Horst Decoration, Issue 2




1. Nesting Coffee Table Frederick Kiesler, Posters Bruce Weber
2. Table Josef Hoffmann, Clock Henry van de Velde, Satyr statue Desiderío da Firenze
3. Urinal Marcel Duchamp, Image Helmut Lang

Welcome to my brutalist home. Strictly dominated by clinical surfaces. Concrete, metal, steel and stone. A marbelous bathroom with ready-made urinal. A Bruce Weber poster wall and an erotic satyr statue adding warmth and depth.

Season's Greetings









Photos Bruce Weber

Only 24 days left. The world is covered in whiteness. And minus degrees make me wear an all-in-one at night. Time for a flashback and the Abercrombie & Fitch Christmas catalogue from 1999.

A Short History Of Twins In Popular Culture














1. Karim Sadli, A Magazine curated by Riccardo Tisci, 2008
2. Lanvin, Spring/Summer 2007 Ad Campaign
3. Comme des Garçons, Spring/Summer 2011
4. Marilyn Minter, Twins, 2006
5. Yves Saint Laurent, Spring/Summer 1996 Ad Campaign
6. The Stoltzfus Twins, Bruce Weber, 1982
7. Olsen Twins
8. Stanley Kubrick, The Shining, 1980

As an aesthetic fetish of the fashion industry and grotesque vision in photography and music television the twin unites both: disgust and fascination. A multi-faceted phenomenon, engrained with celebrity and gossip culture as well as the pornographic context. Which iconic imagery must be appended to this catalogue?

Kitten Love XXVIII



Photos Bruce Weber, Unknown

Hmm, so the decision is made: I do need leopard print bed sheets. And Brad Pitt.

Absolutism



Bruce Weber Roberto Bolle: An Athlete in Tights

Another essential addition to any photography/art collection. A beautiful selection and assemblage of photographs, drawings, commentary and further aesthetic references. Unifying everything we want and desire from a Bruce Weber monograph.
