Den danske billedkunstner John Kørner (f. 1967) forener det klassiske landskabsmaleri med motiver fra en til tider brutal virkelighed i sin billedverden, hvor sociale og politiske emner materialiseres som problemer af både lokal og global karakter. I monografien fremhæves Kørner som multikunstner, der dog har fastholdt maleriet som den billedform, han viser en uforbeholden tillid til. Kørners farverige malerier, skulpturer, grafik og installationer bringer læseren helt ind i kunstnerens mangeårige oevre. I samtale med Marie Nipper, der kuraterede Kørners store retrospektive udstilling Altid mange problemer på Kunsthal Charlottenborg i 2017, fortæller Kørner om sin lyst til at formulere sig i rumlige installationer, der rækker ud over lærredets traditionelle grænser, og om de dramatiske højdepunkter og begivenheder, der til stadighed påvirker ham. Kurator Max Andrews (frieze) og kunstkritiker Oliver Basciano (ArtReview) reflekterer i de to essays “Kørner-problemet” og “Det gode med det onde” over Kørners mangeårige arbejde med `problemet´ som gennemgående figur. På både godt og ondt hører problemer med til det at være i verden. Problemer er vigtige, for både mennesket og kunsten.Monografien JOHN KØRNER er den mest omfattende udgivelse om kunstneren til dato.JOHN KØRNERHardcover256 siderGennemillustreretTekst på engelskUdgivet på Roulette Russe
Bugner dit klædeskab – men alligevel har du ikke noget at tage på? Keder du dig i det samme tøj og jagter nyt? Har du svært ved at skille dig af med tøj? Hader du at købe tøj – eller har du bare alt for meget af det? Så er du ikke alene. Vi bruger kun 30 procent af det tøj, vi har. Men betyder det, at de 70 procent, vi ikke bruger, så skal ud? Nej! Vi skal i stedet lære at bruge det. Men ligesom man ikke udleverer mel og vand og forventer, at alle kan bage godt brød, kræver det en opskrift, når man skal lære at bruge sit tøj.Bogens metoder klæder dig på til at se på dit tøj med nye øjne og til at sammensætte lækre outfits til alle anledninger. På den måde flyttes fokus fra forbrug til brug, så tøjinvesteringerne fremover bliver færre – og så du til gengæld lærer at investere i tøj, du mangler, og som fornyer.Gennem viden, inspiration og en række nemme metoder lærer du at style tøj, sammensætte outfits og kombinere farver af tøj, du allerede har – uafhængigt af smag og stil.Det bliver til uendelige outfits af tøjet i skabet for nul kroner og med nul procent CO2- aftryk.Med Genopdag din garderobe får du go’ stil og go’ samvittighed.Om forfatterLaura Lava er selvstændig garderobeekspert, uddannet designer fra Danmarks Designskole med sideløbende modestudier på Københavns Universitet og har arbejdet med tøj og mennesker i mere end 20 år. Hun har Facebook-gruppen ”Genopdag din Garderobe”, hvor tusindvis af kvinder inspirerer hinanden til at bruge tøjet i skabet.E-bogen er lavet i fixed format
SOSMEGAZINE #5Sorg og Samfund er et nyt litterært tidsskrift, der både bringer nyskreven poesi og kritik, såvel som oversættelser, kunst og modekritik. Vores ambition er at præsentere de nyeste strømninger i kunst, mode og digtning ved at have de folk, der skaber strømningerne til at være bidragsydere i vores magasin. Vi oplever at den tværæstetiske kunstscene i de her år er betydningsfuld og dannende for den kunstneriske refleksion, og vi vil være det tidsskrift der kan favne den faglige refleksion, de udøvende kunstere (såvel som de afdøde), den kritiske stillingtagen og samtidigt være formidlende og underholdende i forhold til en større offentlighed.
An illustrated exploration of the story behind Rolex, one of the most recognisable luxury watch brands in the world.
Tracing a career of more than thirty years, this celebration of the prodigiously talented Dutch photographer includes vibrantly colored portraiture, landscapes, still lifes, abstract compositions and fashion editorials. From her early African-inspired work to her more recent experiments in interventionist techniques, Viviane Sassen has gained international acclaim for her striking, dynamic images that explore a range of themes and subjects-from identity, gender, and the body, to race, fashion, and the environment. This retrospective book brings together both well- and lesser-known works and includes pieces from her recent series, "Paint Studies," in which early photographs are reimagined with ink and painterly marks, and "Venus and Mercury," a collection of exquisite photomontages based on the history of the Palace of Versailles. Illuminating texts by Dawn Ades, Clothilde Morette, Simon Baker, Damarice Amao, and Dan Thawley make this the definitive overview of an important and ever-evolving photographer.
Containing 300 of the most iconic images from the first decade of the magazine. Ranging from the deceptively simple to the surreal to the perennially stylish, this collection of originally commissioned photography captures the arc of an artistic adventure, a creative community at work, and one of the most enigmatic aesthetics of the era.

Textile artist Alice Fox shows how to work with found, foraged, gathered and grown materials to create fabulous textile pieces that are inspired by, and made from, nature. She encourages crafters to be open minded and experimental, using local (and sometimes) unconventional materials, working with the seasons and learning what materials are available at different times of year to ground artists in natural cycles and integrate creative activity with a strong sense of place and character.
The fourth issue of HÅNDVÆRK bookazine bears the title "Plant-based". HÅNDVÆRK bookazine has a strong root system, and this issue quite literally goes back to the roots; to nature and its materials, to the plants as a source of inspiration, as a starting point to produce materials and as a source of life – a life which depends on the survival of the bees and in general on the cycle of nature. HÅNDVÆRK bookazine no. 4 contains all of this – as always with a focus on materials and processes as a prerequisite for a sustainable practice in crafts, craftsmanship, art, and design.
Modefotografiet er et ubehandlet felt i dansk mode- og fotografihistorie. Bogen om dansk modefotografi 1910-2010 skrevet af Tove Thage, der er kunst- og kulturhistoriker med fotografi som speciale, er den første bog om de danske modefotografers billeder af moden og deres epokegørende bidrag inden for hele modefeltet. Bogen præsenterer for første gang et samlet udvalg af danske modefotografier gennem 100 år.Modefotografi er indbegrebet af elegance, luksus og forførelse. Vi oplever moden gennem synet, gennem billeder, som kalder på endnu en sans, nemlig berøringen. Dette forhold skaber et unikt fotografisk univers, et stykke scenografi, der på én gang er både visuelt og materielt. Modefotografiet er per definition avantgarde, men underlagt konsumerisme og placerer sig derfor i feltet mellem reklame og kunst. Det er både håndværk og åndværk, idet fotografen ligesom kunstneren må have en fornemmelse for både tidsånd og fremtid.I Dansk modefotografi i 100 år bringes interviews med fotografer og fotomodeller og naturligvis mængder af dragende, artistiske og til tider provokerende fotografier fra perioden. Kildematerialet er indhentet hos både private ejere og fra de offentlige samlinger.
A fascinating and inspiring guide to finding inspiration for your textile art from your domestic surroundings to create nostalgic and meaningful work using embroidery, quilting, collage and found objects.
Simon "Woody" Wood, Gründer und Herausgeber von Sneaker Freaker, dem OG Sneakermagazin, analysiert seit zwei Jahrzehnten Sneakerkult. Sein gesamter Erfahrungsschatz fließt in den neuen Band World's Greatest Sneaker Collectors: eine irre 752-Seiten-Reise durch die gut gefüllten Vitrinen und obzessiven Köpfe der geschicktesten Sammler des Planeten. Um mehr als 2.500 besondere Sneaker ins Rampenlicht zu holen, blieb zwischen Tokyo und New York, London, Philadelphia, Melbourne und Størdal keine bröckelnde Sohle verschont. Das Buch präsentiert Vintage-Klassiker, unverkäufliche Muster, handgefertigte Prototypen, sündhaft teure Collabs, Player Exclusives und abgewetzte "game-worn" Jordans mit millionenschwerem Preisschild. Die endlose Suche nach einem Lieblingssneaker von unschätzbarem Wert ist zugleich Fluch und Segen dieser besonderen Leidenschaft. Das Sammlerethos ist allgenwärtig, sie fiebern, jagen und suchen unermüdlich nach "dem einen" Schuh, der ihnen noch nicht gehört. Die in Szene gesetzten Sammlungen und Profile der Sneakerheads werden von einer Reihe Profitipps begleitet, wie man Sneaker fotografiert, richtig lagert, versichert, reinigt und auch Fälschungen vermeidet. Diese amüsanten Sammlergeschichten und unbezahlbaren Ratschläge sind die ultimative Eintrittskarte in die Welt der "true collectors".

"A personal memoir in which Lyn Slater, known on Instagram as "Accidental Icon," brings her characteristic style, optimism, forward-thinking, and rules-are-meant-to-be-broken attitude to the question of how to live boldly at any age. When Lyn Slater started her fashion blog, Accidental Icon, at age sixty-one, she discovered that followers were flocking to her account for more than just her A-list style. As Lyn flaunted gray hair, wrinkles, and a megadose of self-acceptance, they found in her an alternative model of older life: someone who defied the stereotypes, refused to become invisible, and showed that all women have the opportunity to be relevant and take major risks at any stage of their life. Youth is not the only time we can be experimental. How to Be Old tells the ten-year story of Lyn's sixties, the sometimes-glamorous, sometimes-turbulent decade of Accidental Icon. This memoir is about the hopeful and future-oriented process of reinvention. It shows readers that while you can't control everything, what you can control is the way you think about your age and the creative ways you respond to the changes in your mind and body as they happen. Rather than trying to meet standards of youth and beauty as a measure of successful aging, Lyn promotes a more inclusive and empowering standard to judge our older selves by. In this paradigm-shifting memoir, Lyn exemplifies that even with its unique challenges, being old is just like any new beginning in your life and can be the best and most invigorating of all of life's phases, full of rebellion and reinvention, connection and creativity"--

Im Jahre 1983 verriet der japanische Modeschöpfer Issey Miyake dem New Yorker, er wolle gänzlich neue Wege in der Mode beschreiten. Diesem Vorsatz blieb er treu: Mit einer einzigartigen Fusion von Poesie und Tragbarkeit verwischen seine Kreationen die Grenzen zwischen Tradition, moderner Technologie und alltäglicher Funktionalität.Dieser Band über Issey Miyakes Mode zeigt, wie intensiv er sich von 1960 bis 2022 mit Textilforschung, mit Stoffen, Strukturen und Techniken befasst hat und wie kühn er seine Vision von einem Brückenschlag zwischen Tradition und Innovation, Natur und Technologie, östlicher und westlicher Kultur realisiert hat. Midori Kitamura, die fast 50 Jahre lang mit Miyake zusammenarbeitete, zeichnet seine Karriere von der Gründung des Miyake Design Studios in Tokio über sein revolutionäres A Piece of Cloth-Konzept, die Entwürfe der Body Series der 1980er-Jahre und der Miyake Pleats-Kollektion der 1990er bis zu den praktischen Pleats Please-Alltagsstücken nach.Kulturikone Kazuko Koike führt chronologisch durch seine faszinierenden Kollektionen, seine Visionen und Inspirationen. Eine Pflichtlektüre für jeden Modeschöpfer, -studenten und -fan und eine fesselnde Hommage an einen der innovativsten Modemacher unserer Zeit.
"With pieces drawn from the extensive personal collection of Pharrell Williams, this is a stunning and unprecedented exploration of the "bling" in hip-hop culture and fashion. Few recording artists have had a greater hand in incorporating the culture of hip-hop into contemporary luxury than Pharrell Williams. Collaborating with Louis Vuitton nearly two decades ago, Pharrell was the first to have his designs integrated into the haute joaillerie of the great maisons. His innovative team-ups continue through to the present day, most memorably with Tiffany and Chanel, and the watchmaker Richard Mille. The most extravagant of these chains, rings, and pendants--crafted in precious metals and studded with gems--are as much a part of Pharrell's musical performance as they are of his personal style. His designs, which include one-off pieces such as solid-gold cases for mobile phones and handheld game consoles, have been legendary for featuring iconography of Pharrell's own brands, Billionaire Boys Club and Ice Cream. This book was originally published with two different colored covers. Customers will be shipped either of the colors at random. Featured in the book are over 100 pieces, many of which he created in tandem with some of the most recognizable designers in the industry--such as Jacob & Co, Yoon & Verbal, and Lorraine Schwartz. With frequent collaborators such as NIGOª and Tyler the Creator, Pharrell discusses his role in the evolution of hip-hop jewelry, the processes involved in the creation of his one-of-a-kind custom pieces, and the state of connoisseurship in a growing market for the most extravagant of hip-hop collectibles" --

"The book "Rihanna and the Clothes She Wears" satisfies the cravings of fans and fashion enthusiasts alike, boasting over 100 images of Rihanna and her favorite designers who have influenced her taste." - HOLA! Magazine "I grew up on a really small Island, and I didn't have a lot of access to fashion, but as far as I could remember, fashion has always been my defence mechanism. Even as a child I remember thinking, she can beat me, but she cannot beat my outfit." - Rihanna, accepting the CFDA Fashion Icon of the Year Award in 2014. From the author of the runaway bestseller Harry Styles and the Clothes He Wears comes a new, fresh look at style icon Rihanna. Rihanna has learnt how to define her own terms whatever she does - whether in the worlds of fashion, music, beauty, philanthropy, business, or activism, she is both muse and creative, a collaborator and pioneer. To date she has 135 million Instagram followers and counting. In 2022 at the age of 34, largely because of her Fenty Beauty empire, she became Forbes' youngest self-made billionaire. But it is her personal wardrobe and the way she wears it that embodies Rihanna's charisma, integrity, and humour most: everything she does reflects what she wears herself. She is a risk-taker, but as she said on the red-carpet in 2014 "you will never be stylish if you don't take risks." The gamble has paid off. Rihanna's mix-and-match method of wearing high fashion and streetwear, young designers and vintage, hip-hop classics, and avant-garde custom-made pieces, has meant that she has equal footing in both the music and fashion industries. Chairman and CEO of the LVMH group, Sidney Toledano says she is: "a style icon for today's generation". The breadth of Rihanna's fashion knowledge and style is astounding. In Rihanna and the Clothes She Wears , Terry Newman steps into the world of this fashion icon by examining her style. From couture catwalks to her own empire Fenty, political statements to high street casual, this chic book fizzles with facts about Rihanna's styling choices, presenting the star's most revered looks. With quotes from key designers, this is the perfect gift for any fan.
