24th February to 5th April 2012: The Ruins of Detroit, Wilmotte Gallery

We have the Steidl book of Yves Marchand & Romain Meffre’s haunting photographs that document Detroit’s decline, so I’m looking forward to seeing the photography on a bigger scale.

16th February 2012: Selfridges Women’s Designer Galleries launch
Phase one of Selfridges’ Women’s Designer Galleries opens this week inspired by Europe’s best concept stores. Technology and service feature in a big way with iPads available to allow shoppers to pre-order exclusive runway looks and the option to store 3-D images of customers to cut down on trying-on time. Alongside eight designer boutiques (including Celine, Prada, Dries Van Noten and Chanel) there will be edits from Haider Ackermann, Gareth Pugh, Rick Owens and Junya Watanabe – AKA some of the most directional names around. I will especially be looking forward to Tanya Ling‘s illustrations adorning the walls.
