Rezension: „What Artists Wear“ von Charlie Porter
Jean-Michel Basquiat mochte seine Kleidung so, wie er seine Kunst mochte: „überdimensioniert, schief, Chaos im Griff.“ Seine mit Farbe befleckten, von Fugen verbrannten Outfits waren hochqualifiziert und oft teuer – er bevorzugte die Designs von Rei Kawakubo für Comme des Garçons –, aber sie verloren nie den Geist seiner früheren Obdachlosigkeit: „Ziehen Sie sich immer nur für den Fall an“, er d sagen. „Vielleicht muss ich auf der Straße schlafen.“

How a Forgotten Bit of Infrastructure Became a Symbol of Civic Pride
In the last few weeks of 2020, as another coronavirus surge was putting a stop to parties, shuttering businesses, and rendering work and school and most of social life remote, the artist Juliet Ames spied a salt box at West Thirty-sixth Street and Roland Avenue, in Baltimore, situated between Café Hon and Holy Frijoles, near a restaurant called Frazier’s on the Avenue. Salt boxes are, or have become, a Baltimore specialty. Nine hundred or so of these bespoke wooden bins—about
The Influencers of Their Day
The word “salon,” for a starry convocation of creative types, intelligentsia, and patrons, has never firmly penetrated English. It retains a pair of transatlantic wet feet from the phenomenon’s storied annals, chiefly in France, since the eighteenth century. So it was that the all-time most glamorous and consequential American instance, thriving in New York between 1915 and 1920, centered on Europeans in temporary flight from the miseries

The Tragic Misfit Behind “Harriet the Spy”
There is a certain alchemy by which canonical characters, especially the figures of children’s literature, come to exist outside of history. Stripped of their initial contexts, and cleansed of any outdated particularities, they seem to endure in an eternal present tense. Take, for instance, the nineteen-sixties’ most iconic underage sleuth, Harriet M. Welsch, a.k.a. Harriet the Spy. In 1996, Nickelodeon transported her out of the mid-century, with a goofy live-action film starring Michelle Trachtenberg. Animation lends itself more readily to
DC Comics’ Artists and a Writer on Their Friendship
Each installment of “The Friendship Files” features a conversation between The Atlantic’s Julie Beck and two or more friends, exploring the history and significance of their relationship.
This week she talks with three artists and one writer, who all work on titles for DC Comics, about their collaboration on the page and their friendship off of it. They discuss how working in comics can be isolating, how rare it is to meet your collaborators, and how their
Pokémon and the First Wave of Digital Nostalgia
A year ago, Marcus Dewdney, an artist in Toronto, started a project inspired by Pokémon, the beloved series of monster-collecting video games that launched on Game Boy in the United States in 1998. He pulled up images from the 2001 games Pokémon Gold and Silver and, using the image editor paint.net, copied them in his own style, illuminating the rudimentary, decades-old pixelated landscapes with richer colors and patterns. Scant grids of symbolic leaves from the original game became swirls of
Die 8 größten Nageltrends für 2022, laut Market & Nail Artists — Siehe Fotos
Einige würden argumentieren, dass neutrale Nagellacke nie aus der Mode gekommen sind, aber es scheint, dass im neuen Jahr die Liebe der Menschen zu Nude-Tönen nur noch stärker wird. Abgeschwächte Beige- und Hellrosatöne waren während der New York Fashion Week bei Ulla Johnson, Jason Wu und Tory Burch auf dem Laufsteg Frühjahr/Sommer 2022 zu sehen. Bei den Shows von Ulla Johnson und Jason Wu verwendete die Nagelkünstlerin Deborah Lippman ihr markeneigenes Gel Lab Pro Polish in Brand New Way, einem
Behind the Trees, a Brooklyn Artists’ Collective
Hidden by overgrown trees and flowering shrubs in need of a haircut, 70 Lefferts Place, in Brooklyn’s Clinton Hill, can be hard to find amid its neighboring rowhouses of brick and brownstone.
But pass through a rusting iron gate and beneath an unruly canopy of greenery, and you find yourself gawking up at a kind of secret artistic treehouse, a sprawling antebellum Italianate villa painted a jaunty yellow. This is the primary home of the AllInOne Collective, a vibrant community
The Epic Style of Kerry James Marshall
In our mezzanine conversation, Marshall told me that the “Rythm Mastr” story line has become increasingly complex. There are now two different groups of people trying to stop the gang violence—Farell and his crew of Afrocentric drummers, and a posse of wheelchair-bound tech wizards, victims of drive-by shootings, who use weaponized robots against gangs. He also said that Chicago is no longer where it happens. “I’ve substituted a city and a world that I created myself,” he said. “It’s invention
