Penned by Tony Harris

If his mouth worked in the same way as his pen, Mr. Harris would undoubtedly be a helluva gifted artist with tons of devoted fans swearing by his brilliant drawings. As it is, he is a helluva gifted artist with an outspoken controversial character wreaking havoc among fans and embarrassing fellow artists; which is just as well because, yeah, devil is in the details. Today, let us focus on the pen which – as we know – is mightier than the sword. Here are some incredible examples of Mr. Harris’ original artwork that were on view at The Society of Illustrators through March 2017.

9. Rei Kawakubo || Object / Subject – Hybrid Bodies / Radical Forms

A radical rethinking of the human form. Accompanied by excerpts from Merce Cunningham’s Scenario dance performance of 1997, with costumes from the Body Meets Dress / Dress Meets Body line, in all their ”lumpy and bumpy” glory.

Hybrid Bodies conclude our tour into the avant-garde universe of Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between @ The Met Fifth Avenue.

But we’ll stay in UES a little longer.
