This collection called “I see a halo around you”, by designer YunSun Jang imagines the jewels of the future. These creations, although impractical for public transport, are breathtaking by their delicacy and finesse. An almost divine selection which obviously reminds the celestial aureoles that carry the gods.

Antony Gormley (London, 1950) is widely acclaimed for his sculptures, installations and public artworks that investigate the relationship of the human body to space. His work has developed the potential opened up by sculpture since the 1960s through a critical engagement with both his own body and those of others in a way that confronts fundamental questions of where human being stands in relation to nature and the cosmos.
Gormley’s work has been widely exhibited throughout the UK and internationally and has also participated in major group shows such as the Venice Biennale and Documenta 8 among many others.

The short fashion film { THE BOX }, is the official teaser for the latest cooperative venture between the Berlin fashion label Perret Schaad and the Hamburg shoemaker Ludwig Görtz GmbH.
The film announces the exclusive shoe collection “Görtz designed by Perret Schaad” at the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in Berlin. This is where, on 7th July, Perret Schaad will present the collection for the coming spring & summer season 2012 for the first time.
This mysterious and atmospheric fashion film was produced for Görtz and Perret Schaad by Riese Farbaute, based in Hamburg. It was directed by Cristian Straub, who is currently much in demand as a fashion film director and producer.
The project was coordinated by the Medienwert agency. Medienwerft is one of Germany’s most experienced online agencies and for Görtz they are primarily responsible for communication via social media and the development of an online format.
Bureaucratics is a project by photographer Jan Banning consisting of a book and exhibition containing 50 photographs, the product of an anarchist’s heart, a historian’s mind and an artist’s eye. It is a comparative photographic study of the culture, rituals and symbols of state civil administrations and its servants in eight countries on five continents, selected on the basis of political, historical and cultural considerations: Bolivia, China, France, India, Liberia, Russia, the United States, and Yemen.
Jan Banning was born in The Netherlands in 1954, from Dutch-East-Indies immigrant parents. He studied social and economic history at the University of Nijmegen and has been working as a photographer since 1981.
