Robb Young interviews DP for UOVO

Dear Shaded Viewers,

Patience has never been one of my virtues so I could no longer wait for the post to deliver the new edition of Uovo, the independent voice for contemporary art.

I did not feel like ripping the book apart to scan it so excuse the pages that are not quite net.

This morning I went to Colette to pick up a copy. It’s funny the last time that I saw the team from Uovo it was at their Paris launch party for the previous issue which happened to be the same day as my birthday.   Mark Eley and his team from Eley Kishimoto shared my birthday with me . I got the hours wrong so Mark’s team and I were the only ones in the club long before the magazine team arrived.  We all had fun in a table set on a stage.

Have you ever heard the saying that on your birthday you are supposed to give presents to your friends? Today is the day before Robb Young’s birthday and I consider this interview by one of my dearest friends to be an ideal gift. Thank you Robb and thank you Uovo.

Issue ll is full of great reading like Matthieu Lurette by Jerome Sans, Miranda July by Valentina Fanelli, Liquid Architecture, Daria Martin by Silvia Sgualdini…..and all of this for only l0 euros plus you have a Uovo Pink music cd.

Later, Diane

P.S. Sorry Wiglius de Bie, they forgot to put the photo credit for your beautiful image.  The opening shot of Robb and  I was on our first trip to Iceland and the 2nd one of the two of us was last October in New Zealand. The little insert is from the Deux Hommes show in Athens and the man with me under Mario Salvucci’s lamp is You Wear it Well co-curator, Dino Dinco standing in for me at Anina’s blogging conference in Paris last fall. At the top of page 290 is Oriol Caba, Transportsciberians and the art director of the upcoming exhibit at BB Barcelona and Berlin.
