Flowtoys founders Sean and Prisna will be in Singapore for a few days in March and we’d love to share with you our latest product line and our passion for movement!

We will have our full line of illuminated performance props including the flow-wand, flowstaff, 4 styles of poi, nunchaku and rope-dart, as well as samples of our new soon-to-be-released Flowtoys Modular System of custom engineered caps and connectors and the all-new “colecord” designated by Playpoi as the best poi cord on earth. We’ll also be projecting a selection of recently produced instructional DVDs from some of the most innovative artists in our field.

Come see the action, BE the action, find your flow, meet and mingle with fellow movers, show off your skills, and learn new ones. We have been performing and building props for over 10 years and will be offering our skills and experience, and welcoming any questions and requests.

This is an open invitation. Please pass it on to anyone who you think might be interested.

“Love is Indie air”, will make its inaugural debut on the 15th December 2007, at Blu Jazz (11 haji Lane); a live music joint synonymous with great jazz acts! The event, a brainchild of La Famiglia - Italian for “The Family”, is currently 100% self-funded and a collective effort amongst a closely-knit group of friends. Calculated risks aside, La Famiglia sincerely believes this offers a great avenue for the local music community to bond, socialize and learn from each other.

Amongst confirmed bands are established acts like West Grand Boulevard, Tiramisu, Caracals and The Pinholes. Aside from that, La Famiglia is also working on confirmation with bands like The Fire Fight and Flybar. A local indie Dj will also be playing in-between sets on the day.

‘A is for Andy’ - 20 years after Warhol: An Andy Warhol Exhibition

This year marks the 20 th anniversary of the death of Andy Warhol and in commemoration, an exhibition featuring 119 pieces of the artist’s most unique and iconic works. The entire collection of ‘A is for Andy’ - 20 years after Warhol: An Andy Warhol Exhibition is estimated to be valued in excess of USD 10 million and is the first-ever exhibition of such an impressive magnitude in Singapore. It will include some of Warhol’s most popular screen-prints like Marilyn Monroe, Superman, Mickey Mouse, Campbell Soup and Mao. ‘A is for Andy’ will be held at 72-13 Mohamed Sultan Road (TheatreWorks) from 13 to 18 November 2007, and will be opened to the public on Saturday and Sunday, 17 and 18 November 2007.

Radical and most definitely progressive, Andy Warhol was a central figure in the pop art movement which began in the late 1950s and drew inspiration from the products of popular culture, such as advertising, packaging, comic books, the cinema and television.. Having demonstrated sheer talent in drawing and painting at a young age, Andy Warhol first worked as an illustrator for various high-fashion magazines, including Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar. He proceeded to hold his premiere solo gallery exhibition at the mere age of 24, exhibiting Fifteen Drawings Based on the Writings of Truman Capote.

In less than a decade, Andy Warhol’s status as a media icon had dramatically intensified with his show-stopping style mirroring the euphoric 60s - a world which saw the rise in a mass consumerism culture as consumer goods became more affordable. Warhol captured the universal craving for glamour and glitz in his art and became known internationally as a painter, an avant-garde filmmaker, a record producer, an author and even a public figure. The artist and his art was celebrated for his presence in diverse social circles: from that of bohemian street people to distinguished intellectuals; from Hollywood celebrities to wealthy aristocrats.

Highlights of the exhibition include the eight complete portfolios, such as the $ sign, Mao, Beethoven, Grapes, Camouflage, Shadows 1, Shadows 2, Electric Chairs and the unique set of commissioned works created for the promotional campaigns of the Perrier water and of the Muratti Cigarettes by Philip Morris. This set of commissioned promotional campaigns is near-inimitable as it is representative of Andy Warhol’s desire in producing works that were aesthetically and conceptually complex.

The impact of Andy Warhol is all around us today and his influence is immeasurable. He revolutionised the concept of art by taking it off its pedestal and made it more accessible to people. An opinion leader, a trend-setter and an artist manager who turned art into a mass phenomenon, Warhol believed that art should be made more easily accessible to the person on the street and ‘A is for Andy’ hopes to make his vision a reality.

Limited Edt is Launching the Claw Vandal Hi series at their shop in Heeren on Nov 3 2007.

The series designed by famous street artist Claw Money is Nike’s second collavoration with Claw Money after the Limited Edition Release of Claw Blazer earlier this summer.

The Nike Claw Vandal Hi retains the shine of the first nylon Vandals, but the Nike design team deconstructed the shoe by removing foam from the upper, allowing it to slouch and crinkle. Claw added peacock feathers to the body in reflective ink to achieve a more “couture” look. Old school fat laces keep things from getting too chi-chi.

Nike Vandal
Originally a 1985 hoop shoe, the Nike Vandal was one of the first sneakers to have a full nylon upper. Based on the original Air Force 1, the shiny quilted hi-tops with the Velcro strap became a favorite of breakdancers, who rocked them seamlessly with parachute pants. The shoes famously made an appearance in The Terminator, and it wasn’t long before skaters were also seen abusing Vandals on ramps and sidewalks alike.

Claw Money

Born in Queens, New York, Claw Money started writing graffiti in NYC in the early 1990s and has since sprayed her signature three-nailed claw symbol — based on the letter “W” — in cities around the world. The reigning princess of a male-dominated world (she counts membership in graf crews PMS, TC5 and FC) is also a well-established fashion editor and designer of her self-titled clothing line that is sold in a selection of the world’s best boutiques. Claw is the fashion editor at Swindle magazine and author of her own book Bombshell: the Life and Crimes of Claw Money, which she released this year with powerHouse Books.
