Setting a new low in image quality (you must really decide after the first paragraph if it's worth reading on ), but wanted to share as I found this while cleaning up my desk... nothing earth-moving, but nevertheless.
Hi. I like your necklace. - It's actually a rape whistle, but the whistle part fell off.

I love that you posted those. And I love that he chose to collaborate with Jenny Holzer for that campaign. I almost included the first one but glad I didn't because it's so much more impactful seeing the set like this.
Thank you for posting them!
I'm tempted to add some of her work here ā the stuff that inspired Lang ...stay tuned!
And yes, second-to-last shot is editorial. Damn hot editorial, at that.

Helmut Lang, the artist and ex-designer, is shredding the last of his archives to create a sculpture in East Hampton. Check out why Helmut Lang is destroying the last bits of fashion he has.

Oh I don't know.. there's something rather lovely about it to me. Has nothing to do with repurposing "the remains" into art (quite frankly, there was more art in what he destroyed than in what will be created from it, if you ask me).
I just see it as the ultimate swan song to the Helmut brand that once was, especially powerful considering the mass-up-your-ass, soul-less crap which now bears his name:
"What once existed, can no longer be found. Anywhere."
You can destroy all the clothes you want. *You can't destroy a legacy.
