DON & BRONSON - making of @ Julian McDonald fashion shoot
04. July 2007 | 10:04
Don & Bronson is collaborative project between up-and-coming photographers Dylan Don and Oliver Bronson. Tired of repetitive, clean cut and conventional images, these two hope to add an edge to the world of fashion photography.
Both Dylan and Oliver were born in Munich, Germany and moved to England in 1999 to study arts in Cambridge. After graduating from their course, the two separated temporarily to pursue individual interests and projects. Oliver worked for Valentino in Milan and then as an assistant photographer in Paris while Dylan spent time in the film industry in Los Angeles.
Oliver then returned to Germany to become fashion editor of the well-known lifestyle magazine Deutsch in Berlin and Dylan moved to Prague to open an advertising and production agency called Sputnik. They rejoined forces in 2005 to officially launch Don & Bronson. Their work was soon recognised with nominations at international photography awards such as Cannes, Photokina and Surface. This established them as a talented, ambitious and hard-working team and brought them increasingly high-profile assignments. Currently, Don & Bronson are traveling between the United States and Europe, shooting editorials and advertisements for well-known brands and television shows.
Clearly there is not much left to say except: D & B are rolling, the others are stoned!
No, no, no. We are neither trying to be nostalgic nor debating the virtues of analogic vs digital again but simply informing you that every Thursday in the bar of Las Dalias you have the chance to dust down the vinyl collection...
Cala Bassa is in the news this month and not precisely because it is the best moment to enjoy the beach from one of CBBC beachbeds – which are fantastic – but because of the arrival of the City of Ibiza quadriathlon to celebrate its 12th edition.
This year it will be 40 years since the first fashion show that gave rise to Pasarela Adlib. To celebrate it, the Island Council has organised an exhibition that it has called 'The Adlib Revolution'.
The best thing is to be an electronic music fanatic and to discover in person how, when, and why Luciano, Carl Cox and Oakenfold managed to become what they are.
The direction taken by the legendary multi-purpose venue last summer pointed to interesting changes with respect to its becoming a platform for music, art, fashion and gastronomy.
