Going, going, almost gone

February 10, 2011 / By The Mesdames / 2 comments

As you know, we’ve been rabbiting on (boom, tish) about being a part of the Australian and New Zealand leg of the Diana World Tour, which has now travelled to Tokyo, Seoul, Porto, Lisbon, Madrid, Barcelona, Berlin, Paris, Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, New York City, Los Angeles, Riga, London, Sydney and opens in Melbourne Feb 24 and Auckland March 18.

If you’re not able to make it to see the Customised Clones Exhibition in person, don’t fret. You can bid on them online with the proceeds going to charity, but you’d best be quick, only three days left.

A small sample of the goodness you may wish to bid on is shown above, by artists (from L-R, top to bottom) Gemma Jones, Scrap Wall, Greedy Hen, Limedrop, Cat-Rabbit, Beci Orpin, Eveline Tarunadjaja, Mel Stringer and Angela Mitchell & Leah Dent.

*Stay tuned folks, we had an e-mail from the Lomo team today to say something went nutso with eBay last night and a bunch of the listings disappeared. They’re working hard to get it all sorted. We’ll keep you informed.

Wouldn’t it be nice?

February 8, 2011 / By The Mesdames / Make a comment

The mesdames like music, they are partial to a toe-tapping beat and a jaunty lyric. Sometimes, however, they are shocked and appalled by the unsuitability of the album art. How nice would it be to revisit some album covers and reimagine them? Just ask Andrew Kolb, who remade the The Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds album cover as part of the 33.3 Art Show. And there are 32.3 others there too.

Madame Mitchell and Madame Dent cannot believe it is February already. They have big ideas for 2011, but best get a wriggle on if the year insists on slipping away like this. Madame Dent thinks it is rather tricky when all of her ideas still look very much like this incredible installation artwork by Nami Yamamoto. Mind you, Mr Messy does too and he’s done alright for himself.

Who knew afternoon tea could be so risqué? Dutch illustrator Esther Horchner, that’s who. Go on, live a little, abandon your inhibitions and maybe swap the Liptons for lapsang?

The art of giving gifts

January 25, 2011 / By Madame Dent / Make a comment

Julian Callos is an artist living in Los Angeles. This is what he gave his friends for Christmas (just a small selection). He made each one of his tribe a spirit animal that represents them. They are completely amazing and I bet they are now cherished and adored and talked about and handled with loving care by their new proud owners. Heh, art is a great thing, isn’t it?
