Ryan McGinley for PUMA
Beautiful young people ride their colorfulbikes through Appletrees. They seem to somehow have forgotten to wear clothes or did they stuff them into their fancy Puma bags? This arsty farsty commercial is a modern version of Adam and Eve made by Ryan McGinley and Hans Ulrich Obrist: The young photo artist McGinley was ordered by Puma to make a spot on their new bikes and bags. The spot and the bikes and bags aswell can be seen from september on in the london based serpentine gallery run by Obrist. McGinleys visions of Love, Sex and Happiness have already been exhibited in New Yorks major exhibitions spaces. Quite interessting on one hand, but also scary on the other: Has art finally been commercialized by fashion? Well, well, well...
Stil in Berlin in Paris
Chanel invited 15 famous fashion bloggers for a promotional event to Paris. The lesser known got a nice bottle of the finest pure perfume (Coco Mademoiselle) and well the others still have to try a little harder ;-) Mary from Stil in Berlin is in Paris right now taking pictures of all the other nicely dressed blogger femmes and gents. Oh, how lucky they are...

Back from Skulptur Projekte Münster
I'm back from Münster quite exhausted, but filled with new impressions (now I just have to find the time to continue working at my master thesis...). I spent three days on a bike riding around beautiful Münster with a map to find all these more or less interessting sculptures. I felt like on a paper chase it was real fun and the weather was quite alright aswell.
That's me reflected in a sculpture by Dan Graham
After almost three years of preparation, the fourth edition of Skulptur Projekte was opened on 16 June 2007 in Münster. Thirty-six artists have been invited to realise thirty-four projects throughout the city. For the first time, the exhibition will focus more strongly on film and video, performative arts will play a key role, and the internet will serve as an expanded public platform, transporting artistic ideas beyond the urban context. Together with Brigitte Franzen, curator for contemporary art at the LWLLandesmuseum für Kunst und Kulturgeschichte, and Carina Plath, the director of the Westfälischer Kunstverein, the veteran curator Kasper König is heading this year’s exhibition, skulptur projekte münster 07.

This team has referred to Skulptur Projekte as a “long-term study” of how the artistic exploration of the public sphere – and how the public sphere itself – have changed over time. Indeed, every ten years since 1977, Skulptur Projekte has examined the ambivalent relationship between art and the public space by commissioning site-specific works that respond to the urban context and encourage active public participation. With its unique approach to this important subject, Skulptur Projekte has gained worldwide renown as one of the premier major international exhibitions. (pressrelease)

Credit all: some random flickr searchWell just wanted to say goodbye. I'm on my way to muenster to visit the skulptur projekte.

H&M trend daily
I've been to H&M today. Well I didn't buy anything, but I'm kind of in love with that coat. I would have bought the dress if it would have been on sale. I feel kind of strange about spending money on stuff I wouln't be able to wear for the next 8 months.
Well yeah and I bought a book for my boyfriend's birthday. He is into designing logos right now, so if you like stuff like that aswell I can totally recommend Logo Design by TASCHEN
. Besides many examples there's lots of theoretical stuff in it aswell.More information here
