WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?
2012 is the year mixed media exploded onto the pages of our favorite fashion magazines. Whether painted, illustrated, layered, collaged, or all of the above, editors internationally took a cue from the art world to offer up some truly original and visually enticing stories. In contrast to continually seeing the same superstar photogs, the name of the game has been collaboration for some time, combining different sensibilities and perspectives for new insights into the nature of fashion editorial. With so many elements in play it is easy to butcher the image with overkill, but we found plenty of successes in 2012. Some of our favorite conspirators in this trend include Damien Blottiere, Ina Jung, and Rosanna Webster.
Moving forward into 2013, the art meets fashion trend will continue to appeal to our highest aspirations when turning the pages of a magazine. Portraying objects of desire and still life’s go hand and hand, widening the path for conceptual photography in the fashion realm, and impacting the print world in a more prominent way. Dutch duo Scheltens & Abbenes continued to lead the way in this manner in 2012, as did Peter Lippmann and Dominik Tarabanski. We hope to see the interplay of the different realms continue its fruition in the new year.

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
i agree4
