Make It Hard by Helmut Lang



Helmut Lang
retired from fashion industry in 2005, now his talented, complex, creative mind of Lang is now making art, all abstract and conceptual which was recently showcased at The Fireplace Project in East Hamptons.



"Make it Hard" is the title of the exhibition, it was inspired by Lang's idea to destroying archive himself and use it as raw material for his art. Mixing his own history, original claim to fame and a current back mirror view of his past as a fashion designer… Now an artist.


Of course, 'Make it Hard' also literally the transition from soft to solid, so there is a sexual reference implied. Something very Lang.

Later,
