The first comprehensive book on the work of Jun Takahashi of UNDERCOVER an icon of Harajuku streetwear and the presumptive heir to the heavy mantle of Japanese deconstruction Takahashi Jun s fashion is not born out of an excessively intellectualized agenda While not quite populist his generative influences are instead romantic even gothic A fixture of the Paris collections for more than ten years plus seventeen uninterrupted seasons in Tokyo prior to that Takahashi s life s work confirms a maturation from self conscious artifice and rebel pastiche to a steely withering elegance all his own Hailing from Gunma Prefecture like his friend NIGO of A Bathing Ape Takahashi s long association with the undisputed king of Ura Harajuku in the early 1990s is now the stuff of local fashion lore But Takahashi would blaze an entirely different path to legend and notoriety The violent rending and hasty reassembly that characterized his early work its calculated imperfections and sutured seams have given way to collections that he himself now calls sexy and feminine UNDERCOVER is insightfully curated with fashion filled chapters devoted to Takahashi s sketches graphic work collaborations and most innovative designs to date Lavishly illustrated with more than 200 p

El inspirador libro de toda una mujer hecha a sí misma. Maye Musk, supermodelo internacional, dietista y empresaria comparte en este libro su historia más personal y aquello aprendido durante toda una vida viviendo peligrosamente. A sus 71 años, Maye Musk es una supermodelo, dietista y emprendedora internacionalmente exitosa. Su estilo de vida de jet set, su prospero negocio, sus numerosas portadas de revistas y el exito meteorico de sus tres hijos (Elon, Kimbal y Tosca) podrian darnos a entender que la vida siempre ha sido facil para ella, pero nada mas alejado de la realidad: se convirtio en madre soltera a los treinta y un años, y tuvo que luchar duramente para poder sobrevivir, evitar la pobreza y mantener a sus tres hijos. Tambien se enfronto a los problemas de visibilidad como modelo de talla grande y supero el tema tabu del envejecimiento dentro de la industria de la moda. Su carrera tambien se ha enfocado al mundo de la nutricion como respetada dietista en mas de ocho ciudades distintas de tres paises diferentes. Como bien saben sus miles de seguidores en redes sociales, Maye Musk es en si misma una sincera y practica fuente de consejos, y en este libro nos muestra como las decisiones que tomo en cada decada pudieron dar resultados sorprendentes y emocionantes que transformaron su vida. En Una mujer, un plan Maye comparte las experiencias de toda una vida, transmitiendo un conocimiento ganado con el esfuerzo de toda una carrera (cuanto mas trabajes, mas suerte tendras), toda una familia (deja que las personas que amas sigan su propio camino), salud (no hay pildora magica) y aventura (deja espacio para el descubrimiento, pero siempre estate preparado para cualquier cosa). Con su espiritu indomable y su actitud sensata, Maye nos presenta su sabiduria de vida y nos ayuda a entender que no podemos controlar todo lo que nos sucede en la vida, pero si podemos tener la vida que deseamos, sea a la edad que sea. Todo lo que tienes que hacer es crear tu propio plan.Han dicho sobre Una mujer, un plan: Calido, honesto y sincero. Escrito con grandes dosis de humor, este libro ofrece al lector una vida llena de consejos esenciales.Diane Von Furstenberg He admirado toda mi vida a Maye Musk, tanto como modelo como mujer. Siempre ha sido una gran inspiracion para las vidas de muchas mujeres y su gran sabiduria cobra vida en cada pagina de este libro.Karlie Kloss La belleza impactante de Maye Musk es la prueba viviente de que una alimentacion saludable es el principio mas importante para una vida feliz, vibrante, activa y repleta de energia.Christie Brinkley

En 1952, la disenadora cubano-mexicana Clara Porset organizo la primera exposicion de diseno de Mexico, "El arte en la vida diaria. Objetos de buen diseno hechos en Mexico". Aquella muestra, junto con las ideas de Porset, marco un punto de inflexion en la trayectoria del diseno en Mexico al aspirar a la unificacion de las tradiciones locales y el sueno de la industrializacion. Este libro repasa la genealogia de artesanos, promotores, empresarios y disenadores que han contribuido al desarrollo del diseno artesanal mexicano durante la mayor parte de los ultimos setenta anos, reivindicando una forma hibrida o mestiza de cultura material y amueblando la vida moderna con una forma localmente especifica de producir objetos. El libro explora el diseno grafico industrial, la indumentaria, el mobiliario, los objetos, la joyeria y la moda. Uno de sus principales objetivos es servir de referencia para la historia del diseno en Mexico.

Hay un hilo secreto que conecta las pinturas rupestres de la cueva de Altamira, los bestiarios medievales, las campañas de reclutamiento de soldados durante la Primera Guerra Mundial, los pósteres psicodelicos de los conciertos de rock, las tapas de las revistas de moda, la apropiacion de productos de consumo en obras del arte pop y la irrupcion de las nuevas tecnologias en la vida cotidiana. En cada uno de los momentos en que el ser humano tuvo necesidad de comunicar algo mediante signos, el diseño grafico estuvo persente, a veces de manera solapada, pero a medida que se consolido el capitalismo llego a convertirse en una actividad crucial de nuestra cultura.
