Charlie Le Mindu show at Berlin Fashion Film Festival

Berlin Fashion Film Festival Award Show had another treat for the visitor, the spectacular show by Charlie Le Mindu who presented his Haute Coiffure AW 2013 Collection 'Gold Sabah'.
The show was held at a great offsite location 'Arena Glashaus.
This was a perfect extra for the already wonderful evening.

Charlie Le Mindu created this collection in collaboration with make-up artists and body painter Isamaya Ffrench. With this collection he returns his focus to the head and the traditions of Haute Coiffure.
The unusually designed head pieces were created out of finest real human hair and are inspired through a juxtaposition of traditional African tribal culture. Charlie le Mindu,  teamed up with Atsuko Kudo to dress up the models in latex couture ensembles to showcase the collection.
This collaboration brings together two rising London based designers and artists, both known for their avant-garde creations and for providing looks for many of the world glamourous stars including Grace Jones, Beyonce, Rihanna and Lady Gaga.

Transformation and Revelation: Gormley to GaGa

Transformation and Revelation: Gormley to Gaga. UK design for performance 2007–2011

As part of the V&A’s British Design Season, this display in the Theatre and Performance Galleries taking place March 17 – September 30 will celebrate the work of over 30 of the most pioneering British theatre designers, architects and artists to have created for performance over the last four years.
The selected works on show will range from costumes for live opera and drama to video projections for stadium music concerts and will illustrate how each designer looks for new ways to transform space, light, sound and body for the stage.

Anthony Ward

Transformation and Revelation will feature drawings, photographs, scale models and costumes, as well as sound, lighting and multi-media installations to present the distinct personal vision and inspiration of each of the designers. Each display case will give a behind-the-scenes insight into the creative processes of each designer – from initial idea, early sketches and models to the final creation for live performance. A number of display cases will also be exhibited amongst the V&A collections, sited in the Paintings Gallery, within the Tapestry Gallery and along the Leighton Corridor.

Some of the highlights featured in the display will include Rae Smith’s original drawings for the digital projections in the National Theatre’s West End production of War Horse (2007), Antony Gormley’s preparatory sketches for the dance work Sutra produced by Sadler’s Wells (2008), a scale model of Ralph Koltai’s theatre designs for An English Tragedy (2008) and photographs and models of Es Devlin’s creations for Lady Gaga’s Monsterball Tour (2009-2010). Work by internationally recognised designers Marie-Jeanne Lecca, Bob Crowley, Richard Hudson and Paul Brown will also be shown alongside emerging British talents such as Hyemi Shin, overall winner of the Linbury Biennial Prize for Stage Design (2011).

Het Geluid Maastricht 'Life is too good to be true'

Last week Maastricht was marked by Festival CEMENT. I just saw few things and I am glad I finally saw 'Life is too good to be true' by Het Geluid Maastricht!

'Life is too good to be true' examines the role of truth in our contemporary (pop) culture. What begins as a portrait of a notorious liar, young American journalist Stephen Glass, becomes a tour along a group therapy session, some pink ribbons, a little Lady Gaga, lots of scary dogs, and a nightmare in a movie theatre. A tour through all the lies we tell ourselves today.

With 'Life is too good to be true / cacophony2', The Geluid Maastricht won jury and audience award during the Amsterdam Fringe Festival: the Dioraphte Amsterdam Fringe Award 2010.

Het Geluid Maastricht is an interdisciplinary theatre company, based in AINSI the old cement factory in Maastricht. And is founded in 2006 by Gable Roelofsen, Romy Roelofsen, Jacobien Elffers & Daniela Bernoulli.
