The belgian designer’s spring collection might be a picture of cool minimalism and elegant ingenuity, but he still knows how to get his hands dirty
Blacks, browns, grays, and creams dominated the runways this week. But the Nordic country's long, brutal winters mean that many designers account for functionality first, while Sweden's long history of embracing a spirit of collectivism over individuality is also a reflected in their fashion. The norm is not to stand out, but rather to blend in.
Model Dree Hemingway had never designed before when French label Sandro asked her to collaborate on a capsule collection. "It was and still is so new and exciting," she tells Interview. "There's the process of getting all the ideas and inspiration, and then having to translate that through into a collection, which can be a little overwhelming. After that having to find the color palettes, fabrics, shapes, etc."
Ah, the wonders of Middle Eastern life—at least as viewed by London-bred rapper/singer M.I.A., who today released the video for her latest single, "Bad Girls."
While dance floors around the world surrendered to Martin Solveig's infectious dance smash "Hello" last summer, the French DJ and producer headed to the studio alongside Madonna (and past Madonna producer, William Øribit) to begin working on her 12th studio album, MDNA.
Killing Pablo, Joe Carahan's Pablo Escobar film based on Mark Bowden's book of the same name, has a tumultuous development history. Originally announced in 2007 as one of two competing Escobar movies (the other one, Escobar, was also indefinitely shelved), Pablo's producer went bankrupt in 2008 and not much has been heard of the project since.
This week: Moonrise Kingdom vs. Wanderlust, two movies about couples trekking out for epic adventures in nature, with hilarious actors to fill in the rest of the movie magic.
Borderline Films' latest offering, Campos' Simon Killer, was picked up not by any major studio's indie distribution shingle but rather by the vaunted IFC Films—perhaps suggesting that Borderline's true home will always be within the ultra-indie world.
The young Sophie Stuckey is an old pro at horror films. The 20-year-old actress from Camden co-starred as a child actress on films such as Close Your Eyes opposite Goran Visnjic and 2005's The Dark, in which she played Maria Bello's young daughter.
Visionary comedians Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim stormed Sundance this year with their debut feature Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie, an absurdly funny film made on a low budget, and also co-starred in The Comedy, a drama.
With a background in theater, soaps, and indies, Peter Vack's major TV comedic debut is a slight change of pace for the USC grad and native New Yorker, who was reciting Shakespeare with seasoned actors while his high-school peers toiled away with the Sparknotes.
After suffering through years of fourth-place finishes, NBC primetime has set its sights on the invigorating Smash to save the network from ratings purgatory.
Writer Ramona Ausubel defies the harnesses of history with her debut novel, No One is Here Except All of Us. During World War II, an isolated Jewish village in Romania decides to ignore the horrors of the real world and start over from scratch.
Last night we attended a screening of Rachel Zoe's new PSA video for the Abzyme Research Foundation at the Crosby Street Hotel. If you are wondering what uber-stylist Rachel Bananas Zoe is doing in a PSA, we were, too; the Abzyme Research Foundation is the first charitable cause to which Zoe has lent her name, and it is an admirable cause indeed.
Mike Kelley, acclaimed installation artist and musician, has died at the age of 58, of an apparent suicide. In 2009, Interview editor Glenn O'Brien sat down with Kelley, an artist whose aesthetic he appraised as "Joseph Beuys meets James Brown, or Marcel Duchamp meets The Contortions."
Alec Soth spent five years seeking out men who were hiding from the world, and tonight he shows the results at his first show at Sean Kelly Gallery. The legendary Minneapolis-based photographer of Americana returns to New York to show "Broken Manual" for the first time in its entirety. (It's previously only shown in parts at the Walker Center for the Arts, and in a special-edition book.)
Tim Barber's recent book of photographs isn't self-titled. It's just called Untitled Photographs. Published with OHWOW, the monograph originated with an 2010 exhibition of Barber's work at the OHWOW gallery in Miami, and this week, Barber is launching the book in Europe with a presentation at London gallery Mother.
Design Voices, a new e-book from Coolhunting contributor Anna Carnick and Print contributing editor Jeremy Lehrer, sets out to illustrate today's design scene moment by consulting some of the world's most iconic creators, among them Maarten Baas, Dror Benshetrit, Giulio Cappellini, Milton Glaser, Ross Lovegrove, Stefan Sagmeister, Massimo Vignelli, and Tokujin Yoshioka.
For "Being With You," his solo exhibition at Lehmann Maupin, Sandro Kopp has taken the idea of the mediated portrait into the digital era. Consisting of a series of real-time portraits that Kopp did of subjects that sat for him not in the flesh, but rather via Skype, the exhibition marries the practice of 19th century oil painting with modern communication.
Although a certain nebbishy auteur has come to stand as the paradigm of the New York director, there are arguably two other candidates well suited for that honor. Martin Scorsese and Spike Lee were not only both raised in the city, but they've built a close friendship while comparing notes over the years.
