Reflections on Art and Education: Shaping Social Change” with Jacqueline de Montaigne and Marcela Nacif

On a beautiful September morning, CreativeMornings Lisbon drew an impressive crowd to the stunning Jardim das Oliveiras at the Centre Cultural de Belem. Making the most of the Portuguese autumn sun, guests mingled in the garden set against the backdrop of the Tagus River and iconic Ponte 25 de Abril, one of the city’s most recognisable landmarks.

A Saturday morning edition didn’t deter the creatives who turned out for one of our biggest meetings, with delicious empanadas served alongside energy drinks by @SAVG and coffee by Lavazza to keep those attending nourished and refreshed before our talk began. As the presentation opened, we learned this month’s global theme, chosen by the Oklahoma chapter of CreativeMornings: Reflection.

The speakers in Lisbon would share their unique reflections on art, education and social change. The first speaker, Marcela of Brave Generation Academy, took us on a journey through her vision for education. She believes a change is necessary and that initiatives, creative thinking and technology are the way to deconstruct our concept of what “education” means.

Four years ago, Brave Generation Academy – an NGO set up to make education more effective and successful - created a hub, led by people who believed education needs to change. Instead of having a building with classrooms, they realised (thanks to technology), you could spread classrooms around the world. Instead of having just one teacher, it might be more helpful to have two: one who looks after the academic curriculum, while the other motivates the best version of the student to emerge. Brave Generation Academy created hubs around the world, with thousands of students in 9 different countries. Learners study online, through a synchronous programme. Brave Generation Academy allows education to be more effective and accessible to learners, and empowers learners who couldn’t access education before, to see it’s not that hard to make education accessible. “We realised we can democratise education. If you have internet access and the will to learn, you can.”

The idea, Marcela explained, was to not make profit, but to convert cashflow into scholarships so anyone who wanted to go could attend. And so, over 300 entry scholarships were created, alongside non-profit initiatives including a not-for-profit hub. The ethos of BGA centers the students. Their projects include a hub in a refugee camp in Kenya, a program for students from Gaza, and a refugee camp in Congo. For those who are fleeing war and trauma, underfunded education systems that offer little prospects are not uncommon. By teaching refugees digital skills, in a hub that fosters a sense of community while following an internationally recognised curriculum, Brave Generation Academy helps to empower learners to build their own path: taking control of the learning process at their own pace. Marcela then posed an important question: Without educated young people, who will rebuild countries that have been torn apart by war? Without them, perhaps no one. “It’s not that hard to change education, we just have to change our mindset.”

Next, we heard from the artist and activist Jacqueline de Montaigne, who has painted murals around the world: many of which are used in social initiatives. Jacqueline uses guilding in a public way - with a minimal amount of paint, reducing the eco footprint – to tell stories through symbolism. Her art brings natural and figurative elements to an urban context, to create a fascinating juxtaposition of (what we might think of as) opposing forces.

Although she grew up in a household of activists, her journey as one began upon the birth of her second son. There was no one in the hospital that could help to provide guidelines or evidence-based information about baby feeding. Through this experience Jacqueline became involved with social change at a policy level, to help change national guidelines and train national forces in how to feed minors in the event of a national emergency. Her activism focused upon the correct marketing and labelling of baby formula products, while her artistry has seen her paint murals to raise awareness about breastfeeding.

Jacqueline has also painted refugee camps with educational murals, which break through language barriers. Her work with murals began when she painted a small one at Lisbon’s Lx Factory, and she discovered she was hooked. She decided to use this medium as a platform for social good, to bring awareness to issues using non-invasive paste-ups that can be removed by sponging off afterwards. She was the first Portuguese woman to be ranked globally for her mural painting. However, during her presentation Jacqueline also brought our attention to the challenges faced by women who want to become full-time artists: less than 3% of artists can afford to live off their work, and in the global market, less than 2% of work is allocated to women. But she left us on a hopeful note, as her work has led her around the world, having special interactions with normal people who have become the muses of her murals. “Regardless of age, there’s nothing to stop you following your dreams. The impact we can have on other people’s lives is massive.” And with that, our CreativeMornings guests returned to the sunny Lisbon afternoon a little lighter.

At the same time as bodily hygiene, Italy taught politeness, in particular good manners at the table and in society in general. In 1598, the printing-house of Jean de Tournes edited a booklet of etiquette, 'Le Galatée, premièrement composée en italien par I. de la Case, depuis mis en François, Latin et Espagnol par divers auteurs' [Galateo, first composed in Italian by Giovanni della Casa and since translated into French, Latin, and Spanish by diverse authors]. Casa opposed 'the gentle and courteous way of life' with what he called 'sour and rustic manners.' He gave advice that provided curious interpretations of what he named rustic manners: 'not sniffing one's food or drink, not presenting a glass from which one has already drank to someone else,' and much less 'not presenting to another a pear or other fruit from which one has already bitten.' Some conducted themselves at the table like pigs. They ate messily to the point of soiling the tablecloths, which became dirtier than their handkerchiefs. Casa also recommended not to clean one's nails in public, to avoid unbecoming gestures like poking, and not to sit or stand too close when talking to others...That this booklet was edited in Lyon reveals the Italian presence in the city. We can use these small means to learn whether this advice for better behavior in public--particularly at the table--was better respected in Lyon by the Italians than by the French. Forks were used inside the homes of booksellers originating on the Peninsula. Luxembourg de Gabiano listed two dozen each of silver forks and spoons from his house on the Rue Mercière in his will. Thirty years later in 1588, a bookseller from Lucca, Paolo Bianchi, used several silver objects, including six spoons and six forks, to pay back a master hosier to whom he owed 30 écus. Certainly these forks were not very numerous, but members of the court did not use them any more often, despite their higher rank. In courtiers' inventories, forks are either present in very small numbers or absent. Montaigne noted that he ate with his fingers. Henri III and his close entourage were ridiculed because they used forks at the table. If the great merchants of Lyon used this object at the table, mockery at their expense was probably frequent.

#UnDíaComoHoy: 13 de septiembre en la historia

El 13 de septiembre es el día 256.º día del año. Quedan 108 días para finalizar el año. Te presentamos una lista de eventos importantes que ocurrieron un día como hoy 13 de septiembre.

-Hoy se conmemora el Día Internacional del Chocolate. Esta fecha fue instaurada en Francia en 1995 como homenaje a Roald Dahl, autor de la celebre “Charlie y la Fábrica de Chocolate”, quien nació un 13 de septiembre de 1916.

-122: en el norte de Inglaterra, los romanos comienzan la construcción del Muro de Adriano (hasta el año 132). El Muro o Muralla de Adriano es una antigua construcción defensiva de la isla de Britania, levantada por orden del emperador romano Adriano para defender el territorio britano sometido, al sur de la muralla, de las belicosas tribus de los pictos que se extendían más al norte del muro, en lo que llegaría a ser más tarde Escocia tras la invasión de los escotos provenientes de Irlanda. La muralla tenía como función también mantener la estabilidad económica y crear condiciones de paz en la provincia romana de Britannia al sur del muro, así como marcar físicamente la frontera del Imperio romano. Hoy día aún subsisten importantes tramos de la muralla, mientras que otras secciones han desaparecido al haber sido reutilizadas sus piedras en construcciones vecinas durante siglos.

-1503: en Italia, Miguel Ángel comienza su trabajo en la estatua de David. La escultura representa al Rey David bíblico en el momento previo a enfrentarse con Goliat, y fue acogida como un símbolo de la República de Florencia frente a la hegemonía de sus derrocados dirigentes, los Médici, y la amenaza de los estados adyacentes, especialmente los Estados Pontificios.

El David es una de las obras maestras del Renacimiento según la mayoría de los historiadores, y una de las esculturas más famosas del mundo. Actualmente se encuentra expuesta en la Galería de la Academia de Florencia, aunque hasta 1910 estuvo ubicada en la Plaza de la Señoría de la capital toscana; desde entonces en su lugar se erige una copia de la obra a tamaño real realizada también en mármol.

Durante este viaje, Mustaine leyó en un panfleto político el término “megadeath” (megamuerte, unidad de medida equivalente a un millón de muertes humanas empleada en cálculos del ejército estadounidense) y de ahí vino el nombre de este exponente del thrash metal. En 2009 obtuvo el puesto 1 en el libro de Joel Mclver Los 100 mejores guitarristas de metal del mundo, y en el 2010 aceptó formar parte del cartel del “Big Four”, allí compartió con los grandes precursores del thrash: Slayer, Anthrax e hizo las paces con sus ex compañeros de Metallica.

Brand Analysis: Valentino, Part I (Beginnings - 1960s)

Summary: This is an analysis of Valentino SpA, the fashion and luxury brand, through an exploration of the brand history, creative evolution, business strategy, and competitive landscape. This is part one of a series.

This post originally began as part of a group term project for Sales Management, a course I took while studying abroad at Polimoda during my undergrad (May 2017). It has been updated and expanded from it’s original 10 page format to include the addition of visuals and content. 

Beginnings

Born May 11, 1932 in Voghera, Italy, Valentino Clemente Ludovico Garavani showed interest in fashion and art. Theater, especially the costumes, would later become part of his design language. By the age of 17 he moved to Paris to study at the illustrious École des Beaux-Arts and then Chambre Syndicale de la Couture Parisienne. He started a cutting course with a former Dior premiere followed by an apprenticeship for couturier Jean Dessès in 1950. In his book, History of International Fashion, Didier Grumbach writes that Dessès clients predominantly consisted of “Greek and Egyptian courts, rich ship builders, and their entourages”; thus Dessès became well-known for embellished ball gowns and fresh takes on cruise wear, which “marked the 1950s”. The designer’s time at Dessès certainly left its mark on Valentino Garavani who’s aesthetic would also resonate with those same clientele. Five years later Valentino, with his friend and co-worker Guy Laroche, left Dessès to start Laroche’s own house. In 1959 Valentino moved back to Italy and opened his eponymous fashion house at 11 Via Condotti in Rome with the backing of his parents.

1960s

On February 28 at the via Condotti headquarters, Valentino’s first collection showed 110 looks to the Italian press. WWD archives report Valentino’s first collection consisted of “suits with short jackets, broad shoulders with set-in sleeves...and high half-belts...sometimes extending to peplums”; clients, which mostly consisted of South Americans and actresses, thought his collection was “young, fresh, and chic”. Macy’s was one of the first US retailers to support the brand and in February 1960 ran a seven column ad showcasing the available styles, retailing between $129 and $195 with a focus on tunics. Though popular amongst the fashion press, the first year of business nearly sent the company into bankruptcy. It was the help of Giancarlo Giammetti, an architecture student who dropped out of college to manage the business, that saved the house. For Fall/Winter ‘61-62, the house released its first Collezione Bianca (White Collection), which consisted of twelve look all inspired by Jacqueline Kennedy. By the end of 1961, Valentino SpA produced children's fashions and relocated to a smaller headquarters at 24 via Gregoriana. 

On July 23, 1962 (hallmarking the tenth anniversary of the first fashion show in Italy) Valentino made his debut at Pitti Palace in Florence (the former fashion capital of the Italy). He emerged as one of the brightest young talents of the season; WWD described the collection as having barreled coats and day dresses, natural shoulders, well defined waistlines, suits with rows of self trimming, and jewel-toned eveningwear. His success was in part attributed to Fellini’s neo-realist La Dolce Vita, which propagated a classic Italian aesthetic. Some of the house’s earliest clients included: Elizabeth Taylor, Rita Hayworth, Alida Valli, and Silvana Pampanini.

By Fall/Winter 1963 his designs were in the time’s most fashionable speciality and department stores such as Macy’s, Saks, May and Co, Hannah Troy, Hess Bros, and Marella Agnelli. The following year, Valentino Garavani presented his collection at the Waldorf Astoria. By 1965, the house moved its shows from Florence to Rome and opened a second studio on via Sant’Andrea. Also, the aesthetic shifted from recurring sequins and feathers to a more elegant, developed hand with the clientele to support — Jacqueline Kennedy reportedly requested all croquis of that collection for her private selection while Audrey Hepburn decamped to the burgeoning house from Hubert de Givenchy. In summer 1967, the house expanded into menswear in partnership with Celanese and rainwear collections manufactured by Lawrence of London. Next came the iconic “V” logo (emblazoned on accessories or used as an allover print) then a more romantic style showcasing ruffles, soft fabrics, fitted waists, and small busts. In May 1968 the house opened a boutique (for full line rtw, footwear, handbags, belts, and accessories) in Paris on Avenue Montaigne back by four socialites and designed by Valerian Ribba. For Spring/Summer the house proposed its second Collezioni Bianca, showcasing a suits, coats, and more in white and off-white — most notably it solidified Valentino Garavani as a couturier and served as the basis for Jacqueline Kennedy’s wedding to Aristotle Onassis. That year’s Fall/Winter couture collection was a hit amongst American buyers; wholesales tripled (reportedly prices also increased by about a third). By the close of the decade business boomed on all fronts: wholesale orders rivaled French houses, a Canadian exclusivity deal with Holt Renfrew (not to mention accounts with Bergdorf Goodman, Macy’s, and Lord and Taylor); multiple collections (women’s couture and rtw, men’s, and children); licenses; stores in New York, Paris, Milan, and Rome; the adoration of the fashion press; and a long list of jet set clients
