A embrace from which one would never want to part.

Bare feet strike the red earth. They lift it up, forming a brown cloud that drifts with the winds. Gradually, the cloud lightens, until it suddenly evaporates upon contact with hard, cold asphalt.

Towédé has left a magical land where spirits float between the trees, for a new land that disregards myths and the paranormal. A land that proudly proclaims its modernity and rationality. But Towédé is a force that nothing can sterilize. It is a fierce softness, a wild tenderness.

Towédé is the meeting of two worlds. They coexist, encroach upon each other, intertwine, interweave, and interpret one another. Yet, balance is achieved without one disappearing in favor of the other, without one fully conceding to the other.

A green bench by the Seine.

With spring, freedom has taken over Paris. It’s the time for encounters and discoveries. The time for new beginnings. The time to take the risk of trying and starting over. To be swept away by the promise of something, even if one doesn’t really know what it is. In theory, they should never have crossed paths. Anonymous in the crowd, strangers. Each convinced of a future that seemed fairly set. But when the trees bloom again and the clouds disperse, everything becomes possible. Certainties crumble, making way for maybes. Prolégomènes sets the scene on a blank page, leaving the field open for what will happen next. It’s the end of one cycle and the beginning of a new one. It’s a new love, a new start. Perhaps the chance of a lifetime. It’s the spark that ignites a new story.

A summer in the Basque Country.

July-August, barefoot in the sand, the scent of wax and sunscreen, fingertips wrinkled from the salty water. Olatua carries the naïveté of adolescence, marked by the impatience for the next summer. It’s the feeling of those trapped in this wonderful place where others come on vacation but never stay. Olatua is a concentrate of suspended memories. The memories of a brief story, with no future but unforgettable. Those of a wave of overwhelming euphoria that recedes in September, as if nothing had ever existed. It sticks to the skin, its trail lingers. Yet, one must turn the page. Though innocence fades with the passing summers, Olatua allows one not to forget, to be reminded by the wave.

Notes: Coconut/Wax, Iodine, White Flowers, Ylang, Black Pepper, White Musks, Vetiver.

Ryan McGinness: #metadata features new paintings by Ryan McGinness. McGinness’ work, taking inspiration from skate and surf culture and graphic design, has been characterized as “equal parts Pop, Baroque, commercial and street.” But in his recent paintings McGinness stays local, taking his inspiration from his own studio space and tools. The paintings in the Studio Views and Screen Combines series depict various scenes and detritus from the studio, including tools, sketches, paint containers and finished paintings. Disrupting the normal hierarchy of means and ends, works in progress and finished products, McGinness presents us with the very tools and spaces used to make the paintings themselves. Ryan McGinness: #metadata features an interview with the artist, a selection of early works and installation views of McGinness’ work on view at the Kohn Gallery in Los Angeles and the Cranbrook Art Museum.

A multistoried apartment building. Its plaster is grayish beige and exudes a kind of petit-bourgeois tristesse; it has the requisite carpeted balcony railings, the lone flower box, even the deckchair is there. A familiar view. It is only on second glance that we see that something is wrong. All of the balcony doors lead to nowhere, and in turn, the balconies themselves cannot be accessed.

German photographer Frank Kunert (*1963 in Frankfurt/Main) has not uncovered any sort of architectural scandal. With Balcony is one of the works that sensitively and enigmatically turn familiar narrative contexts upside down and question reality itself. Far from being simply photographic satire, Kunert’s miniatures give three-dimensional form to puns on thoughts and words, making them tangible in the truest sense of the word. Kunert spends weeks constructing his model sets down to the smallest detail and then photographs them in his studio—in the process, creating the antithesis of worn and hackneyed concepts and ideas.

BESIDE is one of the world’s most forward-thinking media brands on a mission to bridge the gap between humans and nature. Cofounded by creatives Jean-Daniel Petit and Eliane Cadieux, BESIDE has grown–in only a few years–from a printed magazine into a media brand encompassing an online platform, workshops, a festival as well as a cabins project at the crossroads of nature and culture.

BESIDE draw on their unique perspective to bring more than 36 of the world’s most iconic craftspeople into the spotlight. We learn how these traditions are being revived, sustained, and adapted by a new generation that wants to lead a more meaningful and sustainable life.

Divided into three sections–people, rituals, and objects–THE NEW TRADITIONAL focuses on the people reviving the traditions that bring us closer to nature and to one another. We meet Whang-od Oggay, the most authentic tattoo artist in the world, the Japanese lacquerware maker Takeo Kudo, and globe maker Peter Bellerby. The profiles also feature the designer of the PET lamp, Alvaro Catalán de Ocón, and Jim Denevan who brought the table to the farm. As Catherine Métayer, BESIDE's Editor-in-Chief, writes in her introduction, “From Kenya to Korea, from Iceland to Canada, realities and traditions are strikingly different. But practitioners share a common yearning, a common ground. They are part of a movement for a 'new traditional'.”
