10 Ans de la Galerie Magda Danysz

Jonone2 The Galerie Magda Danysz celebrates its 10 years in Paris. For the occasion, the gallery's team have prepared a big celebration to take place alongside JonOne’s solo show opening, Saturday, July 4th.

A main figure in Parisian street art, JonOne is first and foremost from New York, importing influences from his old stomping grounds.

True to his origins, the artist continues to create powerful pieces, sharing the culture of the street art movement which he defends so strongly. This next exhibition will be showing his latest creations, exposing his signature abstract style. To be his biggest show yet!

Que du Bonheur at Rosa Bonheur

Rosa-Bonheur Located inside the Buttes-Chaumont park, this bar / restaurant is Paris outside of Paris, an ideal place to go to watch the sun set over the city.

You can either sit on the grass with your friends on the hill right under the bar or join the festivities inside, as they play music of the likes of Benitez and Nebula, David Bowie, Jennifer Cardinni, Jacques Brel, and Siouxie & The Banshees.

Saturday nights are a must in the summer.

Artsetter : A New Site for Artists

Candice Thompson writing for I V Y paris

Artsetter logo Artsetter, newly online, offers a platform for people to talk and share ideas about contemporary art as well as providing its artists with a free online gallery where they can exhibit and sell their art directly to buyers.

The site works similar to the other social networking platforms you know where you register and get your own profile page. The difference is that the main focus is art (which we love and support so that’s a brilliant focus to have).

Beautifully designed and super easy to navigate, once you’ve got an idea of how it works. The focus of Artsetter is to revolutionize the art market so that the readers decide which artists should get international exposure and not a couple of faraway moguls sipping champers. Up until now the art market has been closed and just a weeny bit elitist (I’m being nice) and Artsetter wants to change that, allowing its members to vote for their favourite artists so that the choice is fair and transparent.

Petar Petrov and Romain Kremer at Men's Fashion Week SS '10

Ana Lee writing for I V Y paris

Saturday, June 27th, 2009, Petar Petrov held his fashion show at the Espace Saint Martin in the 3rd. In squelching hot heat, we waited in what looked like a Pharaoh's tomb - now turned sauna - one of the space's many themed entrance halls. As guests were seated and fanning themselves, the DJ teased us with the intro to Michael Jackson's "Beat It" in homage to the late artist, but also uplifting the mood at the end of a long day. Finally a variation of the song came on full blast and so the show began...

Petar Petrov and Romain Kremer Show

Models came down the runway sporting eyewear reminiscent of anachrome 3D glasses. The clothes came in shades of bisque and honeydew in both jersey tops and tailored cigarette trousers - note even a pair of bubble shorts hitting just above the knee. A key accessory was to wear a contrasting pair of leather lace-ups, or pointed boots to enhance a smart silhouette. While most of the line remained casually chic in muted colors, inserts of red punctuated throughout, first introduced as imprints on t-shirts to likes of bullet wounds, then full volume on a pair of patent leather pants.
