Presenting the Spring Issue: It’s time to play - Los Angeles Timestwitterfacebookenvelope

Our clocks have sprung forward, and the open-toed sandals and floor-length floral dresses have come out of the closet. This issue brings you luxurious and out-of-the-box spring fashion, as imagined in tarot card figures and a Louis Vuitton-inspired picnic. In the words of stylist Jess Mori, “spring is the best time to play.” In this spirit, these stories are a frolic through the mesmerizing worlds of many artists. Glenjamn takes us behind the scenes at stylish, celebrity-laden parties. Arthur Jafa gives us a glimpse into his latest work, which will be exhibited this spring. Twelve artists take over Jeffrey Deitch and put together a group show on their own terms, laying the groundwork for what a show like this can do. This, and more, in the Image Spring Issue.
