SKIN (1/2)

“There is no greater mystery than the skin of a poet’s dream in 35 mm” – Andy Warhol

Skin… is a many layered thing; it is artistic, it is cultural, it is biological, it rests on the fragile fringe of one’s inner and outer space… not to be melodramatic, but we consider it an overlooked focus – an abstract opus – of cultural connective tissue.

So, for Art Nouveau’s "Skin" issue, we chose a duo who connected all of those elements in a most masterful manner: Chester French – black tears, faced fears, a pair so open-minded about the lovable future that their well-endowed brains have descended upon every listener’s ears.

Elsewhere in the issue we chat with Jack Davey about Motherhood, new aesthetics and new outlooks, Amon Tobin marches to the Post-Dubstep beat of his own drum and Indigo Charlie shows us her true skin. On the visual side we feature artists Zofia Bogusz, Pete Kirill, Davide Luciano and TONE and feature fashion editorials by Olivier Valsecchi, Que Duong and Francis Urrutia.
