A tribute to UK sneaker customizer Rob L, Puma teamed up with this devoted Clyde historian, collector and artist to develop the sought after “Archipelago Clydes”. In the late 80’s Rob L became obsessed with Puma Clydes and Suedes. He soon started collecting as well as customizing them in a unique way with Pantone ® marker pens. It worked out to be patchy on big areas, so he perfected his technique by breaking it down to smaller patches of color: the “archipelago” pattern was born. Available in blue on white or cream on white. Only 500 pairs per color, available June 21st.
A week later, on June 28th, the second colorama of the Sneaker Freaker x Puma “Jirozame” project will be released. This edition’s Blaze of Glory will be vivid black highlighted of several cleverly chosen colors. Only 504 pairs throughout the world.

Illustrative is a international forum for contemporary illustrative art, allowing established and emerging artists from the UK, France, Germany and other European countries to showcase their works. Its home base is Berlin, where Illustrative is held every year in September for three weeks followed by a further Illustrative in Paris.

Showcasing a variety of themes, styles and techniques, the show captures the status quo and the newest developments in illustrative arts. Each edition of the event is composed of a main exhibition and a series of thematic sections dedicated to specific topics and approaches (book art, fashion illustration, animation, set design, young talents, etc) . In addition to the exhibition, a series of events, discussions and lectures are held around contemporary illustration and associated areas.

Here is some cool stuff from the some of the emerging artists featured in the ” Young Talents ” section in the last Paris edition :

Christian Louboutin, one of the world, the most fetishised shoemakers, has just collaborated on a photo series with David Lynch, one of the world‚ the most fetishistic filmmakers. The resulting photographs are quite astounding: nothing short of nihilistic, mysogynistic, absolutely stunning pictures that are, in fact, fetish-inducing pieces of art in their own rite.

The exhibition shows five limited edition pairs of shoes by Louboutin alongside five signed photographs of the shoes by Lynch.
