What's New Pussycat?
Spring-Summer 2010 is all about edge, and Minna Parikka is riding high! From happy strappy sandals to kiss-my-feet flats, Minna’s shoes are like lovely little pieces of wearable candy. With a color palette ranging from fruity hues to electric blues, the collection is a medley of sweet and saucy, naughty and nice. And who stacks a heel so high you could use it as a weapon? Well Minna Parikka, of course. Bedecked with her trademark bows, lacing, wings and hearts, Minna’s shoes and buttery-soft, silk-lined gloves are boldly feminine and, as always, made of the finest leather, suede, patent and satin.

Barbie dolls were extremely significant in fueling my creative life as a child. They were controlled and manipulated to fit infinite situations of my choosing. I immersed myself in on-going narratives (complete with elaborate hand-made dwellings) where all my fears, embarrassments, joys and explorations of human interactions could be played out like characters on a stage. An invaluable tool for the expansion of my imagination as a child, ironically, Barbie continues to be such for me as an adult.

Whether you love her or hate her, there are few who feel neutral about the plastic princess. I am fascinated with who she is as a cultural icon, her distinguished celebrity status, and the enormous impact she has had on our society. Specifically, I’m intrigued with her influence in defining gender roles of women in contemporary American culture.

My childhood spent with Barbie cultivated my interest in adornment. Extensive play with the doll and her miniature world strengthened my dexterity: a skill imperative to the art of jewelry making. Hence it feels natural for me to make art on a small scale.

I enjoy the funny juxtaposition of wearing the body, on the body. Barbie has become the accessory instead of being accessorized. I take pleasure in the contrast and contradiction of something mass-produced being transformed into a handmade, wearable piece of art.

These sculptures are a tribute to all women who endure the torture of wearing stilettos. Their sacrifice does not go unnoticed.

This sculpture is handmade from hand picked solid and veneer woods. The height ranges from 17 inches to 24 inches tall.

My wife's own heels are first use for templates to emulate a correct insole contour, then the shaping process begins. From a solid piece of wood the actual sole is carved. After the sole has been carved and sanded smooth carefully selected veneers are applied. Then the straps (band saw blades) were attached. The insole is made of multiple layers of veneer pressed into shape. The colored lacquer is applied to the bottom sole, and multiple coats of clear lacquer are sprayed and buffed.

'The book project Shoe Fleur: A Footwear Fantasy began with a picture of a leaf I had taken for a client,' says Michel. 'The leaf was turned upside down and I remember saying out loud to no one in particular, ‘that leaf looks like a shoe.’ And, after a move here and a twist there, I had created my first shoe fleur, appropriately named La Première.'

After La Première, Michel was hooked. Each morning for a year he went to the flower market at dawn to bring the freshest, most glorious blooms back to the studio. As the months passed, each shoe fleur emerged with a name and a story. “Every accessory became as unique as the flower or plant I used to make it,” says Tcherevkoff. With names such as Callous Lily, Fort Knox and Escargot each visual is a witty cultural quip.

With Diane von Furstenberg writing the Introduction to Shoe Fleur and Ferruccio Ferragamo writing the Preface, a launch evening at the Museum of Arts and Design, gallery exhibitions in New York and Paris, press coverage in magazines ranging from Elle to US Magazine, Michel has just been discovered as an important contemporary artist.

The images of Shoefleur are for sale in a limited signed edition of 25.

The new Roswitha van Rijn collection is produced in limited edition and consist of four new models; two platform designs and two boot designs, made exclusively for the Bijenkorf. As is Roswitha van Rijn’s trademark of working from the material, all the shoes are handmade by a small crafts atelier in Italy using only the best materials. The prices range from € 340,- to € 500,-. The exhibition of Van Rijn’s previous work is displayed till September 30th 2007, but her shoes will remain for sale.

Roswitha van Rijn designs haute couture shoes with a twist: high end fashion combined with a socially conscious philosophy: 'The beauty of the designs is most important, but the shoes have a surplus value: the themes and materials that I use are there to draw people’s attention to see the wondrous beauty of all that we have in our time and of what we can preserve if we treat it respectfully.'

Of this luminous honey that offends the vines
For now all sweet in their fall from the sky
Each ray of moonlight’s a ray of honey
Now hid I conceive the sweetest adventure
I fear stings of fire from this Polar bee
that sets these deceptive rays in my hands
And takes its moon-honey to the rose of the winds

Ophelia (Shakespeare’s Hamlet)
Aside from being one of the greatest poets and theatre’s writers, Shakespeare was also a pioneer of cinema, particularly for its primary root, the screenplay. His “Hamlet” is a clear example of that. We know that the little Ophelia will kill herself in the bed of a creak. As in every kind of performance, being it theatrical, pictorial or cinematographic, she is portrayed well dressed and perfectly make up as if she was going out on a date, not certainly to a rendezvous with Death. There are flowers on her hands and scattered across her clothes. The corpse is settled into water as if someone pitifully wanted to give her a post mortem dignity. The dialogue between the undertakers (the clowns, that in Shakespeare’s theatre bring Death) insinuates the doubt of the presence of a mysterious character, an “hidden2 assassin moving in the neighbourhood of the court or as a scene that has been intentionally cut off to rise up the suspense and the sense of apprehension, as in an Hitchcock or David Lynch’s film. The screenplayer’s job, before that of the director’s is that of catching audiences’ attention through the delicate duties of not giving clues, not explaining and principally not showing. So, the undertakers ask themselves on how weird is to bury a suicidal in consecrated earth and draw the brilliant conclusion “the lady drowned herself for self-defence”. Water is by far the purifier element, it’s the catharsis into which even the blackest assassin can clean his crimes off. In “Psycho”, Norman Bates hides his victim into water, so does the psycopath Jame Gumb in “The silence of the lambs” and in “Twin Peaks” the corpse of Laura Palmer floats in plastic to make her finding possible. The sandal of Ophelia is the one she could be dressing when the corpse free itself from the flesh and skin, and instead of worms and moulds I’d like to imagine flowers, leaves and threads of grass made of beads and slips of PET as natural “product” and consequently, a decoration exhaled by herself.

Margot Mine (Lupin III)
Within the cartoons that accompanied my childhood there is Lupin III. The adventures of the thief gentleman inspired me for the sandal of Margot. Madly in love with her, Lupin tolerates her colossal betrayals, her escapes with the billionaire of the moment, the thefts she commits to her own gang, moreover planned to take revenge on Arsenic. However, all these ungrateful plans at the back of the poor loving end up in farce; Margot can’t make it on her own against the prince of thieves, sided by Daisuke Jigen and Goemon Ishikawa.
In a series of absolutely genial and impossible situations, the poor commissar Kouichi Zenigata is always beaten and mortified, but regardless the cartoon transmits a positive message for there is a rooted good feeling able to reconcile the band at the end of every episode, as in every quarrelsome but united family.
This sandal has handcuffs as sash, but I left one open for she always succeed to set herself free, with the help, obviously, of her friends. The heels are precious stone-studded and the vamp is a string of pearls for they are her passions, strong enough to make her betray anyone who gets between her and jewels, and to make her deal with anyone who promise her richness and why not? A resounding lesson to her eternal beloved/hated Lupin III.

Salomè
In one act of O. Wilde’s tragedy, Salomè, the daughter of Herodiade, the Herod’s wife, agrees to dance for the king when he proposes her anything she could desire. When Salomè finishes dancing for the Judaea’s tetrarch, in a sinuous dialectical crescendo she obtains the preacher man’s head, Iokanaan, guilty of having offended her mother Herodiade but above all, guilty of not having kissed Salomè. Once obtained the head on a silver platter she can finally kiss the one who refused her. After this scene, Herod figured out the monstrosity to whom he has agreed due to the incestuous attraction for Salomè and order to kill the very object of his desire. This sandal is made of velvet and beads bands, the same I presume she was wearing during her furious dance, and by a blade for heel, as the blade of the sword that first cut the preacher man’s head off and secondly hers.

Marilyn Monroe
Marilyn has died. Suicidal.
She is gone to bed wearing some drops of Chanel n.5 and some tubes of barbiturics in her stomach. She maybe killed herself for self-defence as Ophelia or, perhaps, someone killed her and made up a dramatic scene of suffering and inability to resist to the star doom’s pressure. I just know that together with Monna Lisa she is an universal icon, a sort of holy picture, a cyclic representation that I have seen and I will see, as everybody, everywhere. So, she’s never died, and nobody killed her, or, if they did, by killing Marilyn they granted her eternal life. It’s sure that one associates the word “Marilyn” to these random images: Happy Birthday Mr. President, JFK, Andy Warhol, the white pleated skirt that lift up on the grill, suicide, barbiturics and who knows what else. Her heel is the emblem of an unsolved American case: a tube of “Goodnight America”.

Mina Harker
In Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Mina Harker is a quiet English teacher that should marry an employee. Her fiancé goes to Transylvania to meet up with the Earl Dracula for a real estate’s sale. The Earl sees a photograph of the young lady which resembles exactly his beloved dead bride, that killed herself centuries before believing her husband dead in battle. So the Earl decides to move to London to court Mina, she falls into his arms, in a reminiscence’s dance of a love which passed unhurt through the centuries, perhaps with fascinations and disillusions to the final blood catharsis in which she chooses to set her lover free from the curse of “non-dead”, transfixing his hearth and cutting off the head. I’ve therefore realized her sandal with some garlic cloves, famously unpopular for vampires and speakers. The heels are two crucifixes, symbol of the Christ, of Redemption, of Death and his consequent Resurrection aside of the struggle against vampires. In fact, it will be his last “bride” to put the word end on the dark legend of Dracula.

Cleopatra
Researchers interested in her story have recently revealed that the queen might have been murdered. In Shakespeare’s tragedy step, when the clown brings the Nile’s asp to Cleopatra, he advices her about the danger of the snake, for the suicidal plan hasn’t been declared. The clowns tells her to be aware as the demoniac nature of the snake doesn’t make it proud of the food it eats. Even if the history would bright up certain doubts on Cleopatra’s last day of life, the mystery around this woman will never be disclosed. For the collective imaginary she is and always will be associated with seduction and to the asp by which she got herself killed. For it is far more romantic remember her this way. At the same time it would be less interesting to believe that a proud and strong woman like Cleopatra couldn’t be able to even control her date of death which would be decided by others, perhaps the Romans conspiring with the local aristocracy. Her sandal is made of peacock eyes for the symbol of life’s triumph that immortalized death in a hieratic moment. A stylised winged snake, son of the Nile, subdued to the will of who raised it up and gave it hospitality in her land. Land in which most part of treasures are hidden, not just buried, under the sand.

Alice in Wonderland

Lewis Carroll's novel 'Alice in Wonderland'; represents the metaphor from childhood to puberty with its exciting discovers, fears and contrasting emotions. Alice is still a child when she passes through the mirror and enters a fairytale world but that actually hides, although not so well, deception and dangerous realities. During her fantastic journey, Alice will find some characters more appropriate to mental homes, she will eat mushrooms with properties more similar to narcotics than magical, she’ll hear some nonsense speeches worthy the theatre of the absurd and she will risk to be beheaded several times by the hand of a despot and hysterical queen reigning over the fear of her subjects. Following ferocious political satires and happenings far from what the gilded world of childhood should be, the author, best known in his private life for some particular weird interest to children, leaves some clues of perversion and refinement that will be understood only later. Many fairytales of the past used to hide subliminal messages and some 20 years ago cartoons transmitted not much reassuring values: nowadays the situation is not that better; if, in a way, there is more attention not to show death as a spectacle, on the other hand cartoons are nothing but a marketing product treated for supporting the setting of the correlated merchandise, identifying children as very precocious consumer’s target.'Alice's sandal is the one that she could be wearing at the end of the novel, when she says to the Queen of Hearts a just: ';Stop it! Who do you think you are? You’re nothing but the queen of a pack if cards!'; Alice grew up, she is no more scared as now she is self-conscious. She steps on the queen’s card; with its tinged cruelty this story teaches us that life is circular and that it takes a second to switch from losers to winners, from victims to executioners, from the dead to the living.'

Leni Berta Helène Amalie Riefensthal

Two women with different and marked destinies, the same historical period. During a dictatorship time as the Nazi Regime, a woman with the passion for the cinema, Leni Riefensthal, benefits of the largest creative freedom as few directors ever had in any other part of the world and time. Photographer, screenwriter, editor and director, with her 'Olympia' she introduced such innovative techniques and style to make her Berlin’s Olympiad documentary one of the biggest cinematographic models ever. Meanwhile, a Jewish girl, Anne Frank, struggled hard days inside a concentration camp, deprived of every sort of freedom and dignity. A diary, which pages were abruptly interrupted and transmitted as sad news until us. I created two opposite sandals, working with the symbology that comes to my memories for their very opposite stories. Leni’s sandal is made of photographic film and it has got a swastika for heels. The crocked cross is the oriental one, that stands for 'universal peace'. This symbol has been re-interpreted by Nazism that applied to the swastika an inclination of 45 degrees for more aggressiveness. The half a swastika symbolized Nazism’s end but it is also the incapability to achieve worldwide peace; the fact that is positioned under the heels of its major artist it is the recovery’s symbol of intellectual freedom. In Anne’s sandal I realized two transparent plastic heels that contained ash, miserable product of lager’s crematories and two sashes made of beads barbed wire, physical and psychological barrier to the freedom of human being.

Part of the 'Shoes Or No Shoes' collection, a project developed over the course of the past 20 years by a Belgian couple of shoemakers, Pierre Bogaerts and Veerle Swenters. They decided to make a connection between their profession and art by means of collecting the shoes of famous artists. Many of these artists transformed their shoes into an artwork or donated a drawing or a painting involving shoes or feet. The SONS-museum includes a contribution of Arman, Baselitz, Fabre, Kabakov, Kippenberger, Oldenburg, Richter, Wesselman … among many others. The permanent exhibition is located in Kruishoutem - Belgium.

Virtual Shoe Museum : Ankle
Home of the Virtual Show Museum

Please read our Terms and conditions for using this website.

The Virtual Shoe Museum was initiated by Liza Snook in 2004. Once the idea was born, a long search began for designers, photographers and publishers connected to shoes. New friendships developed and our mailbox filled with loads of material on fantastic shoes, art and design on shoes.

And finally, with the help of Taco Zwaanswijk of Interactive Affairs, who designed the site, and Bart van der Ploeg of Resolume, who programmed the database and created the content management system, we're live! And proud! And we're only just beginning...

If you have any questions about the collection, or leads on shoes or designers, please let us know. Also, we're interested in your opinion on the collection and your experiences in the museum. You can contact the Virtual Shoe Museum by mail: Liza@VirtualShoeMuseum.com.

The Virtual Shoe Museum has different 'perspectives' on a shoe or object. These perspectives (designer, focus, colour, material, etc) show related objects and thus ways to navigate the collection.

The left column of the screen contains the main navigation. Each perspective contains several 'rooms'. Each room contains thumbnails of the objects it contains (on the right side of the screen). Choose any to view this object.

On an object's page, below the image, you can view more images, video and text (if available). Above the thumbnails, you find a list showing all the rooms this object belongs to. Here you can wander the rooms and find related objects.
