THE FIRST LAW OF KIPPLE

Tuesday, September 16, 2014

British photographer Dan Tobin Smith is mostly known for his ultra-slick still life photographs, ranging from advertising to highly polished fashion shoots.

Friday, August 22, 2014

FOOTBALL CULTURE 02

Tuesday, July 1, 2014

Meanwhile, on yet another side of the planet, or Japan, to be precise, our football-crazed friends at Juuichi – who put together some beautiful exhibits for a mono.kultur-hosted evening during the Euro Cup 2012 – are hosting not one but two exhibitions dedicated to football graphics and paraphernalia.

TUBE MOMENTS

Friday, June 13, 2014

Subway systems always have their particular allure, and it’s funny how they come to represent the city they are in – just compare the unique smells to be found in Berlin, compared to Paris or London. What is universal is the way how we will rub shoulders with people from all walks of life, cramped [...]

As Sweet As It Gets

Saturday, April 5, 2014

As you might have noticed, we do indeed like smaller formats over here, but this new Michaël Borremans book, entitled As sweet as it gets, is indeed as sweet as it gets, as heavy as it gets (6 pounds!), as comprehensive as it gets, as mindblowing as it gets. Here’s a little taste, here’s the [...]

Smart New World Exhibition

Thursday, April 3, 2014

Digital Düsseldorf. There may not be too many things to love Düsseldorf for. However, we like to not think “Köproll“, but Becherklasse. And then of course, there’s Elodie Evers who set up something rather smart at Kunsthalle starting this friday:
