Major buzz for footwear releases is typically reserved for basketball kicks and limited-edition sneakers, not serious running shoes. Then again, not every running shoe is designed with Harajuku street wear king Hiroshi Fujiwara at the helm. A collaboration between Fujiwara, Nike designer Tinker Hatfield and Nike Inc. CEO Mark Parker, the limited-edition HTM Flyknit collection hit shelves this week with crazy, cutting-edge technology to match its makers' pedigree.
The 30-year-old Sydney-born designer-cum-artist got his start by working with friends at Ksubi, and then with the legendary Hedi Silmane at Dior Homme in Paris. But in 2010, he found his true calling.
Interview hops over the Atlantic to bring you all you need to know about London Fashion Week—the newest designers, trends and accessories. Next stop: Milan.
When the three-part melodies of Quilt begin to play on their debut, self-titled album, the whole world seems to fade away into its psychedelic, folk-filled sound reminiscent of simpler times.
Kids These Days is a Chicago-based rap-rock-jazz ensemble built of keyboards, guitar, bass, drums, trumpets, trombones and a lyricist—and that's not even the coolest thing about them.
For this week's Casting Call, we have decided to tackle 33 Dias, Spanish director Carlos Saura's upcoming Picasso biopic. Thankfully, the film is not a cradle-to-grave story, but will instead focus on Picasso's Spanish civil war mural, Guernica (1937), which took Picasso only 33 days (!) to paint.
An eye for an eye may be an archaic form of justice, but in The Forgiveness of Blood, director Joshua Marston explores how the ancient tradition can wreak havoc on a family caught between the old ways and the new. Shot in Albania, the film follows Nik, a high school student with a penchant for Facebook, who becomes the victim of a centuries-old law after his father kills a neighbor.
This week: Salmon Fishing in the Yemen vs. The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, two British feel-good flicks about attempts to introduce new species (salmon, old white people) into unfamiliar habitats (Yemen, India).
Interview spoke to Wanderlust director David Wain about working too much, the benefits of balancing smaller projects with bigger films, and his beef with the legendary (and deceased) Ingmar Bergman.
In Scotty Bower's memoir Full Service: My Adventures in Hollywood and the Secret Sex Lives of the Stars (Grove/Atlantic), the 89 year-old gloriously and honestly recounts his many debaucherous memories to Lionel Friedberg, who has helped arrange them into a stunning text.
This week, Fashion Week closed with a bang when Guns N' Roses at Hiro Ballroom sent New York into shockwaves—everyone from Justin Timberlake to Mario Sorrenti to Matt Damon and Sienna Milller attended, and the boys put on a rockin' show.
In memory of our founder, Andy Warhol, who died 25 years ago today, we revisit some of our favorite moments from Andy's many interviews for Interview.
In Adam Wilson's Flatscreen (Harper Perennial), TV, drugs and suburban malaise are darkly, sometimes uproariously melded to create a moody coming-of-age novel.
Here's our compendium of pop-culture news you may have missed while you were doing more important things over the long weekend.
The art world too global for you? Each week, Interview highlights in pictures the shows you'd want to see—if you could jetset from one international art hub to the next.
Quietly and concisely, Davis Rhodes tweaks perception using his ephemeral hardedge abstractions. With "Untitled '12," his second solo show at Team Gallery, which opens tonight, the New York-based Rhodes presents nine new foamcore works. These industrially produced materials lean on the wall, lightweight but heavy with presence. Rhodes describes the feeling in the room as "total freedom from hierarchy, alienation or the pressure of identity."
The great British painter Lucian Freud (1922—2011) and grandson of Sigmund Freud has a retrospective exhibition of his portraits at London's National Portrait Gallery [through May 27]. Over 100 of the late artist's portraits have been sourced from collectors and galleries across the globe, including an unfinished work begun shortly before his death in July 2011.
In her piece, Dead-End, Infinite (2011) at "III," a group exhibition at Martos Gallery, sculptor Rochelle Goldberg takes on the daunting task of criticizing the apotheosis of materials in iconic 20th-century works such as Brancusi's Endless Column, which rises seamlessly from the ground without a trace of a struggle against gravity.
"Basquiat showed up at a party at my house with [performance artist/drug dealer] Rockets Redglare and Rockets had a gun on him," recalled Robert Longo. "I asked Rockets to leave the party. I said to Jean-Michel, ‘Either he has to go or you both have to go.' It was intense. Rockets left."
It wasn't a given that Adele, the 22-year-old British songstress, would name her new album 21. After the success of her debut 19, which won her the best new artist and best female pop vocal performance awards at the 2009 Grammys, she was asked if she would continue the trend.
