Thomas LORENZ c/o LES ARTISTS BY JOSEF STOCKINGER took care of makeup of model Kim Schell for the VOGUE CS cover spread by photographer Abdull Artuev. The editorial is inspired by TOYEN, a Surrealist painter and doyen of Poetism. Her work was pioneering and has made her the most significant Czech artist of the 20th century.
VOGUE CS : “What exactly does the ‘paradise on Earth’ look like that is sung about in the Czech national anthem? It is an enigma. The third title story of the Vogue CS #DecemberIssue, with photographs by Abudll Artueva, grants a glimpse at Toyen – had she lived in the year 2022: a dreamer, a rebel, an unconventional painter, a member of the European Surrealist movement, and one of the most prominent personalities of Czech art. Her personality, kept hidden behind a pseudonym, remains a mystery to this day. Mystery of life = beauty of life? #NurinVogue”
