london: rock n roll on brick lane

berlin: the business student look

berlin: urban fisherman soldier type look

berlin: narcissister at Hof 96

i was really impressed with this girl. if u have a chance to see her perform i recommend you check her out. www.narcissister.com

ah let's try something new, shall we? how about, instead of going to parties and checking out people's clothes on the street we go to a concert and live life in the spirit of rocknroll? i spent most of my teenaged youth singing in a band and even though we totally sucked (naturally) it was a really good time. i miss it. so i'm making a shout out: if you
a) are in berlin
b) play an instrument that is relevant to a rock band
c) are good enough at it to come up with great songs while only rehearsing very sporadically
d) are ready to ROCK (and i dont mean hipsterish indie slow-rock)
d) and are down for forming a band with someone who is as fickle, obnoxious and difficult as i am (really a success recipe for the singer of a rock band) then get in touch.

ps: cheers to absolut vodka for giving me free tickets to see wolfmother in concert (yeah!)

THE STREET WALKER

Rakefet - Jerusalem, Yesterday

לרוב, הנני משתדלת לגרום למצולמים שלי להרגיש בנוח ככל הניתן. הסיטואציה הינה מאיימת קמעה עבור רבים מעוברי האורח, על אחת כמה וכמה כאלו שאינם מכירים את התחום, ועל כן אימצתי לי שיטות שונות שכל מטרתן היא להפחית מעט מן המתיחות האופיינית עם כיוונה של המצלמה.

אולם דווקא במקרה הנוכחי, היה משהו מעניין בחוסר הנינוחות של רקפת, שלא פסקה מלהביט מצד לצד בשתי עיניה, בתקווה למצוא איזושהי ישועה שם-באופק. וכך, מצאתי את עצמי נמנעת מאותן השיטות הבדוקות, שכבר הפכו לטבע שני בעת התבוננותי דרך העדשה.

Assia - Jerusalem, Last Week

Omer - Jerusalem, Last Week

לא יכולתי שלא להבחין בשילוב יוצא הדופן בין קשיחות לרכות, בין צבעים חמים לקרים.

מחוויות צייד הפרצופים בארץ הקודש

אם פתחתי את השבוע עם סקוט שומן, אין סיומת מושלמת עבורו ממקבילו, איוון רודיק, שפקד את ארץ הקודש בחודש שעבר. בסיום ביקורו ערכתי עמו ראיון שהתפרסם אתמול במוסף סגנון.

כאשר סיפר לי רודיק כי בכוונתו להגיע לתל אביב, לא יכולתי שלא לתהות כיצד תצטייר בבלוגו עיר החוף החמה. למרבה הצער, ההתלהבות סביב תל אביב שאפפה את צייד הפרצופים כאשר נפגשנו בשבוע האופנה, התחלפה בפגישתנו, ביום האחרון לשהייתו בישראל, לאכזבה מרה. עם הדברים הקשים שאמר בפניי על האופנה התל-אביבית ועל התל-אביבים עצמם, ושהתפרסמו אתמול, קשה לי שלא להסכים.

אני מניחה שרוב קוראי הכתבה יקטלגו את רודיק במהירות כ"אנטישמי" וכ"עוכר ישראלי", במקום להפנות שאלות כלפי עצמם בנוגע לאופן בו הם תופשים את עולם האופנה ואת לבושם שלהם. לעניות דעתי, רודיק אבחן היטב את חוסר הנכונות הישראלית לקחת סיכונים אופנתיים מחד, ולהפנות גב לקלאסיקות אופנתיות מאידך. השילוב של שניהם יוצר לבוש משמים במקרה הטוב וחסר טעם במקרה הרע.

שלא תטעו, בשנים האחרונות למדתי להעריך את האופנה הישראלית, ללמוד על יתרונותיה, ולהיות עדה להתפתחותה המהירה. עם זאת, אני עדיין סבורה שיש לנו דבר או שניים ללמוד מן האקספירמנטליות הלונדונית, מהשיק הפריזאי, ומהטרנדיות השטוקהולמית. מה דעתכם?

Striped Jacket - Berlin, Neue Schonhauser St

... The Sartorialist Book Has Arrived

בסוף השבוע נחת בפתח ביתי (במהירות ראויה לציון), ספרו החדש של סקוט שומן, הלוא הוא הסרטוריאליסט. הקלות המפתיעה בה מצאתי את הקופסא של אמזון מונחת על מיטתי, הינה אנטי קליימקס מוחלט לחיפושים המפרכים שערכתי בשלושת החודשים האחרונים בניסיון נואש לאתר אותו.

הכל התחיל בווינה, אז סיפרו לי כי הספר הגיע זה עתה לקולט (שבפריז). מיד עם נחיתתי על אדמת צרפת, כיתתי רגליי במהירות אל החנות המובטחת, שם התברר לי כי הספר כבר אזל. אולם היה זה רק הסיפתח: במרוצת אותו החודש, התברר לי כי הספר אזל לא רק מקולט אלא גם מכל חנות אחרת בפריז ובברלין. לא נתתי לתחושת ההחמצה לייאש אותי, והחלטתי להביא את ההר אל מוחמד (או: להזמין את הספר אלי).

כשידי הרועדות אחזו בו בהתרגשות, התחלתי לתור אחר ארבע התמונות האהובות עלי, המוצגות כאן לפניכם. שלוש מתוכן אותרו בהצלחה. ועל אף התמונה החסרה (למטה משמאל), ספרו של שומן מצליח לקבץ את הזכורים שבצילומיו ל-507 עמודים עטופים בכריכה רכה. מזמן לא מצאתי תוספת כה נאה למדף הספרים המתפקע שלי.

Red - Jerusalem

Twenties Blue - Jerusalem, Yesterday

Simple&Chic - Berlin, Neue Schönhauser Straße

Gentleman Biker - Vienna, Innere Stadt

גברברי וינה אוהבים חליפות; בין אם מדובר בזקני העיר שלוגמים אספרסו צמוק במשך שעות כשלצווארם העבה קשור פפיון קטן מידות, בין אם מדובר בגבר בגיל העמידה לבוש בג'קט ועניבה ירוקים ובמכנסיים סגולים, ובין אם מדובר בסטודנט צעיר בעל חליפה צרה - רובם ככולם יתהלכו ברחובות הבירה האוסטרית עם לבוש שמבחינת רובנו, כאן בארץ, מיועד לכל הפחות לחתונה של החבר הכי טוב.

Parisait - Paris, Rue Saint-Honoré

במהלך היומיים שעמדו לרשותי בפריז הקיץ, נפגשתי עם כנרת רוזנבלום הלוא היא "פריזאית". התהלכנו בין רחוב ריבולי לסנט הונורה, ובדרכנו לקולט (לתור אחר ספרו של סקוט שומן), קלטו עיני את עלמת החן הנ"ל. את הכתבה שהתקבלה בסופו של דבר אתם יכולים לקרוא בדף הפייסבוק.

Shiran Manya - Tel Aviv, Bar Giora Street

תמיד בשחור, תמיד עמוסת תכשיטים, תמיד אותו סגנון שכל כך מייחד אותה, ושמצליח לעניין בכל פעם מחדש.

Tel Aviv, Ahad Ha'am Street

איילת גלאור, בעלת החנות סטלה

Redheaded Lior - Tel Aviv, Dizengoff St

ליאור יציב, המתרגמת האדמונית של הבלוג הזה, הופכת גם את השמלה הפשוטה ביותר לפריט שאחרים יחשקו ויעריכו. נדמה שכל בחירה שתעשה תצליח להביא עמה ניחוח נעים של נעורים ושל קיץ - גם כאשר אמצע אוקטובר ומזג האוויר ממאן להתקרר.

Green Sweet Pea - Haifa, Carmel Center

תמונה ראשונה בארץ מזה זמן רב (התגעגעתי), וצילום ראשון בצעצוע החדש שלי: canon 5d mark2.

תאריך שובי לארץ תוכנן בהתאם לפסטיבל הסרטים החיפאי, שהפך עבורי זה מכבר למסורת. וכביתר הפעמים שהגעתי לעיר הצפונית בשנה האחרונה, גם הפעם נפגשנו אפונה היקרה ואני לכוס של קפה קר וקפה ברד. כמובן שלא יכולתי לעמוד בפני ההדפס הירקרק שעל שמלתה של דר, וגם לא בפני שרווליה התפוחים והפרנזים שכיסו את נעליה, וגררתי אותה לרחוב הסמוך על מנת לחנוך את מצלמתי החדשה. רק כששבתי הבייתה התחוור לי שאין לי צל של מושג היכן צילמתי אותה.

anecdote

People’s Park in Berkeley has a revolutionary history and serves as a sanctuary for the homeless. Because of its history and political status, long-time residents are defiant against developers who want to profit from this centrally located block of land, while city and community officials often claim it’s dangerous and a drug haven, and the [...]

It’s back. And in a new incarnation. My new blog, The Holden Archive, is all about fashion, art & style (still with a San Francisco bent, I’m screwed if I ever leave this city). Come visit!

Ukrainian Women = HOT

And I don’t just say that because I am one. From Sparkwood & 21: via www.planet-mag.com “In the Ukraine, a country where females are victims of sexual trafficking and gender oppression, a new tribe of empowered women is emerging. Calling themselves the “Asgarda”, the women seek complete autonomy from men. Residing in the Carpathian Mountains, the tribe is [...]

Jim Houser and Gary Baseman at Jonathan Levine

This weekend is the weekend for my favorite artists showing in major cities I can't get to because I'm dealing with this vertigo bullshit again... OK, sorry, got a little personal there. Two great shows open at Jonathan Levine this weekend. Gary Baseman is curating a group show and Jim Houser has a solo show.

Kill Pixie in Berlin at MK Gallery

Mark Whalen aka Kill Pixie has a new solo show at MK Gallery in Berlin opening this Saturday. Kill Pixie: Supreme Beings
Exhibition Dates: 24 October – 19 December 2009

In his latest body of work, Kill Pixie’s masked humanoid characters inhabit celestial pools and spas in a futuristic bathhouse where gravity loses all meaning. The humorous candy-colored geometric paintings depict scenes of excessive human consumption and obsession with objects, as the characters worship the almighty dollar. Inspired by folk art, mechanical sciences, structures, and urban culture, Kill Pixie says, “My work is an exploration of the objects and the elements that repeat to infinity, and I am using these elements to illustrate what I am trying to communicate.”

Where the Wild Things Are

Where the Wild Things Are is probably most everyone I know that is around my age or younger's favorite childhood book. Obviously it's one of mine. The story is sweet and the illustrations are amazing. The thought of making this amazing book into a film is a daunting task. Although after watching the trailer I believe Spike Jonze is up to the task. Using an Arcade Fire track as the theme doesn't hurt either. Where the Wild Things Are comes out October 16th. I can hardly wait.

Andy Kehoe

I love the work of Portland artist Andy Kehoe. You can buy prints of his work through his Etsy shop.

Ferris Plock+Kelly Tunstall’s SEA OF LOVE

This Thursday is the opening of "Sea of Love" at 111 Minna. The latest large-scale collaborative exhibition by San Francisco-based artists Ferris Plock and Kelly Tunstall, "Sea of Love" is an entirely new body of work that explores relationships between sailors and mermaids, stories of lost love and misguided navigation, the diversity of creatures inhabiting the oceans and their individual roles as different vessels of possibility.

Henry Gunderson

Henry Gunderson is not just amazingly talented, but half my age (am I getting old or is he just really young, please don't answer that). He has a solo show coming up this week Thursday July 23rd at Fecal Face Dot Gallery.

Business Savvy Artist?

I know, crazy concept, an artist with business savvy. Yet another reason why Jeff Soto is one of my favorite current artists. The click above is from The RunUp. It's a great movie that includes a number of talented artists.

Shoe Whore

So I never really got the shoe whore thing. I didn't think it would happen to me. I guess it's inevitable. The last few months have been a little out of control. I'm going to sell some stuff today.
Yesterday made it official for me. I bought a fantastic pair of Chie Mihara mary janes and then the cute pair of Prada above for a great price off this blog that I'm apprehensive to share with the world. ;)

Miles Thompson at La Luz de Jesus Gallery

The fun and fabulous Miles Thompson has a solo show opening tonight in LA at the La Luz de Jesus Gallery. Check it out.

Jeff Soto tattoo

Cut! Hamburg: Karlotta

Cut!

The first thing that catches my eye when photographing on the streets is a person's hair. A great haircut is almost always accompanied by a great sense of style, and anyone that's been to Berlin can notice almost immediately that there are some truly unique (for better or for worse) hairstyles on the streets. And so, while we're forced to cover up in bulky winter coats during these winter months, I've decided to start a new side-feature on Stil in Berlin, which I'm calling 'Cut!' So here's the first.

Oranienstraße: Sienna, Artist from Alaska
