Via CBS Sunday Morning:
“(CBS) This morning we launch a trio of reports looking at graffiti artists who are turning a corner into the mainstream. With Serena Altschul we make the acquaintance of KAWS:
What is it … or who, to be precise … that has brought both art collectors and skater kids to this gallery [...]
Marc Jacobs is an indomitable force in creative culture. I was bouncing around YouTube over the weekend trying to find some videos of Jacobs talking about his recent work with Louis Vuitton and Stephen Sprouse. In doing so, I came across Loic Prigent’s documentary titled Marc Jacobs and Louis Vuitton.
And [...]
My longtime friend from Jamaica, Peter Dean Rickards (I first spoke to Peter in 2004 for an interview published on Freshnessmag.com), is, well, at it again (read: good news). Peter has always been an outspoken voice and lens from Jamaica as one of the country’s premier photojournalists. Most recently, both his words, and his actions, [...]
Andrew Wyeth is one of America’s greatest artists, and certainly one of my favorites. His portraits of rustic American living are simply stunning. When I think of Wyeth’s work, I think of amazing pastoral landscapes and wood-sided homes, tinged with a haunting undercurrent of darkness (Hitchcock as a painter…Edward Hopper meets Kubrick).

That a tremendous amount [...]
Nigo, the founder of A Bathing Ape, has recently launched a blog on Hiroshi Fujiwara’s “influencer matrix,” Honeyee. And it goes without saying that Nigo’s blog will garner a tremendous amount of traffic for the Japanese-based site…as it should. Yet, I truly wonder if Nigo will finally shed some light on his creative acumen–or simply [...]
Pusha and Malice of the Clipse are the two of the hardest-spitting MC’s in Hip-Hop. And…even though their rhymes usually revolve around moving “That Whaa-iiiite,” their wordplay and general maneuvers in the record industry are pretty progressive. Case and point: the Clipse are documenting the creation of their next album, Till the Casket Drops, in [...]
