NYC Alive...

“Documenting the history of New York City’s graffiti writing is inevitably subjective. The life span of the underground movement can be as brief as days or connected to the initial 60’s movement...it is unclear if it was a deliberate effort or spontaneous occurrence. Regardless of style, regardless of revival, it is survival of the fittest.” Between TAKI 183 and CORNBREAD, no one can pinpoint the pioneer, the only truth resides in a mass movement that has shaped and defined an artistic collaboration and competition that spans New York streets, haunting those that dare to understand...

Imagery at its Finest...

Never underestimate the power of a picture. The whole story is wrapped up in a single image, but it is a story that will never be the same for any two people. Each imagination is allowed to create and conclude any narrative it desires. That is the beauty of art, the freedom to allow your mind to run free...

mmmm Vogue...

I am always envious of the International Vogue covers, especially this month with the US version presenting a less then fashionable, and not so glamorous, "equestrianesque" image of Jessica Biel.

Alas, that day arrived and I was once again mesmerized and in awe of how beautifully a vision can be translate into the designs of an artist at work.

Though some may argue it's practicality as a Couture collection, "It could certainly answer every little girl's prayer"...

Ava Gardner...

In my opinion, one of the most stunning, profound and exquisite beauties that has ever graced the world with her presence...

Riding into Couture...

As the Spring/Summer 2010 Men's Collections come to a close, the much anticipated Couture Shows are able to take center stage. Starting off the theatrical overload of design is the King of Couture himself, Mr. John Galliano for Christian Dior. In an uncustomary fashion, Galliano took a step in the direction of classic rather then eccentric and his transition was welcomed with deserving applause. Th equestrian inspired collection was so perfectly executed by combining both craftsmanship and outlandish creativity. The perfect start to the Couture season to follow...
