Louise Goldin Joins New York Fashion Week Schedule

Among the new (yet familiar) faces on the New York Fashion Week schedule are Louise Goldin, the knitwear designer who made a splash on the London scene when she showed there from 2006 to 2010. Goldin recently married a New Yorker and is now based here. For More

This I like.

Here are some personal (as opposed to professional) goals I have set for myself through the end of 2012:

Mon, 20 Aug 2012 12:32:37 -0400

Move back to NYC.
Start homebrewing.
Open an online store where I sell accessories and deconstructed t-shirts.
Buy a sewing machine so I can relearn how to sew and make some stuff beyond the above.
Start learning French because I love French films and I want to be able to dick around on the Internet while I watch them.
Get to a point where I can make a list of what I am looking for in a person to love, because I am only willing (and possibly able) to do the serious relationship thing one more time, so I need to get it right.
Update this blog regularly.

When I saw this picture, my first thought was, “I’ve been there,” but I couldn’t remember where it was. Anyway, I was right.

a hard spill in designer shoes:

sarazucker:

obviously, i feel it necessary to read any article with a title that speaks to my inner core (you have no idea how many times i fall on a weekly basis), but i’ve always been curious about ‘what exactly happened with sigerson morrison’? here is the answer to all of your questions…and it isn’t good. in fact, it’s quite sad. i truly hope that kari sigerson and miranda morrison can encounter the experience they once had.

This is really depressing.

Jose Clemente Orozco’s mural series The Epic of American Civilization is housed in the basement of Baker-Berry Library at Dartmouth College. Currently closed to the public because of renovations, the murals were painted between 1932 and 1934 and present a vibrant, unsettling history of the Americas.

In 1936, Jackson Pollock traveled to Dartmouth to see the Orozco murals, and much of his work of that time was influenced by his experience of Orozco’s paintings. Last month, I was lucky to see pieces from the artists side by side in last month’s exhibition at Dartmouth’s Hood Museum, Pollock and Orozco: Men of Fire.

Obviously something I need to own.

I bought a pair of Birkenstocks. I haven’t had Birkenstocks since I was a badly dressed teenager.

I also haven’t owned shorts since then, but now have three pair in rotation.

This all is very suspect.

Just wanted to mention that I called this in April. I want a pair of baby blue ones.

Q&A: Yayoi Kusama, Pop Artist

Eyeing one of the galleries stacked with her psychedelic paintings at Manhattan’s Whitney Museum of Art Monday afternoon, Yayoi Kusama said, “I’m genius.”

At 83, the beyond-prolific artist wasn’t overstating her career.

WWD: It has been many years since you were in New York. What strikes you about how the city has changed?
Yayoi Kusama: When I was living here in the Sixties, it was like the city was at the utmost point of the world. There was more energy. Today it lacks energy.

WWD: You once said that had it not been for art you would have killed yourself. Do you still feel that way?
Y.K.: I feel that way exactly. There’s not one day that I don’t think about death. The fact that I paint helps me to keep these ideas away and continue.

For More

I saw her exhibition at the Tate Modern in London back in March, and it is a must-see. Can’t wait to see it again in New York.
