beautiful squeegee paintings by Gerhard Richter

> collecting inspiration for my trend prediction project, looking to summer/spring 2012, looking to combine the idea of distortion-abstraction, with print against sleek, classic feminine silhouettes...i love the blurring and merging of colours in Richter's paintings, especially his surrealist work, painting over photographed images, to create a surreal view of an existing setting.
 LOVE his colour schemes and mark making.

Zara's weird and wonderful window displays, autumn 2010.

Love the whole concept of this window display, the satirical view of fashion, ie,''being a clothes horse''- models with horse hair manes, were positioned around scrap paper and magazines, like their 'bedding', carrot props and theatrical masks sprout from the rubbish, suggesting a facade?
 Liking the use of layering throughout the display, textures clashing- knitts, furs, lace, prints, denim, topped off with  the essential pair of winter boots.
