rip, far too early, alexander mcqueen…

for all sorts of reasons – maintaining sanity being a key one – most of us manage to negotiate art and life as fairly disinct spheres. but mcqueen really blurred the boundaries, and in doing so revealed the alluring, often darkly hued power of the truly aesthetic life. his creations baffled, dazzled, thrilled and terrified…and  they stood alone, a singular vision, in an industry that exists mainly by feeding on its carcass. thank you for the intervention.
