05.02.08 THE ITALIEN JOB
Dance/art/music collective The Changes takes a wild week in Milan and smashes, tapes, and collages it all into one book

Exemplifying the different strokes for different folks aesthetic in more ways than one is a new book titled Italiens, brought to you by a dance/art/music troupe that answers to the name of The Changes. In 2007, they arrived in Italy for a party celebrating an exhibition opening during Milan Design Week. One year later, they're releasing a book of the adventure that once was. Think sci-fi sound tracks, tortellini alla panna, re-interpreted ad campaigns, punk music overtones, mozzarella, disco and mama-style momentos featuring everything and more from fellow clique members including Fergadelic (Tonite UK), Skatething (BBC/IceCream JPN), and Shauna & Misha (PAM). Highly recommended viewing for anyone who gets off on being lost in translation or better still, for those who consider themselves connaisseurs of what the French call “n’importe quoi.” A definite must-have for any bookshelf with balls.

Italiens is out now from PAM Books.
Available at I Heart, NYC. 262 Mott Street, 212.219.9265
