For their latest, Exile invited NY-based artist and publisher (of the cult magazine, Straight To Hell) ,Billy Miller, to put together two concurrent shows. One, titled 'Lost Horizon', is inspired by the iconic novel and film of the same name, explores American Western archetypes through the lens of loss, while the second, 'Head Shop', owes its conceptual roots to legendary bohemian boutiques like London's Granny Takes a Trip, offering a crowded 'selling floor' full of work that explores the rich possibilities of the mind.

  • Alejandro Jodorowsky
    Alejandro Jodorowsky Filmmaker, writer, mime, master of tarot, psychomagician, Alejandro Jodorowsky is an artist whose robust sense of living is matched only by the exceptional breadth of his creative practice. Author of dozens of books – from philosophy to poetry – and, with the French artist Moebius, the highly praised L’incal series of graphic novels, Jodorowsky’s works are marked by a great generosity as well as a remarkable ability to provoke. His first film, Fando y Lis (1967), shocked its audience into a riot when it premiered at the Acapulco Film Festival and was subsequently banned in Mexico. His following two films, El Topo (1970) and The Holy Mountain (1973) – beloved and supported by John Lennon – became immediate cult classics, initiating in the United States the “midnight movie” phenomenon in which his films would play for years. Jodorowsky’s recent film, The Dance of Reality (2013) – based on his 2001 autobiography – is a surreal exploration of the dream territories and traumas of his childhood. “The story of my life,” he writes, “is a constant effort to expand the imagination and its limitations, to capture its therapeutic and transformative potential.” Alejandro and I met at his apartment in Paris the evening after his 85th birthday. In his office, surrounded by walls of books and esoteric objects, we discussed his films, his influences, chance and intention, gravity and reality. Photography by Interview by Giasco Michael Bertoli Nardone MICHAEL NARDONE — For The Dance of Reality, you returned to your of scissors, another time all cups.

  • THE-MARK-HOTEL-ASVOFF-March-19
    March 19, 2014 The Mark Hotel in New York By Glenn Belverio and Diane Pernet Dear Shaded Viewers, One can't imagine a better place to hang up one's mantilla after a long day of fashion film organizing and hosting. The Mark on New York's Upper East Side, just an Akoya pearl's throw from Central Park, is "New York's most boldly lavish hotel." It certainly lives up to that claim. Three nights in a cavernous suite, complete with two bathrooms and a well-appointed living room, with a show-stopping Jean-Georges restaurant only an elevator ride away, is the sort of relaxing respite one needs amidst the hustle and bustle of this often unforgiving city. The Mark is housed, as it has always been, in this beautiful 1927 landmark building. But as is a luxury hotelier's wont, the inside has been transformed with a design aesthetic that is at once soothingly modern and brazenly futuristic. http://ashadedviewonfashion.com/blog/mark-hotel-new-york-glenn-belverio-and-diane-pernet ASVOFF producer-at-large David Herman also stayed at The Mark. Hailing from Paris, it was David's first visit to NYC--and he told me everything lived up to his expectations (!) The Mark's interiors were conceived by renowned French designer Jacques Grange. (His rather impressive client list includes Yves Saint Laurent, Valentino, Karl Lagerfeld and Caroline, Princess of Monaco.) Known for his striking modernity and theatrical flair, Grange has created public spaces for The Mark that engage and delight. Not only did he oversee and design the furnishings, Grange also collaborated with Parisian design gallerist Pierre Passebon to comission a host of objets d'art, furniture and light fixtures, specially created for the hotel by renowned artists and artisans, including Ron Arad, Vladimir Kagan, Mattia Bonetti and Paul Mathieu.

  • El Museo Del Barrio Announces Spring Exhibition Lineup
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE EL MUSEO DEL BARRIO ANNOUNCES SPRING EXHIBITION LINEUP: Lucio Fontana: Spatial Environment (1968) January 23 - April 21, 2019 JODOROWSKY February 28 - May 12, 2019 NEW YORK, NY, December 4, 2018 – El Museo del Barrio is pleased to announce its spring exhibition schedule, as it ushers in its 50th anniversary celebration in 2019. From January 23 to April 21, 2019, the lineup begins with Lucio Fontana: Spatial Environment (1968), an environmental installation by the Argentine-born artist, to coincide with The Met Breur exhibition, Lucio Fontana: On the Threshold. This is followed by JODOROWSKY, the first US museum survey dedicated to artist and filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky. Organized by Guest Curator María Inés Rodríguez, JODOROWSKY will be on view from February 28 to May 12, 2019. Lucio Fontana: Spatial Environment (1968) January 23 - April 21, 2019 El Museo del Barrio will display a reconstruction of artist Lucio Fontana’s 1968 Ambiente Spaziale [Spatial Environment].

Built with the guidance of the Fondazione Lucio Fontana, the all-white Ambiente spaziale (1968) at El Museo will follow the exact specifications of the artist’s final work in the series, originally conceived and presented at Documenta 4 in Kassel, Germany shortly before Fontana’s death. The installation coincides with The Met Breur exhibition, Lucio Fontana: On the Threshold, curated by Metropolitan Museum Estrellita B. Brodsky Curator Iria Candela.
