An Afternoon with GLU
An afternoon with Kim-Ann Foxman at the Rooms of Red Bull on Friday afternoon, July 10th. The presentation is a taster for Kim-Ann’s DJ set later that night at GLU Magazine’s Summer Gayness Bash at Flexbar.
Kim-Ann Foxman is probably the most notorious as the faggy vocalist for neo-disco band Hercules & Love Affair. What fewer people know is that she’s also a gifted DJ and jewelry designer. GLU editor Jessica Gysel will kick-off the afternoon talking to Kim-Ann about her inspirations and ambitions, followed by a Youtube selection of her most favourite pieces of music and film. We'll end the afternoon with a mini DJ set -the real works we save for the Flexbar- followed by drinks, mingle and chat.
Program
Part 1: Rooms of Redbull, O.Z. Achterburgwal 24 (free entrance, 15.00 - 17.30)
*15.00: doors open

Joy Ahoulou and Simon Burgunder of Basel, Switzerland have been friends for several years.
They both completed a tailoring apprenticeship and later studied Fashion Design at The University of Applied Arts in Basel.
After receiving two grants for their post graduate collections from the Federal Office of Culture
they decided to work as a team and develop their own line called Ahoulou Burgunder.
Inspired by the notion of manhood, their designs explore the limits of masculinity and feminity - using fabrics from the likes of Schläpfer, Forster Rohner etc. for instance - with derision and fun.

The 16th Hour,
"unmastered musical"
Brooklyn based multi-disciplinary artist, Amber Ibarreche recently set up a new music project called The 16th Hour. It dived into my ears like a magical bullet, and it felt necessary to put some lights over it.
Where do you come from?
I'm from Atlantic Beach. A small town in Northern Fl. I moved up to NYC as soon as I dropped out of High School.
You did an exhibition at Capricious Space few months ago: "Ceremonial Entanglements", what was it all about?
Ceremonial Entanglements was a collection of fossilized interpretations of a telegraphers mind. False impressions of Anatomical slang.
You have recently started this music project: The 16th Hour. What's your artistic perspective(s) with it?
The 16th hour is a ruff draft. An unfinished sketch with sound. An unmastered musical.
What are your influences in music?
I'm more inspired than influenced by other music. Bob Dylan, Shannon Funchess of (light Asylum), Bunny, Echo and the bunnymen, shocking blue, Ride, The list is infinite.
Why is Brooklyn so intensively productive right now especially in music, with all these incredible bands making incredible sounds? It seems like you're all connected in some way?
Brooklyn is a magnetic field, A silent film with handmade soundtracks. The evidence is there and everyone takes it upon themselves to turn it into whatever they want it to be. Most everything seems to be done by instinct. We have to be connected. Whether its from afar or a personal encounter. We couldn't exist without each other. There would be know support. Therefore we'd all crumble. I try to stay away from the collective because it excludes.
Who are your artistic buddies?
Most of my artistic buddies are my close friends. Shannon, Bunny, Ry Fyan, etc...
What is happening at the 16th hour?
A lot of laughing is happening in the 16th hour. It's awaiting its final draft.

MAY #1
Sunday June 21, at 5pm
castillo/corrales, 65 rue Rébeval, 75019 Paris
This year, June is the month of May. On June 21 at 5pm, castillo/corrales celebrates May 1. Although it sounds like a typical pun à la Joe Scanlan, this is not a side event of his exhibition “Red Flags” currently on view at c/c. No, what we’re talking about is the inaugural issue of the new Paris-based art journal called May.
It’s a baptism party with no guest list, no church service and no white cake with white frosting, but season drinks served by the editors and some of the contributors of this first issue, on a sunny Sunday afternoon in Paris. We hope you can join us on this occasion to celebrate this bright initiative, and get a grasp of how this first issue was built piecemeal, and what it could mean as an editorial, or what May stands for and is aiming at.
May #1 presents texts and contributions by artists and critics, including Fulvia Carnevale, Catherine Chevalier, Jay Chung, Grand Openings, Karl Holmqvist, Michael Krebber, Anne Marquez, Jean Pierre Rehm, Clément Rodzielski, Vincent Romagny, Benjamin Thorel, Oscar Tuazon, Antek Walczak, and more...
May #1, 176 pages, Texts in English and French. 6 Euros. Distribution: Les presses du réel.

Leaves of Ash, Paris
LEAVES OF ASH
Curated by Michael Nevin & Julia Dippelhofer (THE JOURNAL, NY)
withJoe Bradley, Chris Caccamise, Hanna Sandin, Non Trubkovich, Yui Kugimiya, Eddie Martinez

Leaves of Ash
Inspired by the poet Walt Whitman, Michael Nevin and Julia Dippelhofer set out to gather the work of artists that are contributors to the journal, and their friends and neighbors in Brooklyn. The fragmented natural world, portrayed by the six artists that make up this show, is both a reflection and a fabrication, a witty questioning of their surroundings as well as an observant documentation of them. From Yui Kugimiya’s painting-based animations of cats brushing their teeth and speaking on cell phones to Kon Trubkovich’s existentialist oversized vanity plates that question the nature of identity to Joe Bradley’s symbolist canvases, there is a sense of joy in their observing, absorbing and transforming of the everyday into something transcendental and profound, something that speaks of what it is to live in a specific place, at a peculiar time.
About the journal
Since it’s inception in the winter of 1999 by Michael Nevin, then a student at Montserrat College of Art, the journal has been a vehicle for Michael’s creative surroundings. Taking form as a diary-influenced quarterly magazine, with a focus on contemporary art, the journal has evolved to collaborate with today’s most important established and emerging artists. Publishing exclusive original projects, artworks made specifically for the pages of the magazine, and artist monographs that accompany each entry, the journal has become internationally recognized for its independent and original voice. Now in its 10th year, the journal has collaborated with gallerists and curators such as Anton Kern, Gavin Brown, Clarissa Dalrymple, and Kathy Grayson, and artists such as Dash Snow, Richard Prince, Juergen Teller, Peter Coffin and Jonathan Meese.
The Journal Gallery, established in 2004 in New York’s East Village, with its current location in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, is the sister project of the journal, bringing content from the publications page’s to the walls and floor of the gallery. Artists David Shrigley, Jack Pierson, Gil Pellaton, Dash Snow, Tim Barber, Agathe Snow, Aurel Schmidt, Ken Kagami, Joe Bradley, Jonathan Meese and Miranda July have exhibited work at The Journal Gallery, while musicians such as Thurston Moore and Mark Borthwick, and bands such as Chairlift, The Sads, and TV Baby have given memorable performances there. Both the journal and The Journal Gallery are a collaborative effort by Michael Nevin and Julia Dippelhofer.

Séance spéciale présentée par Paul Otchakovsky-Laurens et David Teboul
Yves Saint-Laurent - 5, avenue Marceau
David Teboul
2000, 85 min, vidéo
Pour les 40 ans de la maison Yves Saint-Laurent, David Teboul retrace une saison complète de la vie de la maison de haute couture : les ateliers attendent les décisions du créateur ; Yves Saint-Laurent hésite, dessine et consulte. Le choix des tissus, la mise en route de la nouvelle collection. L'approche du défilé et l'appréhension qui en découle, les dernières nuits blanches avant le défilé, les changements de dernière minute. Les lendemains du défilé, la réception de la collection dans les médias et ses retombées à l'intérieur de la maison. La réalisation et la chaîne des savoir-faire à travers ses commandes jusqu' à l'essayage final de quelques modèles.

Yves Saint-Laurent - De fil en aiguille
David Teboul
2002, 25 min, vidéo
Pour la première fois, Yves Saint Laurent s’est prêté à un long entretien. Avec émotion, il évoque son enfance, son adolescence, sa carrière, sa douleur et ses bonheurs de créateur et les rencontres qui ont marqué sa vie. Après avoir réalisé deux films, Yves Saint Laurent, 5, avenue Marceau, 75116 Paris, sur l’intimité du processus de création, et Yves Saint Laurent, le temps retrouvé, sur sa vie et son œuvre, David Teboul aborde avec une grande liberté les moments forts de la vie du créateur.
