PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT

OBEY X LOVE ME = COVET

longtime pal shepard fairey & co asked art star curtis kulig to join the ranks with the launch of the 2012 spring artist series. so far the blogs broke the capsule collection for the fellas but just wait til you see what's in store for the girls. our favorite formulation? the oxford tote.

GOING POP 

our fav sneeze magazine gave cappello a sweet x-mas present when they asked him to shoot iggy pop in late december. @kennethcappello and our miami starchild @m_rubin met up with the icon to hang for the afternoon making heads pop off on instagram cause there aren't many people we fan out on, but iggy is indeed the man.

SO GIFTED 

yes, we are beli-bers. when kenneth cappello got the call to shoot justin's holiday album, it was like a little slice of heaven. after seeing 'never say never' (amazing if you haven't seen it) this press & packaging shoot meant 10 hours of shooting, 9 wardrobe changes, 8 games of ping pong, 7 racks of wardrobe, 6 late night pizzas, 5 rows of sneakers, 4 label peeps, 3 team bieber bros, 2 very lucky fan autographs, and 1 teen dream fulfilled. muah!

WHEN THE GLOVES COME OFF 

not everyone understands our attraction to UFC and MMA, but if you share our core belief that you can push yourself while encouraging another's victory, then you're on the right track. the new documentary that looks at the triumphs and tragedy of fighter evan tanner  will make you understand what it means to be a champion. because it's not what you do, it's who you are that makes the difference.

TIME TRAVEL 

With NY Times on our minds after Cappello's shoot for them Wednesday, and spotting our author pal Andrew Kessler amongst it's pages yesterday, it feels like our planets are officially aligning. Kessler is the genius author behind Martian Summer, a book that chronicles 90 days on the Phoenix Mars Mission. And if you think that's impressive you should check out the site, the NPR coverage and the latest stunt: a single book, like literally it's the only book you can buy, at this Hudson Street Bookstore.

DOUBLE BOOKED 

karma karma is the new brainchild of an art service's creative director brendan duggan. as the grand purveyor of fine book design for art stars including christopher wool, ryan mcginley, dan colen and nate lowman, it's no wonder that his new shop at 21 downing features a curation of new publications and vintage favorites that we'd line our shelves with any day. our favorite? adventures in poetry, because ed ruscha is obviously the man. but you already knew that.
