Artist Spotlight: Tony Matelli
There is literally no information on this artist. Tony Matelli could be the pseudonym of an ethiopain goat herder and i would have no idea. It doesnt really matter though, because i have seen alot of his work, and it is amazing. Its not mind blowing from a conceptual point of view, but their is no doubting the visual power of his work. The messages might be slightly obvious, but they are universal, and executed to absolute perfection.

Hideout for Converse First String
I recently picked up both the white and black versions of this shoe, and they both have entered my top 5. The materials are not only beautiful but have a great feel, they have great added stitching and an extended sole (much like visvim kiefers), as well as other small details. They are a sneaker but also have a sophisticated and classic look. I highly recommend picking some up while you still can. Wait until you see the black joints with the included black laces. ridiculous.
Heres some spots to pick them up.

A Good Use of Time
Im one a very small group of people who have actually been lucky enough to see all 8 hours of Matthew Barneys' Cremaster series. Well it seems a kindrid spirit has actually taken the time to recreate the first 2 parts on the video game little big world. I must applaud the work and dedication it must have taken to make this happen. The second part is particularly good.

Movie Mondays
1. La Haine, Dir: Mathieu Kassovitz
You and i both are probably a bit tired of growing up in the hood movies. Still to this day, when anyone puts on a movie for a bunch of people, its always boyz n da hood, menace 2 society, kids, etc, to prove that they are real or some shit. All great movies, but we get it, so if you must go that route, stray a bit from the beaten path and screen la haine. This is one of my favorite movie. Not only is it real as fuck, its also a creative and beautiful look at morality and the overall strangeness of life.
2. Sonatine, Dir: Takeshi Kitano
This is a very interesting take on the classic gangster film. Takeshi Kitano gives one of his classic deadpan performances which drives this very original interpretation of an age old genre. This movie also contains a few scenes that are so sure to bring a smile to your face, that if they do not, i fear seriously for your well being.
3. A Zed and Two Noughts, Dir: Peter Greenaway
One of the most visually moving films ever made. Every shot in this film is jaw dropping in its own strange way. If you plan on watching the film dont view the full video i posted, but it will give you an idea of how amazing it is.
