AdamSmith Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 Brooklyn Museum spikes its fall season with "Killer Heels" Wedges, platforms and stilettos are all part of the mix in this exhibition sure to delight the shoe fetishist in you By Howard Halle Tue Jul 1 2014 timeout.com Previous Next Photograph: Brooklyn Museum; Brooklyn Museum Collection Unknown Chinese artist, Manchu women's shoe, c. 19th century People—women and men alike—can't seem to get enough of high heels, and the higher the heel, the more likely that it will attract attention. That ability to captivate is the driving principle behind the Brooklyn Museum's upcoming exhibition "Killer Heels: The Art of the High-Heeled Shoe," which will take over the institution's first-floor gallery starting September 10. The show argues that whatever the sexual connotations of high heels—and however much pain they inflict upon the wearer—they are first and foremost art objects. To illustrate this very sharp point, the exhibit will trot out examples of fetishy footwear from the 16th century to the present, courtesy of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute and the Bata Shoe Museum in Toronto. "Killer Heels" will be on view until February 15, 2015, leaving plenty of time to come out to the Borough of Kings and swoon. Just one request to all you masochists out there: Please don't lick the shoes. http://www.timeout.com/newyork/art/brooklyn-museum-spikes-its-fall-season-with-killer-heels Quote
Members Suckrates Posted July 5, 2014 Members Posted July 5, 2014 Well, while I am one that likes Diversity and would Kill for an eccentric pair of "Come Fuck me Pumps", instinct tells me that hito would undoubtedly find fault with Most of the selections on display: too high, too flat, too embellished, difficult to walk, uncomfortable, not practical, etc, etc, etc..... Give him a simple pair of YSL velvet evening slippers and call it a day !. boiworship and AdamSmith 2 Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 Oh my Suckrates on the contrary I think I will enjoy the exhibition. It's not what I think is important but understanding designer's thoughts, emotion, preference, impression and interpretation reflected on their creation. Sometimes they represent certain cultural concepts and norms that excite me and broaden my horizon. I just don't like big dicks.. They hurt... Quote
AdamSmith Posted July 6, 2014 Author Posted July 6, 2014 that excite me and broaden my horizon. For me, big dicks serve that purpose. Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 Oh my that seems painful than giving birth.. For me, big dicks serve that purpose. Quote
Members Suckrates Posted July 6, 2014 Members Posted July 6, 2014 Oh my that seems painful than giving birth.. OH MY, I think it now begs the question hito, "Have you ever HAD a big dick" ???? Figuratively, not Literally ! Here's a tip: if it hurts in your Ass, try it in your Mouth (unless you have one of those little, delicate Geisha girl mouths).. Then you would have to practice, practice, practice..... If you dont get the hang of it (pun), then you'll certainly make it to Broadway ! AdamSmith 1 Quote
