MOSS + BOWIE = VOGUE

Brit icon Kate Moss does Brit icon David Bowie on the brand new January cover of French Vogue, shot by Mert & Marcus. Not the first time this has been done (see below), but we like it all the same.

WONDELREY

Let's have a look at some nice pictures of Lana Del Rey from this month's brand new Wonderland magazine (out now), as shot by the marvellous Aj Numan. Lovely.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAZED

PRINT V DIGITAL

If you were in any doubt as to the future generation's preference when it comes to print vs digital, have a look at the video below for some interesting insight... We think it's a fairly strong argument for the publishing world to plunge head first into digital content.

AI WEIWEI

Chinese artist Ai Weiwei has just been named the most powerful person in the art world, according to a poll conducted by ArtReview magazine.

The mag said Weiwei, who was released in June after being detained for more than 80 days by Chinese authorities, was chosen by the panel because of his political activism, as well as his art work.

Damien Hirst is the only other artist to have previously topped the list, both in 2005 and 2008. Click here for more info on the power list. Here he is (below) talking about his Sunflower Seeds piece for Tate Modern's Turbine Hall.

ABERRANT NECROPOLIS

We have long been fans of analogue fashion photographer Ellen Rogers. Her work captures a timeless dream world, filled with equal measures of darkness and seduction. 

Rogers shoots for the likes of Dazed, i-D and Tank on a regular basis and has developed an impressive body of work, which is now assembled into a beautiful 80-page hardback book. Containing 72 photographs, Aberrant Necropolis is out now for £45, and you can buy it here.

V

A three-headed Stefani Germanotta graces the next issue of V magazine (one of our faves). The shot was taken by uber fashion photographer duo Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin, and features an interview by Elton Hercules John. (not sure why we're going for full names today..)
