Sergej Jensen

Sergej Jensen is the winner of this years Fred Thieler Prize.
Apart from conventional materials like linen and coarse cotton, Jensen paints on jute sacks and coloured fabric, which generate a distinctive flavour of their own. Traces of wear and even damage acquire as much importance as the painterly act. But Jensen is also keen to apply painting to new fields, as we can see from his home-made fan belts, some of them in idiosyncratic forms. This desire to transgress the boundaries of genre has also led the artist to work with the media of drawing, performance, installation and music.

Bad new Coco Chanel film

CHANEL aired its new Coco Chanel film, Once Upon A Time. The short stars Keira Knightley as the label's visionary founding designer and focuses on the opening of her debut store in 1913, situated in the French seaside town of Deauville. It is soooo terrible.Check it out!
