Cindy Sherman for MAC Fall 2011
When I saw the promo pics for the new MAC Fall Colour Collection for Fall 2011, which is due to launch this month, I thought these have to be a joke right?! Well no, apparently not! Cindy Sherman and MAC have teamed up on the Fall Makeup Collection and came up with these 'eye-catching' shots that have been described as 'makeup malfunctions'.
American photographer Cindy Sherman is famous for her daring, conceptual self-portraits question and challenge the way women are portrayed -- and often stereotyped -- in society and these MAC shots mirror some of her early work as shown below.
Personally, looking at these images does not sell the collection to me - in fact it makes me not want to buy any of it! However, if you manage to by-pass the ridiculous clown-like images the products are actually beautiful and surprisingly wearable.
What do you think of the promo images?

ive seen this actual collection , and its so good! avlot better for artists because mac became commercial and customer friendly rather than artistic. x
ReplyDeleteI've visited MAC's website yesterday and was wondering what the hell is going on. ;) Thanks for the explanation now. I think it is a smart move for MAC, but it'll mainly appeal to people who know about Cindy. I think they're a little OTT, but I guess that's how its supposed to be. ;) X
