New York City Ballet: Les Ballets de Faile


During the 2013 winter season, New York City Ballet will launch a new initiative called the New York City Ballet Art Series. The series will feature annual collaborations with contemporary visual artists who will create original works inspired by NYCB that will be exhibited at the Company’s home at the David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center.

For the inaugural series, FAILE has created an exhibition titled Les Ballets de Faile, which will feature a 40-foot tower installed on the Promenade of the David H. Koch Theater for the duration of NYCB’s 2013 winter season, January 15 through February 24. The tower has been created in FAILE’s signature style, using iconography inspired by several months of research at New York City Ballet and its archives, along with FAILE’s signature library of images. The exhibition will also feature a new suite of FAILE paintings displayed in the theater’s lobbies.

About FAILE
FAILE is a Brooklyn-based artistic collaboration between Patrick McNeil and Patrick Miller. Since its inception in 1999, FAILE has become recognized as one of the leading artists in the contemporary Urban Art movement and distinguished themselves in the contemporary art world.

Their work explores duality through a fragmented style of appropriation and collage. Working in a range of media from canvas, prints and stencils to multimedia installation and sculptures, FAILE’s work is constructed from resampled visual imagery and blurs the line between “high” and “low” culture. The duo has been exhibited in various galleries, museums and non-traditional venues throughout the world, including shows at Gagosian Gallery (Los Angeles), The Tate Modern (London), and a public installation in Portugal, called “Temple,” in which Faile fabricated a full-scale church in ruins in Lisbon’s Praça dos Restauradores Square. Most recently, FAILE unveiled a new monumental work called “Wolf Within,” a 16-foot-high fiberglass, steel and concrete sculpture that was created for the 1650-acre National Garden Park in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.

The project marked the first US-Mongolian collaboration of this nature. For more information and to see other works by the artists, visit www.faile.net.

Freud / Watteau

El Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza presenta a partir del 20 de noviembre la cuarta entrega de , la serie de nuevas instalaciones de obras de las Colecciones organizada con motivo de su 20 aniversario. Este último montaje del año pone el broche de oro a doce meses de celebraciones, ya que la figura del propio Barón Hans Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza es el eje sobre el que se articula la relación entre dos grandes artistas: Lucian Freud (1922-2011) y Jean-Antoine Watteau (1684- 1721). 

En esta ocasión, la instalación incluye además dos obras invitadas: Retrato del barón H.H.Thyssen-Bornemisza (Hombre en una silla) (1985) y Dibujo de Gran interior W11 (según Watteau) (1983), préstamos de colecciones privadas. Ambas acompañarán en la sala mirador de la primera planta a otros dos cuadros de Freud y uno de Watteau pertenecientes al Museo: Retrato del barón H.H.Thyssen-Bornemisza (1981-1982), Reflejo dorado con dos niños (Autorretrato) (1965) y Pierrot contento (c. 1712). Un fragmento de este último, adquirido por el Barón Thyssen en 1977, sirvió de fondo al primer retrato que le hizo el pintor inglés entre 1981 y 1982; Freud tenía colgada en su estudio una reproducción de esta pequeño cuadro que representa a un grupo de personajes de la Commedia dell'arte en medio de un frondoso jardín; Pierrot, ataviado con su característico traje blanco, se sitúa en el centro de la composición. En su retrato, Heinrich Thyssen está colocado en el mismo lugar, incluso da la impresión de que adopta su misma postura y expresión.

Top Trends Autumn/Winter 2012 - September 2012

The stylish new “Top Trends” display at Bath & North East Somerset Council’s Fashion Museum provides a wish-list guide to the autumn/winter 2013 collections and shows how the latest fashion looks from the designer catwalks can be achieved by looking back at fashions of the past.

Six fabulous new ensembles have gone on display at the museum – housed in the Assembly Rooms in Bennett Street, Bath – and each one profiles the latest “must have” look found in fashion magazines and on the high street this season. Whether it's the sexy “Hourglass” trend, or the eccentric “Layered Luxury” look, the fashion for “The Colour Purple” or for “Gothic Leather”, all the key catwalk styles are featured in this innovative exhibit at the Fashion Museum. Other on-trend looks that are highlighted include winter florals, jewelled hair decorations and the vogue for clutch bags. But the difference here is that rather than clothes from current fashion designers and high street retailers, all the fashions on display at the Fashion Museum are historical pieces from the museum's world class collection, all styled imaginatively and given a new lease of life and a look that is 100% glamour.

Councillor Cherry Beath (Lib-Dem, Combe Down), Cabinet Member for Sustainable Development, said: “By looking to the past Bath & North East Somerset Council’s Fashion Museum has brought the displays right up to date, and at the same time given an important message that fashion can be interpretative and personal to the individual.

“Visitors can see six top fashion looks for this autumn/winter which have all been put together using historical fashions from the Fashion Museum collection. It shows how our cultural heritage is not only fascinating to discover but can also have an influence on our modern lives.” One of the most popular trends this autumn/winter is shown in the display at the Fashion Museum labelled “Capes”. Three lavishly-bejewelled and embroidered capes from the 1890s, 1920s and 1930s are already proving a hit with visitors. This season the cape is one of the items at the top of the shopping list for the fashionista. Designers who showcased this look on their catwalks include Dolce & Gabbana, Valentino and Jason Wu.

Rosemary Harden, Manager of the Fashion Museum, said: “Essentially these are ‘vintage’ clothes – a trend which has become so prevalent in fashion in recent years. But the aim too is to show how fashion is about styling and personal choice, about putting a look together yourself so as to follow the catwalk trend of the day. “The ‘Top Trends’ fashion looks at the Fashion Museum feature a mixture of styles and periods, all assembled so as to be right on trend for the autumn/winter 2012/13 season. and create a look which equals ‘fashion now!’” 

All of the exhibits in “Top Trends” are original and form part of the Fashion Museum’s designated collection of historic and contemporary dress.
