Art of Fashion - José Teunissen on Viktor & Rolf
Curator José Teunissen about Dutch fashion designers Viktor & Rolf and their role in the world of fashion and art
They may look like classical fashion designers – the House of Viktor & Rolf isn’t a traditional house of couture at all. On the contrary, the inseparable couple designs clothes that refer mockingly to the principles of the fashion industry. The clothes are gorgeous and the mockery is serious.

Orson Welles
2009 ::: Interview
George Orson Welles (May 6, 1915 October 10, 1985), best known as Orson Welles, was an American film director, writer, actor and producer, who worked extensively in film, theatre, television, and radio. Welles was also an accomplished magician, starring in troop variety spectacles in the war years. Noted for his innovative dramatic productions as well as his distinctive voice and personality, Welles is widely acknowledged as one of the most accomplished dramatic artists of the 20th century. His first two films with RKO: Citizen Kane and The Magnificent Ambersons, are widely considered two of the greatest ever made. His other films, including Touch of Evil and Chimes at Midnight, are also considered masterpieces. He was also well-known for a radio adaptation of H. G. Wells' novel The War of the Worlds which, performed in the style of a news broadcast, reportedly caused widespread panic when listeners thought that an actual extraterrestrial invasion was in progress.
In 2002 he was voted as the greatest film director of all time in the British Film Institute's poll of Top Ten Directors.

Interview`s with Andrei Tarkovsky
"The pressure Rublev is subject to, is not an exception. An artist never works under ideal conditions. If they existed, his work wouldn`t exist, for the artist doesn`t live in a vacuum.
Some pressure must exist: the artist exists because the world is not perfect. Art would be useless if the world were perfect, as man wouldn`t look for harmony but would simply live in it.
Rt is born out of an ill designed world. This is the issue in "Rublev": the search for harmonic relationships among men between art and life, between time and history. That`s what my film is all about.

Nancy Spero
2009 ::: offart
Becoming an Artist
A pioneer of feminist art, Nancy Spero's work since the 1960s is an unapologetic statement against the pervasive abuse of power, Western privilege, and male dominance. Executed with a raw intensity on paper and in ephemeral installations, her work often draws its imagery and subject matter from current and historical events such as the torture of women in Nicaragua, the Holocaust, and the atrocities of the Vietnam War.
