THEFASHIONRAMONE a.k.a TFR

TFR is over. But check out TFR's owner new project for this year
Willa 2010 www.willapolis.blogspot.com

WILLA is the new thematic party run by Gallermic, the creator of TFR and Narziß, two regular events that grew into an unparalleled mediatic tour de force inside of the world of fashion and art, due to an exuberant visual and intellectual attack against mainstream culture in the Japanese society and in the globalized world. Taking into account this background, Willa is the ultimate sophisticated scenario to present Gallermic’s authentic reflections about life, the world, the human being, the good and the evil, the culture, the art scene, and most of all an excuse to show Galle’s exuberant ability to love. The objective of the party is to generate love and communication through a universal symbolism that reaches everybody’s heart. As Galle declares: “Willa is a party for the good flowers”.

日本語\\\\WILLA は、ファッションとアートの世界に偉大な功績を残した二つのパーティー、TFRとNarzißの創設者、Gallermicによる新しいパーティーである。日本社会とグローバライズ化された世界の主流のカルチャーに対する、圧倒的な視覚体験と知性による反撃を意図して開催されて来た。こうした背景を鑑み、WILLAは、Gallermicにとっての日常、世界、人類、善と悪、カルチャー、アートシーン、そしてとりわけGalleの愛についての表象を、究極に洗練された物語として送り届ける。このパーティーの目的は、すべての人々の心に届く普遍的な象徴を通して、愛とコミュニケーションを慈しみ、育むことにある。Galleの言葉を借りれば、「WILLAは善き花々へのパーティーである」。

Ciao For Now. And Deep Throat To You All!

12/12 Next Narziß is The Last Narziß 12/12
↓↓↓Ciao For Now. And Deep Throat To You All!↓↓↓
~> Dec 12 (fri) 10P Narziß Celebrating *Ciao For Now. And Deep Throat to You All!* at Trump Room, Shibuya.

Next Narziß is the last Narziß, our last party: an erotic fantastic farewell. We are saying bye-bye after 21 parties: it's like the magical 7 x 3, the number of the perfection by excellence and of the individuality according to the numerology. For us is inhuman and perfect: like a triangle. For how extraordinary have We been all this time, after all... It’s arousing: Ciao for now. And deep throat to you all!

P.s. We don't want to be uncouth (but we want to be called uncouth), BUT this is the last party, the last photos, and the last chance to represent your groovy self... and there is NO turning back!

↓↓↓TFR in DAZED&CONFUSED JAPAN↓↓↓ インタービュー日本語
Interview in Enlgish:
DAZED: Could you tell me about the party that you are organizing right now? (The name of the party / When did you start having it? / How often are you having it? Etc… Give me the details!)
TFR: The name of the party is NarziB. Basically, NarziB is held every other week at Tokyo's most stylish spaces. We started the party from March 8th 2008.

DAZED: After establishing the party "TFR", you started having another party called "NarziB", what are the conceptual differences between those two? Also, what are the unite concepts?
TFR: TFR is a web magazine critiquing fashion, art and club culture in Tokyo. What differentiates TFR from other media is that we clarify our position and criteria on the issues we cover. The party we organized under the name of TFR was supposed to be the manifestation of our opinion. Therefore, we attempted to represent it through our fashion, the title of each party, flyer and everything. Basically, the concept of TFR parties were rather political and aggressive (ex. anti-globalization). We believe that TFR is something like a visual guerrilla trying to attack the mainstream culture. On the other hand, NarziB is a side project of TFR. Compared with TFR, NarziB doesn't necessarily intend to represent an opinion. It is merely for fun and networking. To us, there seemed like in Tokyo the so-called "community" is virtually non-existent. We want NarziB to be a cultural community for beautiful and individual people. We don't play loud music in NarziB. We want our guests to talk and know each other. NarziB is not fashion-oriented. A wide variety of people with different background are welcomed. As a matter of fact, our guests range from cultural figures like a film actor and an art curator to bohemian homeless. At the same time, NarziB is devoted to beauty. We have dress code for each party and the poor-dressed will not be admitted.

DAZED: Who writes the manifest for the parties?
TFR: Gallermic Mabuse

DAZED: How do you select DJs? Do you have a guideline for it?
TFR: We think there is a ridiculous overvaluation of the DJ nowadays. Specially in Tokyo, the Dj culture has reach the limit of idolatry, to become a Dj is the last burst of the ambition of the club kids. But why? It is like for Japanese there wouldnt be other way to be a star. And we consider that Dj ambition a misery of personality, lack of talent, and the worst tragedy of the parties along with Rave. Therefore, We are not music oriented. We want our visitors to get excited by interaction with beautiful people, to create community, icons and gossips. We rather select our guest Dj's by their cultural background and their beauty, and we called them the oldfashioned way: "selectors". Sometimes we dont even know who is gonna dj next party, we just improvised. Nevertheless, our music selection is rich. A wide range of classical, jazz, gypsy, global grooves, house, auld lang syne and cinephiliac music.

DAZED:What was the start of taking party snaps?
TFR: Just recording our memories.

DAZED: What/which kind of moment would you like to capture when you take photos?
TFR: Whenever as long as the subject is beautiful.

DAZED: What do you think about Tokyo party scene? How do you like to be placed in?
TFR: We don't really know what kind of parties are going on in Tokyo. We don't want to take ourselves within the context of Tokyo or anywhere on the earth. We prefer being regarded as a metaphysical concept without being restricted by biased idea, the name of a city or a country would possibly give.

DAZED: Could you tell me about the fashion style of the TFR guests? Do you have a special dress code?
TFR: Dress code = Individuality. Nothing is more important.

DAZED: Tell me about the concept of the exhibition you had this year, "POST NO FUTURE" at hiromiyoshii gallery.
TFR: Fashion is hentai. We can not help the association between something as superficial and hedonistic as fashion and the mere sexual pleasure full stop. Therefore, for us, a fashion personae who is not a hentai, it is an impostor, a traitor, an alienated puritan in disguise following trends who might just finish his days without a notion of personal style nor fashion itself. Fashion can be zoophiliac, necrophiliac, paediophiliac, dendrophiliac...all the paraphilias. And this can sound as obscene as fascinating, but most of all we are just trying to give an idea of the precariety of fashion these days. We spread fashion in all senses, and are here only to encourage creativity in personal hentalism.

DAZED: Do you have any plans to start up a new project?
TFR: Travel report by TFR's half Naokoula who is in a world round trip right now. And UBUROI, a fashion label for people who likes concepts like NarziB.

Thanks Dazed&Confused

english\\\\What is recorded here is not necessarily our experience. It can be an absolute fiction all made up in our head, or as a matter of possibility, something we MIGHT have experienced, or perhaps something we DID experience but in some other place or time. We have two kinds of journeys at the same time: the outward and inward. Our outward journey is governed by the clock and the budget, but inward one ignores the boundaries of place and time. The journey is not linear.It is always back and forth. And it is what we want to record, leaving us free from the time and the physical distance. Here, we deny the calender. We deny the map...

english\\\\JAPANESE DON'T USE THEIR FREEDOM. It's not that we believe that a perfect place exists on the Earth. But if there is something close to it, it is the subculture -the space where we can find that and those who we are looking for-, or specifically that type of independent, free, countercultural, philosophic and bold community. Lamentably, it is in this sense of subculture /community where we bump into the weakest and most demoralizing point of Japanese society.

THE THEATRICAL PERFORMANCE GROUP 'GOKIBURI KOMBINATO' @ GINZA VANILLA GALLERY

日本語\\\\『劇団ゴキブリコンビナート』に似たものを挙げるのは難しいけど、正反対のものなら色々思いつきます。そう。例えば、めざましテレビの「きょうのわんこ」とか東京タワーのイルミネーションとかディズニーランドのエレクトリカルパレードとか、、、こういったキラキラしたもの「善き」ものと対極の位置にあるのが、『劇団ゴキブリコンビナート』なのかもしれません。平成の見世物小屋あるいはDr.エクアドルのパノラマ島。そのゴキブリコンビナートがエロスとフェティッシュ専門のヴァニラ画廊で現在イベント中。化学反応式は、（秘宝館＋お化け屋敷＋シンデレラ城）÷３× H2O ＝本当にあったイカ臭い話。彼ら自身曰く“美術と演劇の最も酷い形の結合”だそうです…。「芋虫」とか「家畜人ヤプー」なんかに通じるどこか日本的なグロテスクさがありました。生々しくて、常軌を逸した激しい生の躍動。正直怖かったあ、うん。久々にオビえた。でもTFRの読者なら衝撃に耐えられるはず。ゼヒ。
＜注意＞雨ガッパを持参するか汚れても良い服装にすること！

本当にあったイカ臭い話』　５月２６日（今週土曜）まで！

english\\\\We saw the theatrical performance of 'Gokiburi Kombinato' in Ginza the other day. Or another way to say it would be "we have seen the most awful combination of art and theatrical performance in Ginza the other day". Or let me put it this way: We have experienced a sex museum, a haunted house and the Cinderella Castle at the same time right in the middle of posh Ginza the other day...
'Gokiburi Kombinato' is a Tokyo underground theatrical performance group. They are notoriously known for their disgusting and violent performance. They often attack audience with rats, pigs, shits, dirty waters, gels and stuff. They even hurt themselves to bleed. Although it is difficult to name something similar to "Gokiburi Kombinat", we can come up with something totally opposite to it. For example, the scent of coffee and croissant on Sunday morning, the decorative illumination of Christmas tree and midafternoon sunlight... Gokiburi Kombinat would be the antithesis of anything good. You know, we need this kind of stimulus sometimes. There is something about their performance that reminds me of grotesqueness in Japanese novels written in the pre- and post-war periods like "The Caterpillar"(Rampo Edogawa) or "Yapoo the Human Cattle"(Shozo Numa). It is like you are wandering around in no-way-out nightmare. The performance was both scary and entertaining. Gotta love the Japanese freak show! Gokiburi means Cockroach in Japanese, by the way.
Please bring a raincoat with you. You'll get dirty.

IN A COMPLETELY SANE WORLD, MADNESS IS THE ONLY FREEDOM

HENRY DARGER

日本語\\\\最高にトリッピーな悪夢が東京にやってきた！！“完全に理性的な世界では、狂気だけが自由への道”。ヘンリー・ダーガーの絵を見ると、いつもこのバラードの言葉が頭に浮かんでくる。アタシたちは神様が何をしたか知ってる。神様は天国でヒエロニムス・ボスにロボトミー手術して、ヘンリー・ダーガーとして転生させた。そう、あの人は悪魔的にクリエイティブだよ！（知ってたと思うけど）
ダーガーの世界では、ホロコーストや拷問だってイノセンスのかほりがする。虹色のお花畑が全部隠してくれるからかな？でも気をつけないと、ダーガーの毒は即効性はない代わり、確実にゆっくりとアタシたちを侵食していく。
ダーガーとお友達のヴェルフリとシュヴァルは一生かけて、“執着”、別名“夜のみだらな鳥”、別名“バロウズの白昼夢”、まあ呼び名は何でもいいんだけど、それが人間ってやつの本性の一端だってことを証明してくれた。処刑も戦争も強姦も虐殺も拷問もアンドロギュノスちゃんもミノタウロスちゃんも、万華鏡みたいな楽園でなら全部童話の挿絵みたい、ね。これでもうアタシたち赤ずきんちゃんの秘密が分かった。。。
とにかくいま、ダーガーの幼女神話がすぐそこで口を開けてアタシたちを待ってて、アタシたちはもう当然「オラぱらいそさ行くだ～」を合言葉に、堕ちる準備は１２０％DONE！！

スケジュール: 2007-04-14 ～ 2007-07-16
　　　　　　　　　11:00 ～ 17:00
アーティスト: ヘンリー･ダーガー
原美術館: http://www.haramuseum.or.jp/

english\\\\VOTRE ATTENTION SVP! The most trippy nightmare has arrived at Tokyo!!!
"In a completely sane world, madness is the only freedom." Everytime I see Henry Darger's work, this J. G. Ballard quote pops to my mind like unescapable Pavlovian response. I know what the holy man upstairs did. He has done a lobotomy on Hieronymus Bosch, and reincarnated him as Henry Darger. Yes, our holy mechanic above is satanicly creative (which I know you are already aware of!)
Even though some terrible shit is going on all around, Darger's world looks innocently pure. Maybe because rainbow-colored alpine meadow softly hides all evil act? We've got to watch out though. Darger's madness doesn't have immediate effect on you, but later it gradually eats you away like a parasite...
Darger and his amigos Adolf Wolfli and Ferdinand Cheval as well, of course, has proved obsession (a.k.a. "el obsceno pajaro de la noche", a.k.a. "daydream of burroughs", or whatever you may call it) is one aspect of human fucking kind. War, execution, rape, orgy, holocaust, torture, the androgynus, freaks...in his kaleidoscope utopia, everyshit looks like one adorable children's book!! Now we all know the secret of Little Red Ridinghood.... So, this panoramic pedophileutopia of Henry Darger is swinging its ass off for us in Shinagawa, and we can hardly wait to indulge into the perverted mythology!!!

Schedule: From 2007-04-14 To 2007-07-16
Artist: Henry Darger
Website: http://www.haramuseum.or.jp/
Fee: Adults ¥1000, Students ¥700
Venue Hours: From 11:00 To 17:00
Access: 15 minutes on foot from JR Shinagawa station

P.S. I wanna go to a fancy Tokyo party with the Vivian Girls printed cocktail dress. If I ever dress up like that, I hope, then, this half-rotten voluptuous refrain stops going round and round in my head...it's my only wish...

THE NOMADIC MUSEUM

日本語\\\\米国では賛否両論の二極化が激しいAshes and Snow展に行く。日本では、自分が見る限り、批判的な意見はほとんどゼロに近い。
Ashes and Snowは、写真家グレゴリー・コルベールによる現在も進行中のプロジェクト。グレゴリー・コルベールは、15年以上にわたり、インド、エジプト、ミャンマー、トンガ、スリランカ、ナミビア、ケニア、南極、アゾレス諸島その他の地域で人間と自然の交流をテーマに写真を撮り続けている。
2002年、Ashes and Snowはヴェネツィアのアーセナルで初めて公開。その後ニューヨーク、カリフォルニアのサンタモニカを経て、現在東京お台場に移動。運送用のコンテナやリサイクル可能な材料でこのミュージアムは作られており、50枚を超える写真による大型芸術作品、60分の映像1本、9分の動画2本を見ることが出来る。この遊動展示館は今後世界中を旅して回る予定だが、最終的な目的地は決まっていない。
この展示は、ディスカバリー･チャンネルのようなドキュメンタリーとは全く違い、どちらかと言えばシュルレアル・アートと呼ぶほうが相応しいように思う。展示されている写真は、動物譜寓話集や聖書の挿絵を想起させるような幻想的な静けさに満ちている。
米国での批判の根幹にあるのはアメリカの抱える悪夢（罪悪感ともいえるかもしれない）であり、日本でこの批判が出ないのは特に不思議ではない。この差異をわざわざ明記するのは、自分がそうとは知らないうちに影響されている文化というものに常に意識的でありたいから。
コルベールは紛れもないアーティスティックな人だと思う。明らかに、彼は作品を通じて『現実』ではなく彼自身の『精神』世界を表現しようとしていて、誰も彼の作品を欺瞞に満ちた世界観などと言う権利は無いと思う。ただ、これらの予備知識を別にしても、個人的にアート以外の様々な主義思想を考えさせられる展示だった。あるイデオロギーから自由になりたいと望めば望むほど、そのシステムに捕らわれてしまうというのは皮肉なものです。。。どちらにせよ、展示そのものは建築も含め非常に良く出来ており、作品の効果を最大限に引き出している。移動する美術館という概念はユニークで、厳かな雰囲気の中で非日常的な感覚を体験することが出来る。是非一度足を運んで、どう感じたか教えて下さい。

スケジュール: 2007年3月11日～2007年6月24日
　　　　　　　月曜～木曜 11:00-19:00, 金曜～日曜、祭日 10:00-22:00

english\\\\The exhibition Ashes and Snow has brought on active debates over its pros and cons in the U.S., on the other hand, I find almost no criticism against the exhibition in Japan.
Ashes and Snow is an ongoing project by Gregory Colbert who, over the course of 15 years, has made more than 40 expeditions to India, Egypt, Myanmar, Tonga, Sri Lanka, Namibia, Kenya, Antarctica, the Azores, Borneo, Belize, and many other locations to photograph interactions between man and nature's living masterpieces.
Ashes and Snow was first revealed to the public at the Arsenale in Venice, Italy, in 2002, then travelled to New York City and Santa Monica, California. Constructed primarily out of shipping containers and other recyclable materials, the exhibition, which consists of more than 50 large-scale photographic artworks, a 60-minute feature film, and two 9-minute films, has been on display at the Nomadic Museum in Odaiba, Tokyo, from March 11 through June 24, 2007. Its final destination has been yet unknown.
The exhibition was nothing like an animal documentary - it was rather surreal art. The magical serenity throughout those images made me to recall mythical bestiary and biblical imagery.
The criticism in the U.S. seems derived from national perpetual nightmare (you may call it guilty conscience), and there is nothing surprising that I see no criticism like that in Japan. I mention this difference here because I always would like to be keenly aware of the unconscious cultural influence on my interpretation. I see that Mr. Colbert is an artist trying to depict not the REAL world but his INTERNAL world, and I believe no one is entitled to judge his work as "pseudo-profundity". However, aside from my prior knowledge about advance reviews, I must admit that there is something in this exhibition that distracts me from enjoying his art itself. Something that activates my left brain instead of the other side. It is ironic; the more I wish to get rid of the influence of an ideology, the more I feel captured in the system... In either case, the show was perfectly organized to maximize the effect of his works with the ethereal architecture by a renowned Japanese architect, Shigeru Ban. With the unique concept of exotic travelling museum, you would be able to experience the extraordinary atmosphere. It's well worth seeing, so please get yourself down to the exhibition and let me know your opinion.
