Pushing adidas’ iconic Equipment series to its boldest territory yet, channeling raw EQT elements into a new design loaded with tech. A Primeknit upper features woven panel details over a concealed sock-fit construction with welded translucent structural overlays, accented by PALACE’s signature TPU heel-counter, finished atop the EQT Running Support’s classic tooling with Torsion midfoot technology.

ROSE WYLIE – HORSE, BIRD, CAT

Posted on 2016-12-05

On view for the first time will be the large-scale Black Painting; Horse, Bird, Cat (2016), from which the exhibition takes its title, as well as two recent paintings and a group of works on paper that together underscore the artist’s distinctive working process and intuitive approach to image-making.

Wylie creates paintings and drawings that on first glance appear aesthetically simplistic, not seeming to align with any recognizable style or movement, but on closer inspection are revealed to be wittily observed and subtly sophisticated mediations on the nature of visual representation itself. The layers of newspaper that line her studio floor are a frequent source of material for the artist, as she encounters images by chance while working. Drawing from such wide-ranging cultural areas as film, fashion photography, literature, mythology, news images, sports, and individuals she meets in her day-to-day life, Wylie paints colorful and exuberant compositions that are uniquely recognizable. The artist has acknowledged her great admiration for Philip Guston, whose late paintings likewise make use of an idiosyncratic visual lexicon, the directness of cartoonish figures, and a flattened perspective, but simultaneously betray a deep awareness of art history and painterly conventions.

Opposite – Volcano, Pig, Cigar-Man, 2016

Exhibition runs through to January 7th, 2017

Winner of the Directing Award at the Sundance Film Festival, LIFE, ANIMATED is the inspirational story of Owen Suskind, a young man living with autism whose life is enriched by Disney animated films, and the unconditioned love from his family.

Owen Suskind is an autistic young man who could not speak for years as a child and yet slowly emerged from his isolation by immersing himself in Disney animated movies. The subject of his father Ron Suskind’s New York Times bestseller, Owen used these films as a roadmap to reconnect with his loving family and the wider world. LIFE, ANIMATED is an emotional coming-of-age story that shows the next stage of Owen’s journey as he takes his first steps towards independence.

SNOWDEN

Posted on 2016-12-05

Director Oliver Stone, who brought Platoon, Born on the Fourth of July, Wall Street and JFK to the big screen, tackles the most important and fascinating true story of the 21st century. Snowden, the politically-charged, pulse-pounding thriller starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Shailene Woodley, reveals the incredible untold personal story of Edward Snowden, the polarizing figure who exposed shocking illegal surveillance activities by the NSA and became one of the most wanted men in the world. He is considered a hero by some, and a traitor by others. No matter which you believe, the epic story of why he did it, who he left behind, and how he pulled it off makes for one of the most compelling films of the year.
