HERACUT



Heracut is a symbiosis of 2 German graffiti artists, Akut and Hera, who have been working together since 2001.
Their work is focused on character painting. Akut started with graffiti at the young age of 14. His paintings consist of a concept that has been mapped out on a computer, high resolution photo material, and a predefined assortment of aerosol paints. Once that's done, Akut assembles his characters dot by dot.
In contrast, Hera doesn't go through the same level of preparation, and has only worked with large dimensions since he started.

COMME DES GARCONS


Text Via Wallpaper*:

True to resourceful form, Comme des Garçons has just launched its economic downturn-beating Black range from the Dover Street Market store.

Whipped up by Rei Kawakubo as an ‘emergency reaction to the recession’, the Black range has been designed to inject a little downturn-defying glamour into the ailing fashion market.

Along with today’s launch in London, eleven Black range concessions will open over the course of June, with six in Japan, one each in Seoul and Hong Kong, and two entirely new stores in Paris and New York.

KENNETH CAPPELLO


The KENNETH CAPPELLO Acid Drop exhibition showing casual snapshots of the skate scene of his youth (taken 20 years ago) only lasted a few days. So, we decided to highlight Mr. CAPPELLO's work.
This amazing photographer from Houston, former assistant of David Lachappelle, began his photography career in 2001. Since then, he has been working for iD, Men's Vogue, Vanity Fair and GQ, and has photographed music artists like Diddy, Franz Ferdinand, celebrities such as Heidi Klum and Seth Rogen, and has done ad campaigns for Adidas, Supreme, Diane de Furstenberg and Sony Bmg.

Hopefully New York galleries will give him a REAL exhibition sometime soon.
















The Fallen princesses


Dina Goldstein is based in Vancouver, B.C. She has balanced her love of unique portraits with a career in editorial and commercial photography. Her photographs have been featured in many high profile magazines, and she has received numerous awards for her commercial and creative photography. She is an award-winning photographer who has been busy shooting for more than 15 years.


The fallen Princesses place fairy tale characters in modern day senarios.

In all of the images the Princess is place in an environment that articulates her conflicts. The "...happily ever after" is replaced with realistic outcome and adresses current issues.
