November 2008 Archives

Coming Down South for the Art Basel fun? Going to catch Madonna VIP in Rome, bring ear plugs for DJ Paul Oakenfold. Jumping on a jet with P. Diddy to party in St. Barths for New Years Eve? Oh wait, he flies coach now like the rest of us. Well, if you came back in this life  as Edie Segwich and you are the party girl queen of the social scene, don't let the recession get you down! You can still get your make-up done for free at the Mac counter and then run on over to Ilus located at  248 Elizabeth Street near Prince st, phone 646-454-1678. It is known as the "luxury for lease" boutique in Nolita that offers three-day dress rentals. Beautiful brands such as Miu Miu, Badgley Mischka, and Gucci for your viewing pleasure. But if you break it, you buy it! So don't pull a Borat and bring a bull in a china shop. You can rent a designer bag, jewelry, shawls, and clutches! Oh My! So don't worry about getting caught in the same outfit twice, you have a place to go and you'll look twice as nice! Blue dress.jpg

Shallow
The Standard, Miami welcomes Malcolm McLaren for the Miami premier of his acclaimed featured-length video work "Shallow" on Sunday, November 9th at 8pm.  "Shallow" (2007-2008) is a feature-length color video art work consisting of individual film clips sourced from erotic films of the late 1960''s.  Devised as a series of "musical paintings" in alternating slow motion tempos and precise edits, McLaren deliberately selected moments immediately preceding or following sex scenes - extending a handful of frames into nearly still portraits of seduction and artifice.


Malcolm Mclaren, founder of the Sex Pistols, was born in 1946 in London and currently lives and works in Paris and New York. The artist was invited to speak at Art Basel in the conversations lecture series on Punk and contemporary art and the following year he returned to Basel to Premier his first film, entilted Shallow. Mclaren's sex and seditionaries clothing series (originally conceived during his partnership with Vivienne Westwood) was recently exhibited in the Anglomania show at the Metropolitian Museum of Art in 2006. Upcoming Projects include the development of a stage musical about fashion.

Malcolm Mclaren has been invited to present his film work as part of The Standards Lovelife series.

Sunday, November 9th 8 o' clock
