this is all true. idk i think of it sort of like designers -even though it's a stretch. it's understood that they don't actually make every single item but because it's their "vision" that's the name that gets put on it
Went to The Norton in Palm Beach yesterday to see an old Hollywood portraits exhibition..and was totally blown away by the unknown (to me) exhibition of Nick Cave that they were also having there. I have never seen art like his, I usually hate performance artists and find them pretentious, and have rarely been as impressed as I was by his work. Absolutely amazingly beautiful and creative, and a seemingly damn nice man to boot.
I searched nick cave because I wanted to watch nick cave music video's but I found this and oh my god this artist is absolutely amazing I love the use of costume and motion thankyou for the new artist ^^
The MEET ME AT THE CENTER OF THE EARTH exhibit at the Fowler Museum on the UCLA campus is a trip! You enter another world, it puts a smile on everyone's face, and a huge Wow in the air. A group of little girls was watching the videos at the entrance to the show and they were laughing and dancing, loving the energy that emanated from the creations. Really have to see this in person!
@tshoyoye - yeah cave obviously riffs on established ethno costumes from around the world (these are just the tip of the iceberg) ... but he brings his own "magic brains" into the equation. truly remarkable.
followed a tweet here thinking it was the singer Nick Cave, but that's cool tho...I guess people with that name have a numerological bent towards art maybe...
I just saw this work today at the Yerbuena art center. It made me uneasy and i can't figure out why. It was so interesting. The textures, the concepts, the materials. I really loved to see such an original idea. I have to write a paper on Nick Cave. I'm so excited to just get into his head. It is magical.
Nick Cave - you're work is magical! Your bushman and shaman suits are stunning. You're a manipulator of textiles extraordinaire. Love the materials & how you work with them. Terrific installations: keys,coffins, hearts, your primitive,feral stuff, the wildly colored fantastical stuff/Enchanted by your work for decade+. You are an inspiration to us who work in textiles and explore boundaries of fashion, fetishistic, ritualistic garments. and their anthropological antecedents. Ella (X-SAIC)

I like how this is in USA artists because Nick Cave doesn't make these. His "assistants" do and they are from all over the place

@americanzero582 so? these are all things that are either worn or travel great distances. they need to be well-made.

@housecloud then he should make them well, or give his assistants the credit. Ive met with him, hes a prude.

Nick Cave does not make these. he doesnt make any of his work. His "Assistants" make everything.
