I watched last night “Bill Cunningham-New York” and I was so enthused by this documentary about the discreet but very significant fashion photographer of Fashion. Bill Cunningham is now in his eighties, navigating the car filled streets of New York on his bicycle and taking pictures for Women’s Wear Daily, Details, and most prominently the New York Times, for which he provides two popular weekly columns, “On the Street” and “Evening Hours”.
Today I visited the studio of my friend, artist Daniel Silver. He is preparing his next show in Milan. If you do not know Dani’s work, maybe you might have seen his collages for the last Acne collection.Two fluorescent pink sculptures caught my eye as well as a bronze face on a beautifully smooth wooden plinth.
I am not an expert, though I can say that I like the raw sensuality of his sculptures . . .
I am just back from the Grayson Perry exhibition - “The tomb of the unknown craftsman” at the British Museum and this exhibition is a definite “must see”.
