Events: Some Call It Noise‏


Ali Cha'aban will be hosting his next exhibition called “Some Call It Noise”. This is the third installment of his work, the name of the event illustrates that the notion of art can transcend beyond the visual senses and appeal to even more than one. The event will take place on January 13-15 on the land across the Souq Shark on the gulf road; it’s a street art theme so the place serves a righteous atmosphere. Take a sneak peak at what will be on display...

He is a famous anonymous french street artist that goes by the name zevs. He's liquidized a lot of logos...

The chanel one is extra popular because he got caught doing it and was arrested. Happened in Hong Kong, this year I think.

so technically this zev guy is a copier too since he used the already existing chanel logo
Now this ali guy may have used that chanel piece but then he made it his own, thats art you build upon whats offered to you or what u find and try to portray something different

ma3indkom salfa, ith all due respect to your opions bas, that liquadating thing, is a form of artwork a style or techinque, so u don't copyright something like that and even if he did kudos to him for taking advadtage. but seriously one logo and you all call fake, so if i were to noone can paint abstract art besides its founder, just apreciate and move on.

um kalthum pop art? seen it all over lebanon (on clutches even)
http://www.diadiwan.com/global-souk/product/clutch-me-um-kalthoum-trio
Also, i believe theres a shop in karizma selling pop art and have something like that..
I like the audrey hepurn ( kuwaity habba one) but its really ironic since your graphic is a habba and that has all been done before. Your not creative, you just know how to use photoshop. Be original.

Thought I should shed some light that Mark is actually a graphic designer that studied the field and excelled in it, in addition to being a blogger.
My personal take on Ali's work is that it's uninspired, recycled and some of it is quite honestly very poorly made.
It's extremely overpriced for the work that's been put into it as well. 350-500KD for a graphic print on canvas? LOL.

Altuzarra or Aquazzura?

That is the question. It took me a whole season to finally tell these two brands apart, and this season, there's no mistake, each brand is now engraved in my fashion database like a personalized Tiffany's pen. And this Resort 2015 season, I'm head over heels with their flats, on display now at AlOthman Boutique . Altuzarra's version comes in a tonal-gray water snake and are decorated with beige shells, red beads and silver sequins. Aquazzura's lace-up sandals come in a beautiful shade of apple green, and will work with white or bright colored casual summer outfit.  After much thought and sole-searching, I have decided to go for the  Altuzarra   sandals. They're safely stored in my closet, waiting for the dust and the cold to go away.  Which pair would you go for?

To New Beginnings...

"What did this Corona crisis teach you?" my friend asked. My first thought was thing crisis has opened my eyes on the simple pleasures of life. My priorities have changed. And I feel every day is a new beginning. First of all, it made me realize how much I miss blogging. How simple and mentally satisfying it was to jolt down my thoughts on a field that I was very passionate about. I have to admit that I'm not as passionate now. Don't get me wrong, I still like fashion, but it's now on the bottom of my priorities list. I would like to blog about other things too that I feel much related to. I recently discovered that I do enjoy cooking. For the longest time, cooking to me was a nightmare.  This corona crisis has taught us that we can look forward to a new day with new possibilities to contribute or to help another, or to simply approach things differently, and most importantly to make the most of each day we have and share that goodness with others.
