Artwork possibility for album (7 deadly sins)
Everyone seems to be obsessed with this 7 deadly sins thing at the moment, and whether it is true or not I'm not sure. As TPQ made clear in London, the cover of the album was being finished by an artist rather than a photographer, and while we know they had spoken to Banksy who was later rejected - this made me think of an exhibition which occurred in LA about the time of TPQ's visit - concerning...
Mercedes Helnwein - Her most recent series of drawings, The Book of Disquiet, based on the seven deadly sins, opened on December 11th, 2006, downtown Los Angeles. The exhibition got a high profile, and was attended by several celebrities, even having a review written by Jason Lee in Anthem Magazine. Her father Gottfried Helnwein is responsible for working with Marilyn Manson, Rammstein and is a well known and respected artist & photographer... Mercedes Helnwein Site: http://mercedeshelnwein.com Jason Lee Article: http://mercedeshelnwein.com/html/sta...0Magazine.html It would be interesting if she was responsible for the artwork for the Album anyway...

haha, the photography/ artist debate is a good one.. I guess it depends on your deffinition. I do regard Photography as great art... however what I believe was implied was that it would be applied arts for the cover such as drawing/painting etc

You have to be a damn good photographer to really be an artist. I like taking pictures and dabbling, but I'm certainly far from being an "artist" with my camera.

True. But would you say that the cover of Adore is or is not 'art'?

Art, in its broadest meaning, is the expression of creativity or imagination, or both -whatever the medium.

The Adore pics were OK, but nothing to write home about. That's my opinion. Submit your own before flaming.

Artwork is moot if the music sucks.
Lets hope that's not the case. |

In London, TPQ mentioned that there had been discussions with Banksy however in the end nothing came of it. She seemed to have a pretty negative attitude towards him.

I don't know, he has lost most of his charm... it is starting to wear extremely thin. There was an interesting article recently about how (he claimed) galleries where trying to destroy his guerilla art by selling it at high prices at auction, as well as in editions of prints that your average man on the street could not afford. I haven't made my mind up on him however....

i love gottfried helnwein though if this weren't his daughter i think she'd be getting totally ripped to shreds. it's only slightly different but for the most part she's doing what he's already done. their style is so similar {and i know style isn't EVERYTHING but it's a large part of your work} and that kind of sucks... but maybe she's trying to make a statement with that. who knows. all i have to say is imo they should get her old man to do it if they really did hire her. or whatever. banksy would've been pretty interesting.

Well this is about all the confirmation there can be. Taken from Sasha Grey's Myspace blog from Feb. 13:
"When I got back from SF I also did a photo-shoot for my friend's album that I am very excited about-and I am very proud of him. It was intensely creative. More details in the future…" http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu...b2db31734ce8ML |
