If you speak English, this post will probably make no sense.

"Healthy" Restaurants

Hospital themed restaurants. I still haven't made up my mind, I mean, I think it's a cool concept, don't get me wrong, it's just that, hospitals are aways very cold places that smell like bleach and have white lights and well, sick people, sad people... So that said, yeah, I'd still like to try these places. I mean, why not?

Hospitalis, Latvia

Aurum/ The Clinic, Singapore

D.S Music Restaurant, Taiwan

Heart Attack Grill, Las Vegas

Taste worth dying for? You tell me. 

Butter Sculptures

In this case, believe it, it is butter!

Get yourself some bread!

Fashionable Little Treats

I love when two (or more) big forces of nature come together and create a supernova of good shit. Yes, you know, like when Them Crooked Vultures formed, or when Brad and Angelina finally got together... Two great things, one amazing result. The latest: Macarons + Fashion


Yes, yes, it's happened many times before, but I am just now laying it all down. For those who don't know, macarons are small pieces of heaven in the form of buttercream of jam sandwiched up between two almondy meringues, they come in many colors and flavors.

So that said, a very high end brand of cakes and pastries, based in france who you might have heard of, called Laduree has been making limited edition boxes of their famous macaroons with the designs of great fashion designers.

Marni

Matthew Williamson

Colette

John Galliano

I think this just proves my theory about the inevitable fusion between fashion and pastries.

Na zdraví, David Cerný!

If you ask wikipedia, David Cerny is a Jewish-Czech sculptor whose work tends to be controversial. He's done jail time for painting a tank [that was some kind of monument to the soviets] PINK. However, if you ask me, David Cerny is a guy I first heard of at the Prague episode of Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations. He told Tony that the thing he missed the most about Czech Republic when he was away was beer and girls and the places he took girls to sleep with them. He also wears a jacket similar to Julian Casablancas' military jacket during the Room On Fire tour, eats pork, and has made peeing statues.


Now, this has to be one of my favorite Cerny's:

A direct parody (mockery?) of the infamous Physical Imposibility Of Death in The Mind of Someone Living by the infamous Damien Hirst (just like the one above, but a shark instead of Hussein, you might have seen it at the the first floor at the MET...) Cerny called this one "Shark" how fitting.

 

 LOVE THIS SHIT.

Also, if you visit his web page: http://www.davidcerny.cz you'll see that he is a fun guy, just make sure your speakers are on, and don't miss out on the video section, it's brilliant. I do love pink, yes, you know it, but I also when when vandalism can transform an ordinary object into a piece of "art" (yes, I do realize this is very subjective) I just really love the idea of recycling ordinary items and making them iconic, like Warhol did or like Marc Jacobs does sometimes with things like kid's backpacks... Needless to say, if David Cerny designed a backpack I would run and buy it right now.

 

ALSO:

I haven't been able to see Metalmorphosis live yet, it is his first installation in the US, it consists of a gigantic stainless steel moving sculpture, that (at times) has the shape of a human head. It stands 25 feet tall and it's made out of seven layers that rotate randomly, switching up the sculpture's shape. It has motors installed to create motion, which is controlled by Cerny himself on the internet. Another amazing fusion between art and engineering.

I mean seriously, god BLESS Eastern Europe.
