SHOWstudio: NATALIA V:

Girl on Film

By Studio, 12:38 Wed 27 Feb 2008

In the midst of Paris Fashion Week, we are naturally more-than-preoccupied with la mode, so what better time to premier this short film created by Nick Knight for SHOWstudio? On the request of Natalia V herself, Nick Knight shot a double-page spread for her guest-edited edition of Russian Vogue. But of course he didn’t stop there, creating a short movie during the process. Nick’s film - featuring Natalia in rather fetching John Galliano point d’esprit underthings courtesy of Jonathan Kaye – is now available to all!

I detect the influence of the Russian constructivist Najenko Basilovsky, in the linear almost post-modular appropriation of a screened vignette, that has accentuated and at times negated the gaze. It begs the question, ‘is it art?’. L'art doit chercher son langage dans le langage et contre le langage. How true.

Very Nice, perfect idea. It reminds me of the Blumenfeld movies shown on showstudio with the striped glass but translated to shadows. Great Film.

Haven't you got a fashion film event of your own on this week, Benjamin?
