Nudist Camp III

1. Norbert Bisky
2. Winston Chmielinski
3. Hervé Caillon

Today, I am doing what humankind has done for decades and centuries. Naturalism, nudism, exhibitionism. In contrary to the works shown above, my own examination of the subject is of narcissistic nature only.

Naturgewalten

1. Keith Sonnier
2. Yves Tanguy

Before we get physical again. Figurative abstraction. Something that looks like a beach. Or a writing in the sky. Two bodies (of work) completing each other. What would be the correspondent runway look?

Mutant Engineering II

Photos Viviane Sassen, Marcelo Capizzano

One day, aliens will save the human race from extinction. They will collect and exhibit our precious relicts of art and culture. And put us in cute little outdoor parks. Women will collect solar energy and men will filter the water.

Other Landscapes

Artworks David Schnell

Global warming and geoengineering. Today left me with doubt and fear. Glaciers are melting. And with them knowledge and culture will be eliminated. Please re-evaluate your actions. Right now. Not in ten years, not in thirty.

Thermo Conversion Fight

Yohji Yamamoto Fall/Winter 2011 vs. Global Warming

Yohji trusts in global warming. According to his latest offering, women will go out in sheer black negligé dresses in winter 2011. The hair probably already indicating the change of nature.

Citrus Sinensis

1. Unknown
2. Ann Demeulemeester, Petar Petrov & Yves Saint Laurent Fall/Winter 2011
3. Nude with oranges, Henri Matisse
4. Damir Doma, Stella McCartney & Alexander Wang Spring/Summer 2011

Unexpectedly a fruit's colour has blossomed. In other words: A colour's fruit has been picked and eaten up. Its sticky juice running down our chins. Leaving sweet traces on our body.

Ruhe

Artworks Hiroshi Sugimoto, Peter Churcher

Giving myself a break.

Hunting High And Low

Artworks Christopher Russell

Standards are high. But it's lonely up there. It's a tough way. And when you look down upon the scenery you realize it's all tiny and doesn't really matter. How to loose one's demands? Tonight, I wanna be with the mountains.

Wooden Veneer Fight

Rodarte Spring/Summer 2011 vs. Bavarian balcony

Absolutely loved this collection. Carvings on planks as dresses. One cannot deny a certain resemblance to the traditional Bavarian balcony. Or the typical yet brutal wall systems Germans are so fond of. But yes, bad childhood memories can be transformed into renewed contexts of beauty.

Sex In The Woods

1. Dries van Noten Fall/Winter 2007 & Comme des Garçons Fall/Winter 2010
2. Raf Simons Fall/Winter 2002 & Rag & Bone Fall/Winter 2010

I am still turned on by the idea of creating a forest worker. To make it easier attaining this look I have compiled a few hard-on looks from my vast fashion archive. Work it!

Somehow Ethereal

Collage Dries van Noten Spring/Summer 2011

The reason why I feel attracted to acid denim might probably be its sinister resemblance to a profane thing such as clouds. Carrying a moment of childish astonishment. And at the same time referring to a political ethos.

Forbidden Love III

Isn't it nice to have obsessions? Some unfulfilled fantasies. Things that shouldn't be but manifest themselves irreparably. Just like a tribal tattoo on tanned skin.
/HORST

Love Marriage

Stella McCartney Spring/Summer 2011 & Petar Petrov Spring/Summer 2011

Two households, both alike in dignity.
In fair Paris, where we lay our scene.
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny.
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes.
A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life.
/HORST
