Before heading west to California, we frolicked on one of our other favorite coastlines, the Côtes d'Armor in the Brittany region of France. From fresh mussels, clams, oysters and scallops to buckwheat crepes in their place of origin and lots of incredibly beautiful cove beaches... the Brittany coast is one of the most magical places on earth. <br />

Out of the connections, experiences and inspiration from 3 years of working on food and travel documentary television... birthed our very own project. We've shot a film! It's called "Prestige Ingredients" and stars Alia Shawkat, Pierre Jancou and Redouanne Harjane. What a whirlwind it's been. We are in the post-production stage and have a <a href="http://trailofcrumbsproductions.tumblr.com/">production diary over here</a>. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Its been a while since I've published stories and photographs here on my Paris Diary. After some time reveling the new me (I became a mother!), and working on a ton of new projects in the little spare time I had during my babe's newborn days... well I've come out from the cave. Hello. Happy new year to all of you and look forward to sharing more magic with you in 2014. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I invite you to discover my gastro travelogue on <a href="http://www.thetrailofcrumbs.com/">www.thetrailofcrumbs.com</a>. Featuring stories from around the world about the special hidden corners and the standout food experiences there. I have been putting lots of good energy into it and it's blossomed more than I could of imagined. All organically so, which means so much to me. Between working with Anthony Bourdain on his emmy award winning shows, "No Reservations" and "The Layover", and attending some of the most memorable dinner events of my life... well, The Trail of Crumbs is a labor of love that has turned into something that has loved me back. And the rest of the world as it turns out. Thank you.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Cheers!</div>

<i>Greetings</i> is a collection of new work from Californian artists, Kyle Field, Nathaniel Russell, and Alia Shawkat. The work will explore the literal and abstracted meanings of a greeting: the first words from an unknown being, a message from a foreign land, a signal from the afterlife, a connection of the individual with the infinite, a personal plea to the universe, or a presence emerging from the dark. Most simply, a greeting is the turning point between the unknown and the known. As well as having actual origins in a land far from Paris, France, these three artists create work that originates from the far reaches of inner space and describes fantastic worlds, mutated beings, cosmic dreamscapes and metaphysical symbols. <i>Greetings</i> will meet you at the threshold of their other worlds and your own.<br />
<br />
Kyle Field, Nathaniel Russell, and Alia Shawkat will be bringing many pieces from their homeland, but will also be creating work for <i>Greetings</i> in France during an intensive creative residency in a medieval village in Burgundy during the weeks leading up to the opening. They endeavor to further explore the implications of the concepts behind <i>Greetings</i> while existing and creating as foreigners in an unfamiliar setting. During this time they will also realize the collaborative musical experience that will be performed at the opening event. Kyle Field has been performing and recording for years under the name Little Wings; Nathaniel Russell plays and records music under the name Birds Of America; Alia Shawkat has recently been performing jazz standards in New York and Los Angeles.<br />
<br />
The Gallery has created a blog that follows the 3 artists during their residency in the countryside where I'll be posting photos daily: <a href="http://www.greetingsatbrachfeld.tumblr.com/">www.greetingsatbrachfeld.tumblr.com</a></div>

Enjoying these California days. This morning we grubbed on La Cantina breakfast burritos and tripped on the architecture of beachside college town, Isla Vista. Home to USCB. Wandered around and it all felt ultra College dayz movie-esque. Young folks feeling free in Pajamas with massive smoothies. Lots of bikes and surfboards. Youth island.</div>

Being back in California makes me reflect on life in Paris way more than when I'm actually living there. I tend to channel old Hollywood vibes when photographing women friends of mine in Paris. Here's one featuring one of my Paris muses, Hélène. I want to see this photo as a painting using a Hockney palette in LA.</div>Danielle Rubihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04088603404485506715noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080477844427618705.post-19061511252660565782012-01-05T16:18:00.000-08:002012-01-05T16:21:08.940-08:00Get Free<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Japanese artist, Yayoi Kusama, transformed the children's art center at Brisbane's Gallery of Modern Art with the help of tiny hands. She offered children colorful dot stickers and asked them to apply them to 'The Obliteration Room'. This interactive installation was first commissioned by the Queensland Art Gallery for Kids' in 2002. </div>

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">When in Milan recently I met a talented group of warm folk who all seem to revolve around furniture design and art. One dude in particular whose sense of humor and sensibility was somehow familiar and comforting to be around ( especially coming from Paris where the good humor realm is sort of tweaked), was Jakub Zak. I am stunned by his work. It's industrial design meets art and craft in all the right places.<br />

So much goodness it's kind of hard to take. The company is called <a href="http://www.yuketen.com/index.php/">Yuketen</a> and <i>"...Since 1985, designer Yuki Matsuda has paid homage to the American crafts and traditions by treasure hunting for outstanding examples of footwear and luggage in remote locales spread out across the rolling Appalachians to the high Sierras."</i><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">My mellow mannered bearded Parisian bro, <a href="http://www.bouroullec.com/">Erwan Bouroullec</a>, would not normally come off as someone who would have anything to do with the palace of Versailles. He and his brother Ronan have won a competition to design a permanent addition to the glorious Gabriel staircase inside the palace. They have yet to announce the piece, but I'll keep you posted. The staircase was originally designed in 1772 by architect Ange-Jacques Gabriel, yet was only completed in 1985.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

</tbody></table><div style="text-align: justify;">Also, they curently have a retrospective featuring the last 10 years of their work at the <a href="http://www.centrepompidou-metz.fr/en/ronan-erwan-bouroullec-bivouac">Pompidou-Metz</a> in the alsatian region of France. It's a huge deal for them as they were also named designers of the year by the Maison & Objet trade show this year. All this while still young and have so much ahead. So much is happening for these guys. Im very proud of Erwan and his work because he takes inspiration from the best source: nature. He's a gentle soul with a timeless vision and a great sense of humor.<br />

<a href="http://www.adrianrubidentzel.com/Adrian_Rubi-Dentzel/ADRIAN_RUBI-DENTZEL.html">Adrian</a> helps produce various pieces of the Bouroullec's for <a href="http://www.galeriekreo.fr/exhibitions/61-bouroullec/">furniture exhibitions</a> at Gallery Kreo. Adrian says " ...I always enjoy working on Bouroullec pieces. They have a natural quality almost like a plant or animal, and when working on them in close proximity you can feel their character, the affect they have in your personal space."</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

The region has serene beaches, salty sea folk and a chill countryside vibe.

We drove north yesterday to see the sea. While cruising around the harbor of Honfleur, I walked with a gasoline slick shape for a while. This is it. Even though it's a toxic floater, I was struck by it's trippy beauty. I sort of love it as an album cover image. I like making graphic designs using my camera as the tool.Danielle Rubihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04088603404485506715noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080477844427618705.post-65386601451249039582011-10-06T07:03:00.000-07:002011-10-25T02:04:28.100-07:00MichelleDuring our annual September photo shoot with singer-songwriter, Michelle Schmitt, we visited Versailles for the palatial light and basked in the sunset magic during a boat ride down the river Seine. What started as a professional relationship, has organically evolved into a deep friendship. I love when that happens.<br />
