June 16, 2012 Jean Paul Gaultier Show

I've been working on a new recording the last few weeks, and haven't had a chance to post for a while.  The Gaultier show at The De Young Museum is a must see:  http://deyoung.famsf.org/deyoung/exhibitions/fashion-world-jean-paul-gaultier-sidewalk-catwalk
Like many musicians I'm influenced and inspired by many art forms.  Gaultier is simply a genius.  He re-defines fashion, eroticism, gender, and culture.  Co-incidentally MTV was playing Madonna's Truth or Dare documentary this morning.  I hadn't seen it in years.  Many of the costumes from that tour and the Blonde Ambition tour are at the De Young show.  I've always admired Madonna's message for young women:  Your body belongs to you, not your parents, not your church, not the state.  Bravo (and Brava) Gaultier and Madonna!
