Dear Shaded Viewers,

Imagine being able to put ten years of your working life in your hometown museum, mixing your favourite photographers, clothes and artworks under one roof. Well, this is precisely what happened to Hannelore Knuts and she definitely rose to the occasion. I was almost drooling over her countless pages of editorial, which brought to mind years of compulsive magazine reading, her glass cabinet full of her own shoes -did she get to nick loads like Karen Elson?- and the fantastic art on display, from the likes of Jeff Koons, Elizabeth Peyton and many, many others. I guess I'll just shut up now and show you some pics. Hurry while it lasts!
