Three years ago I went to the exhibition 'David Bowie Is' at The Museu del Disseny de Barcelona. The retrospective created a comprehensive audio-visual exhibition experience using multimedia technology at the most advanced technical level, what a experience! The exhibition also focuses on his collaborative work with artists and designers, and demonstrates how his work has both influenced and been influenced by wider movements in art, design, music, and theater. Here some of the references that I found most interesting and visually appealing, enjoy!

¿Qué queremos decir cuando una artista es 'muy femenina'? Pues yo diría que es el punto justo entre lo bello y lo fuerte que es, lo raro dentro de lo cotidiano y simplemente, una mujer hablando estéticamente. Mar Ordonez, con su vertiente más artística (ya que también fotografía editoriales de moda), nos deleita con una obra que muestra ese toque agridulce que no subestima nuestra capacidad para ver.

'Así es como será nuestra generación cuando nos retiremos' dice VICE sobre este proyecto fotográfico de Alex de Mora, y no les falta razón. Aunque mi madre iba de punky y aunque las mallas negras siguen siendo su básico de armario, ya no lleva el pelo de colores... La fotografía de estudio con fondos de color amables, con un contraste moderado, ese punto kitsch y un tema concurrido (la eterna juventud) hacen de esta editorial una serie curiosa.

'This is what our generation will look like when we retire' says VICE about this photograph project of Alex de Mora, and they are right. Although my mother was punk and although the black tights are still her basic closet, at least she is no longer wearing dye hair... The studio photography with friendly color backgrounds, with moderate contrast, has a kitsch vibe and a theme (eternal youth) make this editorial a curious series.
