Ohne Titel Interview
Ohne Titel is the brainchild of Flora Gill and Alexa Adams, who met at Parson Design School and started the brand while working together for Karl Lagerfeld. After only 5 years, Ohne Tittle has developed a reputation for it's smart design, architectural yet feminine aesthetic and attention to detail which is quite extraordinary. Alexa and Flora were nice enough to answer a few questions following their recent showing in New York to talk about the new collection, their collaboration with Albertus Swanepoel and what drives their design.

Wim Wenders Interview
22/02/2012Pina will ultimately go down as not only as one of Wim Wenders great films, but the beginning of a new era in his career. The director of such classics as Paris, Texas and Wings of Desire wanted to make a film documenting the work of the his longtime friend and legendary choreographer Pina Bausch. It was a project that the two of them had been trying to make for over twenty years, but couldn’t figure out how to make it work. It wasn’t until Wenders saw his first 3D film that he finally knew how to make the film.

Simon Porte Jacquemus Interview
21/02/2012Every now and then a designer comes along that stands out above the rest and we all know that there's no such thing as too much hype. Simon Porter Jacquemus's brand has very quickly become a favorite of fashion editors around the world, but there's no corporate push making this happen and no backlash toward the hype...just a pure love and admiration of the young French designers work. There's something truly refined and beautiful about Jacquemus, but at the same time the clothes manage to fit into the deconstructed world which we live.

Olaf Breuning | Interview
Olaf Breuning as an artist and a person is refreshing, his work is incredibly honest and unfailingly joyous, reflecting the fact that he truly could not be doing anything but making art. His creative process is his life force and it shows. Born in Switzerland, Olaf now lives and works in New York working between film, photography, installation, sculpture, drawing or what ever medium excites him. He was nice enough to chat with me about his new film, Hip-hop and why he makes art.

20/02/2012New York's Gavin Brown's Enterprises currently plays host to Thai artist Udomsak Krisanamis's 'Space Out' exhibition. The artist's work has long since been characterized by his specific use of collage, creating obsessive patterns made from newspaper, noodles, cellophane and paint. Krisanamis is perhaps Thailand's greatest art export and we took the opportunity to talk to him about his unique and consistent style.
