    Here’s what we came up with for the MyDesign design fair edition 2008, in Lausanne, Switzerland. The project itself was been a nightmare to handle as I was working on the Palais de Tokyo thingy at the same time and trying to PR a bit at the ArtBasel art fair, but the result is pretty OK.
    If anyone’s interested in buying a copy, just drop a line: info@sangbleu.com

    With a special thanx for Rinzing who designed this poster within a pretty unrealistic deadline!

  6. today i met fergus

    by Maxime Buechi

    As I was about to try and blag my way inside Art Unlimited in Basel, Switzerland, from afar, I saw a geezer who looked familiar. Cryptic handmade tattoos, long hair, svelte silhouette. As I took a few steps towards him I realized this probably was Fergus, this mysterious guy I had received a couple of pictures of in for SBII. I had to figure this out. With the nicest smile Fergus confirmed he indeed was… Fergus.
    What an amazing and pleasant surprise. Not only does he have one of the most interesting tattoo collection I’ve had the pleasure to see, but he’s the nicest person ever.

    Tomorrow, we will meet at the Patty Smith signing then have a little interview for SB III. Clare Hilland will take some portraits of him to go with it. Today was a good day.

  10. Fetish #2

    by Adrian Wilson

    “…I’ve got a fetish for Brando
    A fetish for cats
    A fetish for ladies in
    Christian Dior hats
    I’ve got a fetish and
    that means I’m sick

    I’ve got a fetish for black
    A fetish for green
    A fetish for those arty magazines…”

  12. Make up Artistry

    by Adrian Wilson

    When make up is applied flawlessly it is easy to overlook the expertise involved.

    An acute understanding of the surface, instruments and materials, gradations of shade, unclouded lines and subtle suggestion combine to modify contour, poise and countenance while questioning the infinite variants by which we perceive beauty.

    It is a temporary tattoo and once removed the evidence of its existence becomes an object of beauty in itself.


  13. Fetish #1

    by Adrian Wilson

    :an object or bodily part whose real or fantasized presence is psychologically necessary for sexual gratification and that is an object of fixation to the extent that it may interfere with complete sexual expression
