PERROQUET
Sølve Sundsbø
Born out of a lifelong fascination with science photography and nature documentaries, Parroquet showcases a body of work by fashion photographer Sølve Sundsbø, comprising eight film shorts and a selection of photographs. Keen to produce imagery that didn’t fall into the traditional genres of photography, this project’s central focus is the parroquet, a type of small, slender, long-tailed parrot. This particular subject matter couldn’t be more removed from Sundsbø’s lavish editorial spreads and striking campaign imagery, although his reasons for choosing this particular species do, in a way, relate to fashion. Possessing almost sartorial qualities, it was the bird’s trademark vibrant plumage that piqued the photographer’s interest.

KNEE DEEP IN YOUR EYES
Julie Verhoeven & N/A
Created in collaboration with London-based N/A, Julie Verhoeven's 'Knee Deep in Your Eyes' is a visual treat, taking you on a spiraling magical mystery tour through her inimitable illustrative world. Painting, drawing, photography, collage, decoupage, montage, reality... all come together to dazzling psychedelic effect as LP's, EP's and record sleeves embellished with bold Verhoeven designs spin incessantly through 360-degrees. Taken from a 15-minute original showcased as a backdrop to a live performance by London post-punks Ginger Bread Men at the 9th edition of Art Rotterdam in February 2008, this mesmerising surrealist feast is a compelling mix of the raw and the rarefied, blurring the line between what is real and what is make-believe.

WONDERLAND
Helen Storey
A product of a groundbreaking exploration of chemically-fabricated, biodegradable materials by the artist and fashion designer Helen Storey and the scientist Tony Ryan, 'Wonderland' uses fashion as a 'trojan horse' to demonstrate radical scientific findings. From 29 January–29 February 2008, Storey will construct her first fashion collection in 12 years, in front of a live audience. These garments are designed to deconstruct over time in water and this amazing quality will be showcased during the residency, during which time SHOWstudio will document the full process in picture diaries and live webcasts. When the collection is completed, our task will then be to photograph the garments in a live shoot in Spring to document their design and appearance before dissolving them for a film that will showcase their miraculous scientific secret.

EYES OF THE BEHOLDER
Toyin
In collaboration with Replay, SHOWstudio has invited photographer and filmmaker Toyin to turn her signature, romantic lens on the Italian denimwear company's Autumn/Winter '08-09 collection. Though shot in Robert Adam's exquisite, 18th century London townhouse at 33 Portland Street, Toyin and stylist Stevie Westgarth gave themselves poetic license to shift the date forward to the 19th century - the wild west to be specific - where winsome girls swooned over bare-chested boys who cracked bullwhips and wore the bowler hats of frontiersmen. But this resultant film short is no Calamity Jane-style caper. The faded elegance of the Georgian backdrop, combined with the contemporary energy of both choreography and Replay's collection, creates a spellbinding visual feast. To an electrifying soundtrack, specially composed by the Doi, sit back and witness the extraordinary models' performances that are this filmmaker's hallmark.

BONED
Nick Knight/Alister Mackie
Invited by Another Man magazine to shoot men’s underwear for its A/W '07–08 issue, Nick Knight and Alister Mackie took inspiration from imagery Robert Mapplethorpe and Horst P. Horst, only translating the monochrome power of their stills into colour. Featuring new work by a range of designers, the results offer a fresh perspective on men’s underwear, its representation in fashion imagery and on masculinity itself. Boned also features a film of the shoot, an accompanying essay by Shaun Cole and clips and interviews from the live broadcast.

ICE CREAM
Nick Knight

BEASTING
Nick Knight/Simon Foxton
Invited by Arena Hommes + magazine to photograph the highlights of John Galliano’s outlandish Autumn/Winter ’07-8 collection, Nick Knight and Simon Foxton were in the studio over two days, staging one of the explosive action shoots that are the hallmark of their longstanding creative collaboration. From 11:00hrs (UK time), the cameras streamed live coverage of Galliano’s prehistoric fashions, giving those with a penchant for woolen Minotaurs, skintight briefs and Samurai swordsmen an opportunity to indulge their tastes for the primeval and the preposterous in equal measure.

WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT?
Simon Foxton, Nick Knight
Asked to contribute to the forthcoming 'Health of the Nation'-themed, August issue of i-D magazine, Nick Knight and Simon Foxton elected to create a photographic story about the 'brutalising city': how it is brutalised by us, how it brutalises us and as a result, how it encourages us to brutalise each other.
Realising that London was only one of many possible locations for such a shoot, Nick and Simon decided to open their project up to SHOWstudio viewers worldwide, throwing down their brief as a gauntlet to the many internationally-based photographers we know view the site and contribute to the FORUM.- Spreads Last updated 2 Sep 2006

CANNES 2006
Mike Figgis, Nick Knight
Viewing film festivals as ‘highly suspect at the best of times’ Mike Figgis constructed an elaborate rouse to survive Cannes 2006. Acting as a (rather famous) ‘beach portraitist’, he set up a make-shift studio in his hotel bedroom and a gallery at the back of his host nightclub and spent the week photographing and exhibiting prints of the various directors, actresses, producers and writers attending the festival. In the gallery, filmed interview and essay below, Figgis shared with SHOWstudio his resultant images, his thoughts on the festival and the history of how photography has influenced his image career.

The printed page has determined the way fashion looks since women's magazines were first introduced. For over three centuries garments have appeared as if frozen still. Nick Knight's key motivation for founding SHOWstudio was to investigate the representation of clothing through sound and motion; perhaps the last great challenge in fashion image making.'Moving Fashion' aimed to exploit this exciting new opportunity through an in-depth study of fashion film.

Leigh Bowery
Guiser presented a rare selection of original and previously unpublished material that looked at, listened to and wrote about the legendary figure Leigh Bowery. The extraordinary personage of Leigh Bowery has had an enormous influence on visual culture - across fashion, art, music and performance - and SHOWstudio wanted to celebrate this legacy. Guiser brought together previously unseen film footage of Bowery being photographed by Nick Knight, with unreleased sound material from 'Minty' demo tapes as a soundtrack. Also featured was an essay by one of Leigh's contemporaries, Donald Urquhart -whose own artistic output and creativity mirrors the breadth of Bowery's output, as well as intertwining creatively with it. Urquhart's text gave personal accounts of some of the posthumous events that have commemorated Leigh Bowery.

FREEDOM OF LOVE
Brad Pitt
During a recent shoot for Vanity Fair, Nick Knight created a number of
on-set scenarios for intriguing visual and aural actions for subject Brad
Pitt to perform, so as to engage the actor in 'pique' performance. 'Freedom
of Love' is a short film which captured Pitt in action during the shoot,
energetically painting onto a huge blow up of his own face, and adding
caption, and contemplatively reading surrealist poetry. Pitt reads from
André Breton's poem 'Freedom of Love', a one stanza, sixty-line homage to his wife. The poem cites a beautiful litany of comparisons for her physical attributes, deftly playing with language that eludes any commonplace romantic imaging, instead presenting uncanny metaphors. Breton was the provocative, passionate leader of the avant-garde literary and artistic movement Surrealism, who believed in 'revolution of the mind', and in the 'marvellous' - dazzling combinations of words or visual images,
spontaneously created by automatic processes of the mind.- Movie Last updated 10 Jun 2004

POWER OF WITCHES
Comme des Gar�ons
Legendary designer Rei Kawakubo opened up her highly intellectual creative process for consideration in this unprecedented collaboration with SHOWstudio. Following the production of a photographic shoot from its inception to its delivery to Another Magazine for its September issue, this project demonstrated how the many creatives involved in making fashion imagery responded to the overarching conceptual direction of the celebrated Comme des Garçons visionary.
For the initial, three-day phase of the project, photographer Nick Knight and stylist Alister Mackie interpreted the emotional theatre of the Autumn/Winter '04 Commes des Garçons collection with its attenuated jacket sleeves. From there, follow the post-production of the resultant photographs in a dialogue between Knight and his imaging collaborator Allan Finamore as they extended the visual parameters of the pictures taken on set via digital manipulation. Finally, Kawakubo added the 'hand of the artist', imbuing the final images with her individual response to them.
A live discussion forum ran throughout the project, giving SHOWstudio viewers the opportunity to ask questions of the creatives active during each stage.
