On the stage. "I'm very confident in shooting," she says. "I know how to move and how to change. At a show, it's not me. You have no expression when you're walking." What's next—"Maybe I want to get into acting? Maybe I can be an artist?"—is still undecided.Yes,Xiao Wen is only 20,has a lot of time to do what she wanna do,even in the middle school,Xiao Wen wrote down all her dreams on the back of the card,one of those dream is "I Want To Be A Model".

Hedi Slimane,i don`t know what hell he is before rescently Saint Laurent`s fashion issues becoming the must-talk topics over and over again(from Saint Laurent Fall 2013 Ready-to-wear to Marilyn Manson New Saint Laurent Campaign Star and even Saint Laurent Music Project).Maybe i was a fashion-culture idiot,lacking of fashion awareness.(because i do not konw him,a famous designer for some years).When Hedi gives Saint Laurent an entirely different design,i tell the true,for me i love it so much,Punk&rock is my cup of tea,but for Saint Laurent,i do not konw,maybe time can tell everything.Whatever,i am a blogger,i write some thing from my heart,my heart tells me i love Hedi Slimane,so i think i should write a post about him.
Have you road my post"me and my blog"? If you do,you might remember i said in that post"fashion can not exist without culture or even art.For a fashion isuue,photographer`s work is to capture the moment of Collision of fashion and culture or art.And i swear what i will prescent next have the most impressive Visual impact ever.I named this group of images "Piacasso Issue".It is done by photographer Eugenio Recuenco,in those images,different moment outfits are dissolved in Picasso`s famous paintings,meanwhile as if the protagonists in Picasso`s paintings came to life,more real,and not only artstic but also funky.I think this is so- call "Art-Fashion".
*If you always follow the rules,you will miss all the interesting things".Lady GaGa seems to be the Flaunt at this point.She never gets enough of all the novelty things,and wacky designs.Let`s Temporarily ingore judging
her style or designs she wearing.I speak of her in order to advocate this "no boundaries on design"spirit.Have a look what i`ve found for you.
*For a moment,Forget the usability，rememnber the fun
I am lucky to konw in Germany,the Grassi Museum,has an exhibition named "Starker Auftritt: Experimentelles Schuh Design(Experimental Shoe Design).during the exhibition over 150 of the world’s most bizarre kicks, many of which are one-offs.
*“The basic idea of the project is built upon the consideration of creating a moving sound sculpture from the recorded motion data of a real person. For our work we asked a Laura Keil, a berlin based dancer to interpret a musical piece – Kreukeltape by Machinenfabriek – as closely as possible with the movement of her own body. She was recorded by three depth cameras (Kinect), in which the intersection of the images was later put together to a three-dimensional volume (3d point cloud), doing so we were able to use the collected data throughout the further process. The three-dimensional image allowed us a completely free handling of the digital camera, without limitations of the perspective.”
*Before i present those tributes to David Bowie,i wanna give my personal tribute to this legend of half-century.My frist cognition of Bowie is 6 years ago,my anut brought me a DVD of David Bowie "Glass Spider" tour in Astrilia.therefore i actually do not who is David Bowie.I am amazed by the stage design and even amazed by Bowie stage expression,if let me label Bowie`s Performance on that tour,definitly is "Vivid Rock Spider".Since then,i started to konw more about Bowie.i would like to buy his CDs,and to watch his music video on Youtube.Frankly,to me i can understand more Bowie when watching his proformance than just listening to his CDs,(this i blame on my personal music awareness).The whole world must admit that Bowie is a true artist of performing.

*David Bowie`s retrospect of his Berlin Years-"Hauptstrasse"
Tim Plamper, Mimesis, 2013, Pigment Print on Museo Max Unique copy 75 x 51 cm Note: David Bowie's notorious "white diet"
*David Bowie lived in former West-Berlin at Hauptstrasse 155 in the borough Schöneberg is notorious. But the literal translation of the German street name Hauptstrasse means main road. David Bowie in mid-1976 was in many respects completely burned out. In Berlin he found his way back on the main road of his life, back to David Bowie. David Jones alias David Bowie alias Ziggy Stardust alias Thin White Duke had to escape a situation in life, that threatened to devour him – he needed tranquility and anonymity, the freedom to follow his intentions. This he found in the divided city. Hugo Wilcken wrote: "Berlin was an island, cut off from the world, but big enough to get lost in as well. Each layer of the Berlin myth seemed to reflect something in the Bowie persona – the Expressionist artists; the cabaret decadence; the Nazi megalomania; the cataclysmic destruction; the isolation behind the Wall; the Cold War depression; the ghosts who never depart. Above all, Berlin wasn't quite real." Or, as Bowie sings in Where Are We Now: "A man lost in time near KaDeWe…" In Berlin Bowie recovered, and he succeeded to create something artistically valuable and of seminal impact: The Berlin Trilogy, the three albums Low, 'Heroes' and Lodger as well as the two Iggy-Pop-albums The Idiot and Lust for Life produced by Bowie still belong to the best Rock-records of all time. With this exhibition the gallery attempt – with works of Abetz & Drescher, Claus Feldmann, Rainer Fetting, K. H. Hödicke, Ivar Kaasik, Wolfgang Neumann, Tim Plamper, Joachim Seinfeld and Snapple, with paintings, drawings, photography and some notes – to trace Bowie's time in Berlin, to approach the phenomenon Bowie, and to suggest the ambience of Berlin in the 1970s. *Article Source :http://lejournaldelaphotographie.com/entries/10719/a-tribute-to-david-bowie-hauptstrasse

If you took a look out of this window at Bowie's time in Berlin, you could see the Wall – which was just 20 meters behind the Hansa Studio – with a watchtower of the border guards of the former GDR. Around was a kind of "desert" with only some rabbits as population. It was through this window that Bowie discovered the lovers at the Wall about who he sings in his famous song 'Heroes'.
