Est-ce que quelqu'un peut me parler de la nouvelle interface de flickr prévu pour le 8 décembre. L'avez-vous vu? Qu'en pensez-vous? Pourquoi moi, je n'ai pas accès à un aperçu?

And here is the pavilion ...
Does anyone can tell me about the new interface flickr scheduled for December 8. Have you seen it? What do you think about it? Why me, I do not have access to a preview?

Taken in the 'China: Through the Looking Glass' exhibition (May-September 2015).
This exhibition explores the impact of Chinese aesthetics on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination for centuries. In this collaboration between The Costume Institute and the Department of Asian Art, high fashion is juxtaposed with Chinese costumes, paintings, porcelains, and other art, including films, to reveal enchanting reflections of Chinese imagery.
From the earliest period of European contact with China in the sixteenth century, the West has been enchanted with enigmatic objects and imagery from the East, providing inspiration for fashion designers from Paul Poiret to Yves Saint Laurent, whose fashions are infused at every turn with romance, nostalgia, and make-believe. Through the looking glass of fashion, designers conjoin disparate stylistic references into a pastiche of Chinese aesthetic and cultural traditions.
The exhibition features more than 140 examples of haute couture and avant-garde ready-to-wear alongside Chinese art. Filmic representations of China are incorporated throughout to reveal how our visions of China are framed by narratives that draw upon popular culture, and also to recognize the importance of cinema as a medium through which to understand the richness of Chinese history.

My wife had to do some cosmetics shopping at Nordstrom at Scottsdale Fashion Square. They plopped me down on a stool by the Yves Saint Laurent counter. I was fascinated by the lipstick. I have no idea what these cost. I have no clue how many colors there are.

Jaques Majorelle born in France in 1886 moved to Marrakech in 1919 and continued his career as a painter. He aquired land in 1924 and began the landscape which is today known as the Majorelle Garden. In 1947 he opened the garden to the public, a tradition that continues to this day. Following a car accident in 1962 he returned to France and died shortly afterwards.
The Marjorelle Garden is one of the 20th century's most mysterious gardens. It is a place of rare individual expression and mystical force. The garden is an overpowering abundance of vegetal shapes and forms representing five continents and reflects Jaques Majorelle's significance as one of the most important plant collectors of his time.
Jaques Majorelle's garden is perhaps his greates oeuvre, a true work of art that continues to capture, mesmerize and enrapture the visiting public. Since aquiring and restoring the property, Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Berge have given the Majorelle Garden to their foundation in Paris to ensure its continuing existence.

Le Studio d'Yves Saint Laurent
Le studio était l'espace de travail du couturier français Yves Saint Laurent. C'est là qu'il créait ses modèles et en contrôlait la réalisation.
Les deux créations de droite font partie de l'exposition "Les Fleurs".

...Présentées dans l’exposition, une trentaine de silhouettes textiles et des dessins mettent en lumière cette symbiose entre l’œuvre d’Yves Saint Laurent, la nature et la littérature.... (Extrait du site de l'exposition)

Yves Saint Laurent was a brilliant designer.
I don't have a single high fashion item in my closet, but I very much appreciate the art that goes into fashion designing. Understanding fabric and cut and how that works within the line of the human body is beyond my capabilities. I tend to highly admire those minds that I just can not begin to jump into.
I chose Laurent to honor for my We're Here - Art Parody shot. Plus, he and I had the same hair and glasses. He just had a better jawline.
