Audiovisual project gFlowerbombh : VJK Eddy, Flowerbomb, Viktor Rolf
A cooperation between Eddy De Clercq & Kaoru Yamamoto (VJK)

The track gFlowerbombh is part of Eddy de Clercqfs new album Music for Catwalks. The music on the CD 'music for catwalks' is an eclectic mix of various styles; jazzy pop, latin soul jazz, bossa nova, balkan grooves, French chanson, Cuban grooves and atmosferic collages. On eMusic for Catwalksf one finds a selection of compositions as used during the actual shows by Viktor & Rolf and reworked by Eddy De Clercq into new arrangements for listening pleasure outside the environment of the actual fashion show. Other compositions on this album were made for possible shows or simply were inspired by the wonderful world of fashion.

The first composition of gFlowerbombh was created for the introduction and commercial of the fragrance gFlowerbombh of Viktor & Rolf. Eddy reworked it for his album and asked Kaoru (VJK) to make visuals for the clip. This clip will be soon available as a paid downloadable through I-tunes. Click here for footage of the exclusive interview with both artists and a compilation of the clip.

'The House of Viktor & Rolf' is the name given to the stunning new exhibition showcasing the work of Dutch fashion designers Viktor & Rolf which opened on 18 June. This is the first time in the United Kingdom that an exhibition has been devoted to this highly influential duo. Over the past 15 years Viktor & Rolf have taken the fashion world by storm with their particular blend of cool irony and surreal beauty. The House of Viktor & Rolf presents each of the designerfs signature pieces from 1992 to now, shown in a specially commissioned and characteristically theatrical installation that dominates the entire Gallery. Highlights include pieces from Atomic Bomb, 1998- 99, featuring dramatic mushroom cloud-like cushioned necklines and Russian Doll, 1999 - 2000, in which a single model was painstakingly dressed by Viktor & Rolf until she was gasping under 70 kilogrammes of exquisite haute couture. For the collection Bells, 2000 - 2001, models emerged from a smoke-filled space in clothes embroidered with hundreds of brass bells, so they were heard before they could be seen.
