Chix Don´t Art, Fashion, Music BOOK LAUNCH @ 10 Corso Como, Milan

 
 

 

(below text as published on www.ashadviewonfashion.com)

We´re still buzzing from our trip to Vienna, which merged into our trip to 10 Corso Como, Milan, where we performed a lecture Happening, to launch our new book Chicks on Speed Don´t Art, Fashion, Music (booth Clibborn Editions/DCA)....but let me go back..... In Vienna, we were invited to install our installation piece, as part of Figura cuncta videntis (THE ALL SEEING EYE) homage to Christophe Schlingenseif (at Thyssen Bornemisza Art Contemporary) over the 3 days we jammed with JAPANTHER live, partied with our newly found art gang, (including artists; Neven Aladag, Palli Banine & Davíð Örn Halldórsson, Ragnar Kjartansson, Francesca Thyssen and TBA 21 crew) took over the Secession anual Art dinner and just put Vienna in a spin...which is still spinning we hear from Francesca Thyssen! All this energy then carried onto 10 Corso Como, where we met with the lovely Federico Poletti, who together with Diane and Daniela Zenone supported the initial concept of our Happening and we send you chicks kisses.

We were so kindly hosted in the 10 Corso Como Mega Art Craft complex by Carla Souzanni and stayed in the creative and immaculate 3 rooms, which is like no where else on the plannet! Every inch of Melissa and my rooms, from ceiling to floor and wall to wall, was conceptually and aesthetically conceived, you feel "corsocomofied" as if starring in a fashion film of your very own!

We began the Lecture Happening with a singing introductory song ART RULES, a whimsical song about the art market, which quickly broke into a keynote presentation musical, ending with a humorous series of questions/answers, mainly led by Max Kibardin  and hipster Milanese Art scene. Sabrina Vanotti, Max´s wife and incredible fashion director (Velvet magazine) set out to transform us Chicks for the night, as Melissa put it "twisted & strange & a surprise" we wore Prada for the first time, together with Max made, haute couture shoes, matching the High Heeled shoe guitar, which was installed in a glass box on one of the tables, surrounded by our latest bags VOODOO CHANEL tote bags, oh....i wonder what karl will think of that!? Carla definitely liked them!

"THE NAKED PERFORMER" @ GIRL MONSTER, INKONST, MALMO

THE STAGE IS YOURS!     (The first Interactive Chicks on Speed art-performance)

The Naked Performer was our first DO IT YOURSELF STAGE SHOW, blurring the lines between "audience" and performer, where the audience became the art stars.

Jobs on Stage: bar tenders with schnaps cocain pistols, wanna be dancers, mobile disco ball slaves, "creative rape", unfamous action painters, all the way, naked or not, everybody entering the performance space was hired for the job, anything said, performed or not performed, was part of the performance...including breaking that girls mobile phone! oops!

A.L. Steiner´s.......slide lecture in the dark, whilst melissa begins to show audience performers how to paint....

The beautiful and artful, Ann-Liv Young aka Feminasty Sherrie was Career adviser; Sherrie starts looking for art workers who always dreamt of being famous painters, dancers, bar tenders to follow C.O.S. instructions very attentively!!!!

Sherrie and A.L. interviewing the audience, "Is it more comfortable to perform naked on stage?"
