Living in a strictly square, cold and clinical concrete box is my idea of perfect architecture. Concrete walls, concrete floors. White furniture, steel kitchen. Emptiness and some flea market findings. /HORST
A rather romantic adaption of the Duchamps urinal. And a rather entertaining pose. A rather provocative post title as well, I may assume. Put shortly: We like to say it with flowers. /HORST
He is the perfect human and subtly sexual demonstration of how cropped works. It's all about this little centimetre between the top's hem and the trouser's waistband. The notion that this gap is not intended to be. /HORST

The staging of the artist and his subject in his workroom. A study of image. The image of the creative process as a cultural projection. A cliché. Dirty hands, dirty clothes, unfinished paintings, bare bodies - and a stylised posture. The cool and underwhelmed. A paradigm of advertising. /HORST
Models, armpits and Buffalo style. Mesh shirts, leather catsuits and broad belts. Shirts, cats and cupboards. This video might be known for an overstrung lack of taste, but mixed within are remarkably cool fashion shots. /HORST
It actually is a piece of fashion history. And I never understood the drama about this wounderful swan dress once worn by Björk. Only the ostrich variation was quite questionable. But aren't fashion sins an existential part of establishing aesthetics? /HORST
1. Borrow money from your boyfriend, respective girlfriend. 2. Go shopping together and swipe your credit card for their expenses. 3. Enjoy the feeling of being super rich. /HORST
*In this series, the author would like to share his infinite wisdom and experience as world-renowned heart-breaker, charmer and gigolo with his readers.
Horst is in love. Again. This time it is serious. How incredibly beautiful is he? The big question is now: How can I get hold of him and rope him into my universe. /HORST

Metamorphoses of an American is on its way to me. Four clothbound hardcover books, foil stamped with tipped-in image on the front, housed in a handmade slipcase. 1144 pages. 864 tritone plates. /HORST
It seems I may have discovered my adoration for crinkled objects. Evolving an image from the obvious to the mysterious. Every kink an additional layer of construction and composition. /HORST
Yes or No? I am quite content with my Brigitte Nielsen memorial haircut, but maybe it is time to get really short and sharp. Still platinum blonde of course. No risk, no fun? /HORST
If there is ever going to be a Horst collection, Brigitte Nielsen would of course be the muse and model. But she might get competition by Alek Wek. Maybe I need two muses. I need the contrast. /HORST
My little birdies Canary and Budgie are famous now. They are posing with Luke! And they look fantastic. I should start a street casting model agency representing birds, non? /HORST
This is a contemporary classic, a stand-alone piece. The cuteness factor is unreachable high. This picture even makes me like D&G for a second. Will Chalker and the baby tiger - and a modelling career took off. /HORST
