Helado de Agua de Mar Caribe (Caribbean Seawater Ice Cream), 2002.

“One of Henríquez’s best known artworks was indeed conceived as a humorous commentary on the stereotype of the Caribbean as being “hot-blooded.” Helado de agua del mar Caribe (Caribbean Sea Water Ice Cream), 2002, which the artist presented at Art Chicago several years ago, is actual ice cream made with Caribbean sea water. For the opening of the exhibition in September, The Bronx Museum of the Arts is shipping six gallons of seawater from the Dominican Republic to fabricate the artwork in collaboration with the Bronx’s venerable Delicioso Coco Helado company.” (source)

Gustav Klimt Paintings Re-Created With Models And Props Part II by Inge Prader

Notable Austrian photographer Inge Prader (previously featured here) has brought to life some of the most famous Gustav Klimt paintings. Using human models and props, he has recreated the iconic paintings of Klimt’s signature “golden phase” for the Stylebible of 2015’s Life Ball in Vienna, a highly acclaimed annual AIDS charity event. The famous works such as Klimt’s ‘Death and Life’, ‘Beethoven Frieze’ and ‘Danae’ bring back the original artist’s gilded sensual paintings.

The Vienna secession is resurrected once again under the orchestration of Prader’s supervision and detailed imagery. The semi-nude models dressed elaborately as warriors and erotic figures and the posed beside intricate props do justice to Gustav Klimt masterpieces. With the overwhelming presence of gold tones set in the costumes, ornaments and set, the gaudy decorations and backdrops, the classic struggle of the physical attainment to paradise is restored under the guidance of Inge Prader.

Charlotte Rampling photographed by Helmut Newton for Vogue US July 1976

In a July 1976 feature story—shot by Helmut Newton at her St.-Tropez villa just a few years after her star-making turn in The Night Porter—a then-30-year-old Rampling is not only called “the sexiest woman of the seventies,” but she also reveals exactly how she maintains her beauty from the inside out.
