Kate Moss Machine

"Es justamente una figura hueca lo que la leyenda necesita para dar forma y vida a nuevos personajes continuamente."

"Kate Moss es completamente ordinaria. Es lo que la hace extraordinaria."

"La biografía no ayuda en absoluto a comprender a una persona que se ha convertido en fenómeno social, puesto que ella misma es una construcción social."

"Moss vive una intimidad sobreexpuesta, como si fuera su testigo y su voyeur. Un dispositivo ampliamente utilizado por los reality shows, una experiencia a la vez improvisada y escenificada, medio interpretada y medio vivida, que empuja a hacer un uso estratégico de uno mismo bajo la mirada de los demás."

Christian Salmon: Kate Moss Machine
Península, 2010
Traducción de Inés Bértolo

  7. "Kate Moss es completamente ordinaria. Es lo que la hace extraordinaria". Esta frase, como las otras que reflejas, son magníficas, pero no tan buenas como las imágenes que acompañan a las frases. La frase se puede aplicar a cualquiera de nosotros, porque lo extraordinario es que seamos ordinarios (no vulgares y bastos) y comunes. Al ser tan diferentes y comunes somos extraordinarios. Tanto ella como Lucien Freud cuando la pinta o Marc Quinn cuando la esculpe.
    Ella creo que es una mujer, aparentemente, sin pudor. Eso es lo que reflejan esos artistas.

  10. DANTE, sí, con Lucien Freud. Y creo que fue al revés: llegó a una cumbre (no sé exactamente cuál) y luego fue modelo de nombres importantes.
    Lo has definido bien: consiste en hacer especial o hacer que parezca especial lo que tocas.

    Lo de la falta de pudor no me suena bien: será que no veo la relación entre pudor y desnudo.

  61. True at First Light is a book by American novelist Ernest Hemingway about his 1953–54 East African safari with his fourth wife Mary, released posthumously in his centennial year in 1999. The book received mostly negative or lukewarm reviews from the popular press and sparked a literary controversy regarding how, and whether, an author's work should be reworked and published after his death. Unlike critics of the popular press, Hemingway scholars generally consider True at First Light to be complex and a worthy addition in his canon of later fiction. In January 1954
