    The ending of this video from 28:58 is wild... Abloh talking taking us down memory lane, nice sound at the background, Ye's infamous note, Virgil was here in the sky, and you saying "And with that, this is over" 🔥🔥🔥 Beautiful

    Your video essay was concise, and showed that you had gained more than surface deep level of understanding the subject, how it has affected us and how it will possibly continue to have an influence over us as we wait for that next Warhol, Basquiat and Virgil Abloh to hold up a mirror and show us us the way we want to be seen, vs the way might see ourselves - art is the ultimate form of reinventing one’s true self. And I subscribed - great job!

    I always had this theory where being different in anything you do will separate one’s art from others. The point of cross pollinating genres resonates with me because if I specialize in one craft and learn everything under the sun about it. The likelihood of being burnt out and creatively exhausted will be much easier and faster.

      Japanese street fashion culture, what's their approach to street fashion, how's it different from say, the West... When i got interested in street fashion, little did i know the name Japan would pop up again and again, since they're mostly known for Tech, Anime and stuff... I was intrigued. Now i want to visit the place to watch and learn, if possible, study.

    Virgil’s thought process was very interesting and thoughtful. But I think he was a net negative to art/fashion community as a whole. His 3% philosophy gives anyone a very lazy framework to plagiarize someone else’s hard work. It promotes thoughtless over production

    • @ANDR14.
      @ANDR14. Год назад +1

      It's interesting how posthumous idealization is at play with Virgil Abloh though. When he was alive, his 3% philosophy was pretty controversial, criticized for giving people an easy way to copy other designers. But since he sadly passed away, it seems like that criticism has faded away for the most part. While it's natural for views to change, people should remember the original debates and not let them get lost just because Virgil's no longer with us. RIP Virgil.

    • @OwnD1
      @OwnD1 Год назад +1

      @@ANDR14. his tragic passing reminded us how much he had achieved in such a short period of time. He wasn’t only involved in fashion, but DJing at festivals and some clubs, and having art exhibitions on displays as well (plus something else, it’s Virgil lol).
      I think The Casual put it the best when he said Virgil had achieved about four lifetime’s worth of work in his short life. It’s truly inspiring how much he has achieved. But in regards to his 3% philosophy, I think it’s a good starting point for beginners to attain some confidence and deconstruction of art. But they should move on from it and find their own voice/expression.

He has stolen a lot of ideas and he only gets praised by Kanye stans . He's not truly respected by his peers of artisans and designers. Just being real.
