He produces and publishes three magazines that, though they have small print runs, have a near-religious following: the six-year-old Fanzine 137 – a compendium of everything Venegas cares about, Electric Youth (EY!) Magateen – an oversized cornucopia of adolescent boyflesh started in 2008, and the high- ly lauded Candy – the first truly queer fashion magazine on the planet, which was launched last year. His all-encompassing, erudite view of the fashion universe is the foundation for Venegas’ next big project: the fashion academy he plans to start in 2011. It will be a place where people, as he says, “who are interested in fashion learn about certain key moments from history, film and pop culture.” To get a preview of the curriculum at Professor Venegas’ School of Fashion, Suleman Anaya paid Venegas a visit at his apartment in the Madrid neighborhood of Malasaña, a wonderful space that overflows with the collected objects of his boundless curiosity.

  • Dossier De Presse Expo Dior
    EXPOSITION DIOR musée du président Jacques Chirac 1er février – 15 avril 2010 Dior, la passion créatrice L’exposition Dior présentée au musée du président Jacques Chirac est composée d’une trentaine de robes de haute couture des années 1947 à 1951 (créées par Christian Dior) et 1997 à 2009 (créées par John Galliano). Parmi elles figurent notamment la robe Ciao Ci San (2007) de l’affiche, une robe 2008 portée par Marion Cotillard et la robe 2009 portée par Monica Bellucci au Festival de Cannes. L’exposition comprend également une douzaine de flacons et coffrets de parfum, des croquis de Christian Dior et des photos de grands photographes de mode. La scénographie de l’exposition est due à René Bouchara Design. L’exposition a été conçue par huit collaborateurs de la maison Christian Dior : Olivier Bialobos, Frédéric Bourdelier, Daphné Catroux, Gérald Chevalier, Barbara Jeauffroy-Mairet, Philippe Le Moult, Vincent Leret et Soizic Pfaff. Le musée Christian Dior à Granville a aimablement participé à l'exposition. Un catalogue produit par le musée accompagne l’exposition. Il a été réalisé par la maison Christian Dior, avec des textes de Nathalie Fraser, Vincent Leret et Soizic Pfaff. En voici quelques extraits. LE FONDATEUR Christian Dior naît le 21 janvier 1905 à Granville, en Normandie, dans une famille bourgeoise aisée qui déménage à Paris lorsqu’il a cinq ans. Ses parents imaginent pour lui une carrière de diplomate ; il abandonne donc son rêve de devenir architecte et s’inscrit à Sciences Po. Mais ce n’est qu’une parade : le jeune homme, habitué des milieux artistiques, ouvre en 1928 avec des amis une première galerie d’art contemporain, où il expose le travail de Georges Braque, Fernand Léger, Maurice Utrillo, Aristide Maillol, Raoul Dufy, et de proches comme Max Jacob, Léonor Fini, Salvador Dali et Christian Bérard.

  • Exploring the Mind of Alexander Mcqueen
    Exploring the Mind of Alexander McQueen By Luz Vargas Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for a Degree in Writing Journalism 5/7/13 Thesis Advisor: Prof. Vastola 1 Abstract My thesis project is a journalism profile on the late British fashion designer Alexander McQueen. The project describes how I was introduced into McQueen‟s work, followed by a biography on the designer. A number of McQueen‟s popular collections will also be described and shown with pictures, as well as, discussing the meanings behind them. The ending will then include my experience of attending McQueen‟s exhibit in 2011. 2 Table of Contents Introduction 4 Who is Alexander McQueen? 5 History in McQueen’s collection 10 McQueen’s Artistic Vision 16 The Last Collections 25 My Experience of Savage Beauty 32 Work Cited 37 3 Introduction Doing my research on British designer Alexander McQueen was a non-stop journey. As people dream of a world beyond their existence, McQueen made his dreams a reality through his collections of work. One designer who McQueen worked with and admired was Japanese designer Koji Tatsuno. Tatsuno‟s thoughts on the designer were, “I guess I did influence his work, particularly in making fabrics three- dimensional, but also in not accepting the limitations of conventional „fashion.‟” My discovery on McQueen started when I attended his 2011 memorial exhibit called “Savage Beauty” at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The person who encouraged me to go to the exhibit was my cousin, Richard Monroy. Monroy, a freshman in Parsons The New School for Design in New York, had this to say about McQueen: “Time and time again, I always hear other students list Alexander McQueen as one of their favorite designers.
