Acne Studio's have opened their second store in Paris, located in the popular Marais District. Formerly an electrician's studio, the space keeps its industrial tones but is given a red and gold tint. In what is an otherwise ultra minimal space, Daniel Silver's raw marble sculpture stands solely.

Horst Egon Kalinowski at Rick Owens London

19/12/2011

Horst Egon Kalinowski, the German Artist best known for his geometric abstraction recently showed his latest retrospective in a somewhat different space, Rick Owen's London Flagship Store. The exhibition was made up of the artist reconstructed sculptures intermingling, salvaged skin, wood work, rusted manacles, and of course concrete plinths. The relationship was born out of Owen's ownership of numerous pieces of Kalinowski's work, but resulted in bringing the highly successful artists work to a new audience.

Rick Owens Spring/Summer 2012 collection which debuted in Milan presented a refined and masculine range full of tension and drama. Benjamin Portas (Kids In Cloaks) was obviously struck by the collection, creating some incredible illustrations of his own interpretation of range especially for Post New. Playing the drapery which Owens is known for off the glimpses of careful structure that were apparent in the range.

The Horrors Interview

Speaking with Tim Cowen

Having released their third album this year The Horrors have continued to grow and develop a distinctive sound that defines this group of five men. I caught up with Tim Cowen about all things to do with The Horrors, from their roots, the internet, to a recent project with Beck's on the Green Box Project initiative. 

 

James Oliver: I know this is a cliche question but if you wouldn't mind could you please tell us where you are all from and how did you all meet?

Thom Browne Interview

Talking Thom Browne Eyewear by DITA

Designer Thom Browne and eyewear makers DITA embarked on a new partnership for fall/winter 2011 as the two come together to debut a line of frames. The collection is defined by Browne's distinctive aesthetic, with the New York based designer leading the way in with what he refers to as "American sensibility". This combined with DITA's unquestionable craftsmanship which leaves no detail left aside or technical aspect left untested makes for a project of great distinction, and one setting a strong precedent.

The pair also have a few sister projects, the first is Sum Ink Club, a weekly collaborative drawing society, and Glaciers of Nice, a small press and internet community. Roya Azardi caught up with Sarah Rara for a chat.

Agathe Snow Interview

Agathe Snow is an artist. Her mediums are detritus, broken machines, lights, earth, cloth dancing, paint, metal, video, zip ties, food and other people. With these materials she explores ideas of decay and dissolution, the constant motion of living, of leaving a mark, universality, defining and blurring, exhaustion, endurance and anticipation. Snow is from Corsica originally, but she is a downtown New York artist through and through, even if she has moved to the countryside. It was in New York that she recognized herself as an artist, and it was New York that first recognized her.
