(ELIO FIORUCCI in 1970)

IN REMEMBERANCE OF ELIO FIORUCCI

Founder of the Italian label in 1967 which was the first shop to expose Milan to the Swinging London styling and Americana classics such as the jeans and t-shirt and much more... Ahh the 60's.

I remember seeing the cupid like angels logos, pin -ups and overall cheeky-pop art style ads in my Seventeen -Vogue magazines in the 90's. As well as the mall displays in major department stores.

AND I LOVED IT!!

Sadly, Mr. Fiorucci had sold the company in 1990 to the Japanese group Edwin International so I never witness and a real Fiorucci in a sense but the classic pop art influence was still evident in the branding.

MALL RAT stories... I had a Fiorucci denim logo jacket with embroidered cupid logo... man... I wish I still had it... perhaps I should go to the mall or check out e-bay.

Rest in Peace Elio Fiorucci

(1935-2015)

Heaven just got a little bit more Colorful.

//ART// DONALD DRAWBERTSON ROBERTS LIVE AT COLETTE PARIS

(Photos captured by me and some helpful strangers)

DONALD DRAWBERTSON ROBERTS LIVE AT COLETTE PARIS
featuring Alex the Bear
The super talented Donald "Drawbertson" Robertson is just cool. I was super fortunate to stop by Colette early after my brisk ala fresco lunch in the Tuileries garden, where there he was in mid drawing these beautiful ladies with acrylic paint and a flat paint brush dancing away at the garage door. Beautiful Street Art.
The store was already packed... Colette is always packed, as I looked up to see his creating live in person... just darling but bold. I've only seen his work through his mush loved instagram account and it's magical in person. His in store live art making consisted of re making Colette's paper bags into one of kind bags. While promoting his newest collaboration with Smashbox; a classic red lipstick which I purchased... a girl can never have to many red lipsticks.
Plus I got to pick out a custom bag which I'm going to frame by the way.

VIVA LA WORLD CUP!!! ART BY DONALD ROBERTSON

ART BY DONALD ROBERTSON

(check his art behind the scenes on instagram)

GOOOOOOOAL

Sorry I have not been posting as much I've been on set a lot and watching the world cup games. The games are getting harder and harder as the best player in the world face each other for the ultimate win for the World cup 2014 in Brazil.

As a Centro American lady I tend always root for latin countries, but what I love the most of the world cup is that it's the only sport that unites the people of the world.

Is still way to soon to know who will be the victor.

Cheers to Futbol!!!

//ART// HAMMER MUSEUM - TEA AND MORPHINE AND TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT EXHIBITIONS

TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT...EXHIBITION

Barbara Kruger

FELIX GONZALEZ-TORRES

JENNY HOLZER

TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT: INSTITUTION, IMAGE IDEOLOGY

To be able to participate in Felix Gonzalez-Torres everlasting candy pieces. To view Jenny Holzers series of color and provocative language. What a treat.

Among the total 35 other works curated from this exhibition of contemporary work from the late 70's, 80's and 90's. Capturing real moments of angst of times from politic, aids, social, racial issues, sexism, and more. What sadly still hold emotional truth in many forms... Somethings don't sadly change as fast as we want them to. It is the artist to always keep pushing ideas.

Check it out.
