N-Sphere
a world behind curtains
"imagine that everything and everyone is at hand's reach from you.  that is the n-sphere. essentially, this object defines all that reaches out from a persons mind and forms their own personal universe.

a monthly magazine featuring visual arts in various forms,from the old to the new, from the camera to the needle point.  gradually expanding to form its own galaxy, the n-sphere includes an interconnected section with the music world."

"In August 2010, The Spheres present N-Sphere, the gallery's monthly magazine. Gradually expanding to form its own galaxy, the N-Sphere includes an interconnected section with the music world.  Main features for this month are: What should not lie beneath.  The hidden SEEN of FRANKLYN, Exclusive Interview with Albin Julius from Der Blutharsch, Max Kuiper, Komar&Melamid's Post-Utopia, John Cage's Silence, Matthias Bernhard.

The August guest exhibit features Christopher Ilth, an artist currently residing in Chicago, United States.  Throwing together imagery and carved aesthetics, his artwork manages to suck in, mingle and spew out the looking glass into the mind, his pieces bringing forth an opaque transparency. Visit the guest gallery here.  An interview with the artist is included in the current issue of N-Sphere."

fashion friday :: vivalamoda magazine

VivaLaModa Magazine
"a bi-monthly magazine created to show the greatest
and coolest fashionable and hand made things that we can find.
But we don’t want to talk only about fashion
or beautiful stuff we find.
This magazine will also host articles about green products,
toys, decoration, product reviews and many more things.
We want to support indie designers and crafters who make things
with their own hands (not to forget we also love vintage!),
and give readers information about the handmade world.

This magazine is made with love, patience and a good eye
for great products..
and for that I have to thank all the fantastic collaborators.
You can find them on the last pages of the magazine
and in the collaborators section.
The rest of work: putting everything together, editing all the magazine,
designing the look and some articles, is up to me, Ainhoa, the editor!"

Oh my, the beauty of Danny Roberts
"I've always been one for creative projects and art and crafts.
When I was five, I convinced myself that pouring mud onto cardboard
was how to make concrete.
I began drawing as a young child, but it wasn't until a
few years ago when I decided to practice everyday,
that I started getting better.
I would draw some days for 15 hours straight
till my hands were swollen shut."

One of the most useful and respected analyses of
vanguardism as a cultural phenomenon remains
the Italian essayist Renato Poggioli's 1962 book
Teoria dell'arte d'avanguardia (The Theory of the Avant-Garde).
Surveying the historical, social, psychological and philosophical aspects of vanguardism, Poggioli reaches beyond individual instances of art, poetry and music to show that vanguardists may be seen as sharing certain ideals or values which are manifested in the non-conformist lifestyles they adopted, vanguard culture being shown to be a variety or subcategory of Bohemianism.

Other authors have attempted to both clarify
and extend Poggioli's study. The German literary critic
Peter Bürger's Theory of the Avant-Garde (1974)
looks at the Establishment's embrace of socially critical
works of art and suggests that in complicity with capitalism,
"art as an institution neutralizes the political content of the individual work."
