Today I went and got a copy of Italian Vogue that has a special edition booklet that showcasing the spring runway shows of Milan, Paris, New York and London. I got it specifically to look at the patterns. Here's a couple of my favourite's from the Chloe show. Images are from style.com
Mum subscribes to Modern Painters magazine and passes them on to me once she's read them. An article in the February 2007 issue describes an exhibition at the Pinaakothek Der Modern, Munich, called 'The Poetry of Architecture'. It's about writers and poets who create fictitious architecture, and, in turn architects who are influenced by the work of writers. It showcases sketches, film, paintings and book illustrations by writers such as Flaubert, Tolkien, Kafka, Grass and many more.
The above image is by the writer Anna Seghers called 'Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves', 1925.
I thought I'd post a 3D version of this, then I promise I'll leave these spikey images alone for ever.
I decided before moving on to the next arbitrary drawing that I should give the puffer-fish shape some personality. Amazing what two eyes and a pair of lips can do....
I did this drawing through the week. I was gonna add eyes and fins to make the spikey thing a puffer-fish, but I thought it looked better just as a shape.
I've always been a huge fan of Yayoi Kusama, so I was really excited when I saw these images from her 'KUSAMATRIX' exhibition at the Mori Art Musuem, Tokoyo, 2004. These cute dolls she's made seem to have the same fashion sense as the 3D girls I made (two posts down). I reckon they could share clothes!!
I got the images from a book called 'Drop Dead Cute', Chronical Books, 2005
Easter this weekend. Yay! Good chance to eat lots of chocolate.
Looking at all these Harajuku images reminds me of the 3D girls I made over a year ago. It's a good reminder to make some more to add to the collection. Perhaps some little boys could be cute, especially now that I have a real life one to get inspired by. xxxxx
