A Sarah Hurwitz Art Exclusive

Illegally filmed at the eye lounge earlier today. The latest Hurwitz show "Fearless."

The show focuses a large painting representing a forest of fears, and an alphabet of fears. Her fears seem to range from completely normal phobias to oddly humorous personal ones. I am a big fan of P, I, and the ever popular O; O is for Opening the door in an airplane and getting sucked out. Also, interesting are the hundred or so hand drawn bugs on the wall in random order. Like a bug scavenger hunt you can locate the midges (1293 & 1294), a species of whip spider? (1297) or common cockchafer (1187). If you can't make it to the show you can still learn her alphabet of fears from the book.

Soweto the other half of Youth Day



I had a chance to see DJ Cleo during the Nike Pitch Perfect X Fader party at the Soweto training center, in South Africa. On the roof actually, quite cold too.

Party like a Zambian
