomes much harder, then, to see a logic and charm in the classical dresses at Bottega Veneta and Fendi, with their Grace Kelly lines, or in the cool austerity at Saint Laurent, where many of the shapes — the day skirts, the jewel-tone silk dresses and cotton blouses — subtly employed asymmetry. As Mr. Wolfe pointed out, with a laugh, such designs “are too directional for people to wear.” They’re not noisy enough.

So for now, fashion is in an insistent, suprapersonal mode. The most obvious expression of this is in the tailoring of jackets. For spring, shoulders extend away from the body, either up or out. The difference is significant enough that it seems as if the wearer is asserting herself beyond her physical space.

At Balenciaga, shoulders of tops rise into stiff peaks or explode into fuzzy pompoms of fabric. The Belgian modernist Martin Margiela takes his high, sharp blades of last season — a popular look on the Paris streets — and extends them even farther from the natural shoulder line. Chanel’s epaulets have the same effect.

Of course, one message is, “I’m important — coming through!” But tailoring has found an audience among young people, men and women alike, and many of the new spring shapes — the soft blazers at Stella McCartney, the vests at Proenza Schouler, the flouncy styles at John Galliano — are meant to convey a younger attitude. As Stephanie Solomon, the fashion director at Bloomingdale’s, said: “It’s a new signature that defines youth. It’s not the same old look from the old guard.”

Clothes in transparent fabrics, often in layers with undergarments exposed, received a lot of play during collections, beginning with Mr. Jacobs’s stripped-down evening gowns and Narciso Rodriguez’s more subtle veiling of black chiffon over simple lavender silk dresses. The most artful statement came from Mr. Simons, who opened the Jil Sander show with an outfit covered in a cocoon of silk tulle.

Yet apart from a few cries from retail executives (“too many nipples”), there was little objection to transparency. “Veiling might be a better word than transparency,” said Michael Fink, the fashion director of Saks Fifth Avenue, noting that the effect was, for the most part, just that — an illusion of bareness. “Very little was vulgar,” he said.

Nonetheless, the trend means you’ll see even more frank displays of lingerie next summer; this being fashion, one trend begets another. Mr. Wolfe suggests that television shows like “Mad Men” might be behind the erotic interest in bras and so forth. “Sex is certainly not a new game,” Mr. Wolfe said. “But it always seems to work.”

Finally, if you’re not completely riveted to someone’s bra straps or dodging her shoulder pads, you might give a glance to her footwear. Shoes have become extreme statements in their own, dominating handbags. Much of the radical design is concentrated on the heels, with Surrealist collapsing heels at Marc Jacobs, Art Nouveau-inspired flowers at Prada, and metal fretwork at Fendi.

Brands, Bags, Books, and Blogs

Paris Fashion Week provided inspiration for this entire Brands, Bags, Books, and Blogs issue. Though our review of the breakthrough shows rounds out our runway coverage of the season, we also discovered the fabulous collections of Celestina and Bea Valdes — two Manila-based accessories lines that define Filipino chic — at the Vendôme luxury tradeshow. Meanwhile, at the 6267 showroom, we ran into Alissa Emerson filing her order for Edit, a just-opened Carnegie Hill, New York store selling brands that are sure to excite the uptown neighborhood. Since books were on the minds of many editors and buyers that we spoke to — particularly at a chance meeting at Colette — Fall Bookings profiles the must-read selections of the season. Blogs, meanwhile, represented the other reading material of choice for show attendees this season. While we lent our services to Style.com’s Style File, we also spoke with Imran Ahmed about his own blog, The Business of Fashion, as well as the general blogosphere.

“The Red Ones”

Oriol Nicolàs is a Barcelona-based artist and illustrator whose works are simple and bold. His use of line and colour is very effective, with striking results, especially through the use of red. The Red Ones, in fact, is a wonderful piece, and it is the combination of the hoods, the beards and the perspective that pull it all together. The detail of the two different pairs of footwear is also a nice touch.

The Mr. Jones “Accurate” Watch

Coolhunting, Sep 27, 2007 21:24:30

Speaking of memento moris and clever watches, Mr Jones’ “Accurate” watch makes the inherent implication of a timepiece obvious. In fact, all of the limited edition models in his line are comments on the daily conundrums of life.

Last time I featured Mr. Jones Watches, he had an exhibition-only series of prototype electronic watches developed to explore new cultural expressions, technologies of timekeeping and how they relate to contemporary life. “Each one was the embodiment of a social critique or observation.”

With a perfect sense of black humor, cultural irony and dry wit, Crispin Jones, the man behind the Mister, described his concepts as “work which lives in the intersection between Fine Art and Design—broadly this area is known as Critical Design—using the language and tools of design to articulate a critical perspective.”

You may have already seen “The Decider,” with markings on the face alternately reading “yes” and “no,” but I was taken with the macabre nature of the Accurate. Evolved from his original Summissus watch, the Accurate similarly fosters humility in the wearer by featuring a mirrored dial to reflect the viewer along with a semi-subtle reminder of your inevitable mortal time-frame. The hour and minute discs spell out “Remember” and “You Will Die.”

His latest series has now taken this concept to consumption. Now featuring analog watches with rotating discs, each style of Mr. Jones Watches will be produced in a limited numbered series of 100. (£80 each or approximately $160) Don’t lose any more time, they’re close to selling out!

And just released this week, a series of videos by filmmaker Steve Ounanian brings the concepts to life. See them on my blog, as well as a couple other models from the series.

Alsop’s Filmport

British architect Will Alsop’s design for the new Filmport complex in Toronto has just been unveiled and is set to be one of the largest film studios on the North American continent. The building is a giant sectional arc, its outer face wrapped by punctuated Cor-Ten Steel and its inner face a glass curtain wall that, with the arc, bends to form a large outdoor space. The building, as Alsop says, “curves as it rises.” A primary goal has been to create public space in the surrounding emerging neighborhood—an admirable one, though we do wonder how much steel, and how much embodied energy, will be used.

Kameraflage

Taking advantage of the fact that digital cameras see a broader spectrum of light (i.e they see more colors) than human eyes Kameraflage takes digital photography to a new level. Engineering text or designs in these invisible colors into objects creates displays that are invisible to the naked eye yet can be seen when imaged with a digital camera. Potential applications include everything from clothing to billboards, and even movies.

Workspace Co-operative 115

Creatives are known for occupying inspiring workspaces, however what happens when it’s time to adopt the coveted freelancing lifestyle? Working from home sometimes doesn’t cut it, no matter how tricked out your work area is.

Since 2002 Workspace Co-operative 115 in London has housed 16 artists and designers, working both autonomously and cooperatively. The open and minimalist design is conducive to cooperating and sharing ideas. In fact, many scientific research labs have followed suit to promote more collaboration between scientists. An open, co-working space like 115 is the ideal solution for freelancers; a home away from home packed with other like-minded independents ready to collaborate and share the working love.

Original Post: Emma Hope

I’ve been wearing a pair of Emma Hope’s luxurious signature sneakers since last year, loving what I saw as a neat twist on the Smith aesthetic. Only after a bit of digging did I discover that she previously designed for Paul Smith anyway. With an elongated, yet low-profile shape, the shoes are taken to the next level by the materials used. Calf, pony and python come in eye-catching colors and prints like leopard skin and silver, easily trumping the much-vaunted Lanvin sneakers that have recently caused much over-excitement. Available at Hope’s London stores or online.

Philip Johnson’s Glass House — All Photos: Eirik Johnson

Earlier this week I made it up to New Canaan, Connecticutt to see Philip Johnson’s Glass House, which opens to the public for the first time this month. In the 1980s, Johnson willed the house to the National Trust for Historic Preservation, with the stipulation that he could remain in it until the time of his death. Johnson and his partner David Whitney both died in 2005, and since then the National Trust has been sprucing up the house and the other high concept structures, including a library and two mostly underground art galleries, that Johnson added to the property over the years, each new structure reflecting the next wiggle in the serpentine evolution of his architectural thinking.  (Full Story)

Fog Screen

Ilya Vedrashko, Jun 17, 2007 04:32:00 GMT

Here’s a pretty cool piece of tech. It’s a screen made of dry fog, which means it’s a screen you can walk through. More officially, “Using nothing more than tap water and ultrasonic waves, FogScreen projection screen machines employ a patented technology to create a smooth foggy airflow that captures images just like a screen. You can walk right through a FogScreen projection screen without getting wet. The microscopic fog droplets actually feel dry to the touch, just like air.” Wonder if you can combine it with Reactrix.
