Dear readers,

"Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work." A wise quote by philosopher Aristotle, which we picture by many dif-ferent artworks in our SUPERIOR DIGITAL October issue.

We asked illustrators from all over the world to think about an illustrated cover for this October's issue. Ten submissi-ons reached the final round and they are all so different from each other but great in their very special way. The illustration from Christina Alonso got the most votes and she got the cover. Interviews with the illustrators give a closer look on inspiration and what art is to them.

In #SELECTION we present a very talented young fashion desig-ner from Italy - Cristian Profico, telling us about his first fashion design collection.

# Editorial

An interview with the organizers of Frankfurt Style Award relinquishes a new internationality in the fashion award for young fashion designers and excites us for next year's award event.

Another artist, who take Aristotle's quote by heart are Artists Anonymous. They furnished a whole gal-lery and created a new world for visitors of their current London exhibition. You feel a little like Alice in Wonderland while walking throw the total work of art. We met Artists Anonymous exclusively before the opening and almost fell into the rabbit burrow because of our childlike curiosity.

Last but not least SUPERIOR DIGITAL shows nine fashion editorials from all places around the world. For example, photographer Kryzstof Wyzynzski playing with light and form in his "Arachne" editorial, Lena Kholkina with "Arcimboldo revisited" reworking her editorial with shape and graphic or "Luv Triangle" editorial by Neil Francis Dawson showing a powerful woman in relationship.

Enjoy more than 150 pages SUPERIOR DIGITAL October 2013...

Best,

Tom and Marc

Andy Picci# Since when do you work as an illustrator? How did you get to your job and where did you learn?

I'm more an artist than simply an illustrator… I started my artistic career studying photography, but I didn't want to get stuck in a specific medium. Soon, I started writing, filming and, of course, painting. Because of my inability to paint a human face, I started painting on photographs and it became my main artistic style.

# Where do you get your inspirations from and what is your style of illustration like?

It's quite complicated because I tend to get influenced by everything and everyone. I just observe everything and try to find what I like in it. I think my artworks are some kind of psychedelic-neo-pop-art… maybe.

# What do you want to express with your illustrations?

The objective of my artworks is to force the audience to be true to their own personality and persuade them to put aside their different portrayals in order to accept them-selves as they are, to avoid falsely identifying with a celeb-rity and to stop role-playing in their own life. In other words, to abandon the role of spectator and instead be-come the main actor in their own life.

# What are your future goals?

The next step in my career is to find a gallery to repre-sent me. The final step of my career is to get my name in a history book.

# How would you describe your interpretation of SUPERIOR Magazine cover?

Having a chance to be on the cover of a magazine is to-tally appropriate for my concept. In fact, what matters more – which celebrity is on the cover, or which image is on the cover? For this proposition I took a self-portrait, imitat-ing in the closest way an advertisement featuring a celeb-rity (Peter Doherty for Roberto Cavalli 2007 in this case). Then I had masked my face, with this muscular/butterfly style. The idea is to disrupt the public: "Is it a celebrity on the cover of this mag?" Does that really matter? Aren't we suppose to like a magazine for what it makes us discover and be aware of?

# Since when do you work as an illustrator? How did you get to your job and where did you learn?

After being graduated by the University of Valencia in Hispanic Philology in 2012, I decided to redirect my forma-tion towards the artistic world, so that I could make illus-tration my profession.

That same year I attended a postgraduate course on Pro-fessional Illustration at the School of Art and Technology of Valencia (ESAT), which radically changed and widened the former vision I had of this profession. Since that moment I began exposing my artwork in many exhibition halls and galleries of emerging art from all over Spain. Thanks to the diffusion of my illustrations via internet several brands, publications and editorial projects have been interested in my artwork.

That is the reason why I am currently combining a new master’s degree in Design and Illustration Polytechnic Uni-versity of Valencia (Spain), with my job as a freelance illus-trator.


I’ve always believed that inspiration is the result of the combination of two factors: living wide open to the world around you, receptive as a sponge that absorbs all infor-mation that surrounds you, and hard and constant effort. This is the reason why I find inspiration from everywhere: from a conversation on the subway, in a good novel, in the echo of a song that resounds in my head, at the theatre’s stage... and of course, at my desk.

Just like every graphic artist also does, I have grown up ad-miring the great classical art masters, apart from nourish-ing myself of all the current arstitical movements I am able to, drenching myself constantly in their innovation and novelty. The idea is not coming to a standstill.

Regarding to my style, which could be defined as figurative and oniric, I truly believe I own so much to Victorian Paint-ing, to the Gothic, to Pop Surrealism, to pin-up illustration and to the fashion world.


The nature of my illustrations is poetical, with a very strong bond between the graphic side of them and the story they long to narrate.

Illustration is to me a more or less symbolic medium, more or less direct, to express both personal and collective feel-ings, critics, dreams, restlessness... and granting them the taking of a form. It is the best way I know to get myself expressed, and at the same time the only one I know to chase my ghosts away.


Although my head is a constant swarm of future ideas, I am currently focusing myself on the upcoming projets. Among them it lies the preparation for my first solo exhibi-tion in Spain, ‘Visual Metaphors’. Also, I am developing a fashion illustration book, with which I long to cross fron-tiers and let my artwork reach new horizons abroad. In ad-dition, in January 2014, my artwork will be included in the illustration book called ‘Fashion Figurines. Techinques and Styles’ published by the renown Anaya Multimedia pub-lishing house, with international distribution.


October is autumn, changes, endless contrasts... I just crave to evoke it in the attitude of my cover: a clear clash between colours, black and white, yet united by the au-tumnal shade that colour purple is representing here; a clear confrontation between the romantic sensitivity that the female figure embodies and the potency with which her stare caughts the eye of the magazine readers, which is an open invitation to delve deeper into the magazine.

Also, three keys of Superior do appear in the attempt of cover I propose: fashion, reflected in the clothing and in the small boot; beauty, highlighted by the purple shades; and the photograph, conveyed in a slightly off-set frame in which the character is placed. An interpretation that in-vites the reader to dive into this season full of contrasts.

Kendall D. Lock# Since when do you work as an illustrator? How did you get to your job and where did you learn?

Illustration is a new career for me! I started as a make-up artist and hair stylist, but I’d always wanted to return to my fine art roots. I attended the Savannah College of Art and Design and was lucky enough to find a mentor, Julie Lieberman, who pushed me out of my comfort zone.


My style leans toward Lowbrow or Pop Surrealism, so I find myself playing up color and dreamy figures. A few of my favorite contemporary artists are Audrey Kawasaki, Hsiao-Ren Cheng and Mark Ryden. I like their attention to delicacy. Very powerful and vulnerable at the same time.


In fashion, I’m most inspired by the concept behind a collection. I like to focus on the mood and emotion of the garment. There’s beauty in movement, but I want to cap-ture something deeper.


Starting a textile collaboration would be an absolute dream. But really, I think the best part of this job is the ele-ment of surprise. The sky is the limit!


SUPERIOR has incredible covers with attention to color and lighting, so capturing that was crucial for me. The cov-ers are always very contemporary: ultra hip, evocative, playful. I used the Undercover S/S 2014 collection as a baseline and amplified it to what I felt the SUPERIOR read-er might like.

Gosia Herba # Since when do you work as an illustrator? How did you get to your job and where did you learn?

Back in 2008 I sent a lot of letters to polish editors and publishers. One of them liked my portfolio and I got the first job. It was a series of illustrations which was published by polish monthly magazine about psychology. Thanks to that publication, more people got to know my work and I quickly started to illustrate for other polish magazines. I'm an "amateur" as I have no Academy of Arts diploma. I was studying at art high school for 5 years, after that I finished art history at the University of Wroclaw.


I find inspirations in everything that sur-rounds me. In myself and my relationships with other people. As an art historian I have a huge personal art gallery in my head and I find lots of inspiration there. On the other hand sometimes such knowledge makes the creating process more difficult. I spend a lot of time reading books about anatomy, history of monsters and freaks; also about human body and its imita-tions: puppets, mannequins or humanoids. I like to observe a nature recently - I'm fascinated by leafy plants especially.


When I make press illustration I have to be faithful to the text and remember that most of the people want to see nice, sweet and funny pictures. My personal artworks are a little dif-ferent - darker, more bizarre. I put emphasis on the mood of the picture.


I work out of the way. And I wish to continue my life and work in that way. Of course, I dream of big exciting jobs and interesting publications but my major goal is just drawing, drawing and drawing... In the near future I`m going to finish my project with GIF-painting and hand painted porcelain collection.

# How would you describe your interpreta-tion of SUPERIOR Magazine cover?

My cover girl looks a little like a boy. I think that she could be a little dark glamour super-hero or a computer game character. Her clothes may resemble Pre-Raphaelite style. We can see an old-fashioned cap and black flounce shirt. Even then, I think that she comes from the fu-ture. Her face is adorned by red aggressive make-up, which modifies her physiognomy - like a mask. My girl submerges in the back-ground swirling pattern - in a moment she will teleport herself into another space. She is a su-perior creature.

# Since when do you work as an illustrator? How did you get to your job and where did you learn?

I am self-educated and started my career as an illustrator as a T- Shirt designer in 2006.


I use miscellaneous music, photography, memories and landscapse in Japan as inspira-tion.

My style is a weird Manga- Style. Something like that.

# What do you want to express with your il-lustrations?

I want to express meditation and insanity.


I have no idea. I think I'll just do steady busi-ness activities at this stage.


It is suitable for a fashion magazine cover. I'd like to make it feel slightly unique.

Bijou Karman# Since when do you work as an illustrator? How did you get to your job and where did you learn?

I am studying at Art Center College of Design, where I am about to graduate in spring 2014. Starting to focus on il-lustration came with starting my studies there, but I’ve done art my whole life in one form or another.


Inspiration can come from anywhere, even driving on the freeway or walking down the street. But I often get inspired by looking at magazines, books, the internet, mov-ies, strangers, visiting museums, listening to music, and especially going to new places. I would say my work is very stylized and whimsical.


I always want my creations to be part of my own world. I think of the girls I draw as my own type of girl and I like her to usually be moody. If it looks like she’s thinking about something in particular, something you can’t quite figure out, that’s a good thing to me.


I want to grow more successful as an illustrator and be able to support myself by working on projects I love. I also want to be involved with the fashion world, especially fashion publishing. A dream of mine is to be a fashion editor. On top of all that, I want to travel all over the world and live in different places.


I conjured up my dream girl for SUPERIOR. She is sad and beautiful. She seems to know something we don’t. There is an element of strangeness and mystery to it.

Tina Siuda# Since when do you work as an illustrator? How did you get to your job and where did you learn?

I started doing illustrations three years ago. I don ́t re-ally think of it as my ‘job’, it ́s rather a thing I enjoy and want to do for the rest of my life. I had my first illustration class almost by accident during a scholarship in Lisbon. Since I was an Erasmus student in a foreign country, draw-ing became my way of fighting with loneliness. Soon it be-came a good habit.


I think most things that I draw are already in my head before I know it. I just have to let it out to make space for new ideas. The things I experience every day mix with im-aginary creatures and landscapes, it’s a fusion of memo-ries. I would say my style is quite ‘unserious’. There is plen-ty of hairy men in it.


I’m not sure if I want to express anything specific. I will say I illustrate my thoughts, I have a habit of joking about

many things, and look at things from a humoristic per-spective.


Painting murals, having a silkscreen studio.


Hmm... I took the ‘no gender preference’ quite seriously so I guess my cover is an illustration of that. I thought that a guy like the one from my drawing would be glad to be amongst so many beautiful women from all the other SUPERIOR Magazine covers.

Ola Szpunar# Since when do you work as an illustrator? How did you get to your job and where did you learn?

I always knew I would get involved in art somehow. I started drawing the moment I grown up enough to hold a pencil on my own, and since then I've never stopped doing this. I've studied industrial design in Gdańsk Academy of Fine Arts and also graphic design and illustration in Ant-werpen, Belgium, eventually received my MA in product design in 2009. I've been professionally involved in graphic design and illustration for about six years now


I would describe my style as very feminine and whimsi-cal, I'm fond of clear line work and rich colors. Nature, mov-ies, vintage books and magazines are my main inspiration sources.


I'm always trying to give my illustrations this elegant and sensuous feel.


I'm willing to focus on fashion industry and design my own line of textile patterns.

# How would you describe your interpretation of SUPE-RIOR Magazine cover?

With my cover I wanted to portray a mysterious vixen, a heroine from a noir movie.

Robert Myśliwski# Since when do you work as an illustrator? How did you get to your job and where did you learn?

Well, actually I'm starting to take commissions as an il-lustrator. My main job is working as a graphic artist in a game company. But I would like to focus on freelance il-lustration only.

I've been drawing since my first days. At the end of high school I gave thought on doing this for a living. So after school I had taken some drawing lessons at the Visual Ad-vertising Collage. After that it past quite a lot of time and it was hard finding a job in the industry, but I finally did it.


For me, inspiration is everywhere. You never know what and when could something or someone give you an im-pulse to do something creative.

Hm, my style? Lately I do more colorful works that have a slightly unrealistic feel, but I would like to return to draw-ing more delicate forms, which I did in the past.


I think, I always wanted to capture beauty, but not pure beauty or perfection (I don't like this word) - something like this doesn't exist. I have heard that my works are ambigu-ity - I would stick to that.


I would like to concentrate more on doing freelance il-lustration. And in the near future I need to start a little animation work - it will be a personal project.


I always let recipients interpret my work. My personal description of the work is simple: It is October so we are in the middle of autumn. The colors may negate it (not to count hair) - they are a bit sharp. It is because winter is coming nearer and nearer. I want the illustration to be as far away from winter colors, as it can be.

And of course, it would not be me, if I wouldn't have added some clouds in the background.

# The Frankfurt STYLE AWARD reveals for the seventh time now. What stays the same? What do you change?

The Frankfurt STYLE AWARD is a talent contest and has been developed to challenge fashion design students in presenting their creativity, originality and innovative spirit. This has ever since been embedded in the context of the Award’s guiding principles and contemporary avant-garde themes. We want to encourage young fashion designers to demonstrate their creative talent to help stimulate a critical examination of social values. In 2014 and for the first time, the Award invites students from around 400 fashion schools in 34 countries to submit their sketches and outlines in one of three categories UNIFORM, UNISEX, UNICULT taking this year's guiding theme UNITED DIVER-SITY as their inspiration. As completely new, a compulsory exercise awaits all the applicants who are nominated for the final and thus invited to the Style Award Gala in Frankfurt am Main. “Pioneering Denim” is an exercise where the finalists can combine creativity and craftsman-ship seamlessly within a clearly defined framework. This special competition will get special attention and an exclusive award. A coupon of Denim will be provided to the finalists.

Our jury will be composed of "standing members" and "newcomers": Salvatore Di Bella will serve as chairman the fifth year in a row. For more than 25 years he is chef de-signer for national and international brands. As a new member Dipl-Ing. Peter Quack, lecturer in fashion & design at OSZ Bekleidung & Mode in Berlin, he will offer his exper-tise to the panel and provides us an important link to fashion schools both in Germany and abroad. In addition, a Junior Jury Member will be assigned for one year. In 2014 Riccardo Serravalle will join the jury. He was among the STYLE AWARD winners back in 2011 and 2012. In the meantime, he founded his own fashion label and designs collections for a fashion store. He will lead the Frankfurt STYLE AWARD Alumni Club and will be an excellent protagonist for all talents in fashion and design, who apply for the Award. Finally, we will also invite into the jury a fashion design expert representing the guest land.

# The award is getting more international now. What do you intend with this development?

Our long-term goal is that the young talent contest, which was founded in 2008, will transform to a career platform for fashion and design, where international fashion and design talents can meet and exchange. Fashion has always been international. Creativity is a language which overcomes every border. UNITED DIVER-SITY, our motto 2014 is supporting these facts. We learnt from the past that a majority of the participants have cross-cultural backgrounds which obviously influenced their creations. We want to develop the talent contest into a sustainable international platform for upcoming fashion design talents regardless their roots. The Frankfurt STYLE AWARD will be an institution that supports the next generation of fashion & design talent. Under the Patron-age of the City of Frankfurt am Main the Frankfurt STYLE AWARD will position Frankfurt am Main as an attractive location for upcoming creative talents.

# Why have you chosen France as your first partner country?

Christian Dior, Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Hermès, Louis Vuitton, Christian Lacroix – in France you find many of the most famous fashion labels around the world. Paris is the fashion capital and France has a very strong infrastructure for professional education in fashion and design. The country is still a must for young fashion design talents. In the next years, France will be followed by other attractive fashion & design markets as guest countries. We believe that the opening to the international fashion world and offering a platform for exchange and networking among schools and their students, coopera-tions with reknown fashion events and competitions will strengthen a lobby for talent and stimulate trends in fashion & design.

# The motto is UNITED DIVERSITY - tell us something about that.

The motto 2014 UNITED DIVERSITY continues the tradi-tion of adopting guiding themes that are both relevant and avant-garde. This has been so successful over recent years and is mirrored in our “Hall of Fame”. The basic idea behind the motto 2014 is to challenge visionary thinking and critical disput, under the aspect that despite all differ-ences and diversity we are united by our existence as human beings.

# What happens from now on until the Style Award Gala in September 2014?

The call for entry starts now. All students who are interested can apply at www.frankfurtstyleaward.com. The closing date for applications is February 28, 2014. All applications will be evaluated carefully by an experienced, interdisciplinary jury of experts, as already mentioned. In the first round the jurors will assess independently from each other concept and design and award a maximum of 15 points for each aspect. The criteria are individuality,

uniqueness, idea, colour concept and selection of materials as well as the creative plan. The best 60, 20 per category, who reached the highest total of points from the jury, will be nominated for the final in September 2014. In the final round the evaluation criteria primarily base on the implementation of the idea based on the design sketch and concept submitted. In the moment of truth – on the runway – the technical implementation, quality of crafts-manship performance and overall expression are the keys for success. Deadline for the models is end of August. The contribution of the compulsory exercise for “Pioneering Denim” has to be finished and forwarded by then, as well. After all, the Style Award Gala featuring the award winning ceremony is the climax of the talent contest. The nomi-nated finalists can look forward to an unforgettable evening as Frankfurt Airport is transformed into a Fashion Port. Fraport AG will host the evening and ensure an exceptional venue for the event. But there are many interesting highlights in the course of the award year: the Wild Card Voting to award the three additional invitations to the final apart from the 60 finalists voted by the jury. Then there is the Fitting and photo shooting of each of the finished models submitted, there will be an Online Voting for the “Audience Award” at our Frankfurt STYLE AWARD Facebook fan page. We again plan to participate at the Young Professional Day 2014 – a career platform for the fashion industry organized by the trade magazine TextilWirtschaft. Last but not least, we will have a "Welcome Young Talents" exhibition like in 2013 which will show all finalists’ models to the public at large.
