Neo Rauch

German artist Neo Rauch uses a ‘distinctive palette of bright acidic colors contrasting with dark, ominous shadows’ to conjure up a ‘parallel world that is full of paradoxes. Although many elements of Rauch’s scenes seem familiar, his landscapes are populated by figures that seems alienated from each other, and the normal is mixed freely with the bizarre’.

I wasn’t aware of who Emilio Pucci was until my work was compared to his for the hundredth time. I’m happy to have anyone make that connection. I’m not a high fashion person. I keep to the basics and feel alright about it. The introduction to his work was mind blowing for me. Not only for the rich colors and patterns, but how those things worked with the human form. It was an interesting revelation, and one that has sparked more interest for me to explore fashion as a medium for art.

Ok, a confession. And one made with the full weight of its implications bearing down on me like a load of feathers. Extra soft ones of course (well, it is my confession). When I see bands play – and I mean good bands; bands with rhythm – my right leg gyrates like a stunned jellyfish. Read more

What do you get when you combine the most sophisticated rock band of the past thirty years with a smooth jiving, foul mouthed rapper with enough testosterone to make up for the rock band’s distinct lack of it? Hmmm? I present Jaydiohead. The greatest mash-up since the great potato wars of 2008.

The Swimmers

I live the upbeat, feel good tempo of the new single — A Hundred Hearts — from Philly group, The Swimmers. Off their latest album, People Are Soft, this song is a strangely fitting anthem for the blustery day outside.
