OUTSIDE // #HughChesterman King Winter sat in his Hall one day, And he said to himself, said he, “I must admit I’ve had some fun, I’ve chilled the Earth and cooled the Sun, And not a flower or tree But wishes that my reign were done, And as long as Time and Tide shall run, I’ll go on making everyone As cold as cold can be.” There came a knock at the outer door: “Who’s there?” King Winter cried; “Open your Palace Gate,” said Spring “For you can reign no more as King, Nor longer here abide; This message from the Sun I bring, ‘The trees are green, the birds do sing; The hills with joy are echoing’: So pray, Sir—step outside!” Poem by Hugh Chesterman

FAVORITE SHOES // @jaswantshoesofficial // INFINITY // This pump has all the trimmings of a classic piece. The traditional body is made from premium satin, and features a very modern custom designed silver buckle over the toe, and curved 10 cm heel. // unfortunately a 10cm heel doesn’t really fit my current life(style) but always nice to look at and look forward to that special moment when one can wear a beautiful heel like this. ?

STURTEVANT – Gonzalez-Torres Untitled (Blue Placebo) // #gonzaleztorres ? was born in ohio (USA) and made the first years of her artists life working in new york where she began in 1965 to manually reproduce paintings and objects created by her contemporaries with results that can immediately be identified with an original – closely enough to intrigue the viewer and raise the fundamental question, what am I looking at? reflection, thinking, and analysis is the core of her work, from the paintings of the late 1960’s to the most recent videos and installations.  there is a famous Sturtevant maxim that runs, “negative definition is a very powerful philosophical position.” during the era of pop-art sturtevant made her version of warhol’s flowers, john’s flags, stella’s black and grey paintings and developed this discourse a decade later after moving to paris, with works based on marcel duchamp, joseph beuys and anselm kiefer. in the last two decades sturtevant has evolved a highly structured and rigorous exploration of current events making multi-screen video works, and installations exposing the simulacrum that is as much an attack on arts media/advertising dimension as the corrupt power structures that surround it. In 2010 sturtevant had an important exhibition titled The Razzle Dazzle of Thinking at the musee moderne de la ville de paris. the artist was awarded The Golden Lion award for lifetime achievement at the venice biennale in 2011. the moderne museet, stockholm presented an exhibition curated by daniel birnbaum in march 2012 which moved afterwards to the kunsthaus zurich. #happy10
