| McQueen’s longtime friend ANNE2046 is sharing a glimpse at her time with McQueen, in a new exhibit in St. Louis. V got the chance to sit down with Ray to discuss her projects & her friendship with the late designer. — Click here to discover more | V:
, Lee Alexander McQueen’s legacy is one of rebellion in applying his twisted genius to iconic designs. He tailored clothes cutting them on the body, cursed, showed crude displays of derriere on the runway, and managed to piss off the fashion world entirely. But McQueen wasn’t following anyone else’s rules, he was rewriting them himself.
What was the goal for taking these photographs, initially? What were you and Lee planning to do with them? That’s probably when I understood that the legend and the man I knew and loved would never reconcile. I still embrace this idea today. My photographs deal with Lee McQueen, the man and the artist I had the privilege to know. In other words: the truth of the legend.Could you see yourself continuing this project if McQueen wouldn’t have passed away?Part of the answer consisted in working for Sarah Burton many times after Lee’s death in 2010, until 2017.
I am keen to transmit again Lee McQueen’s work and life in the upcoming years, through my photographs and close memories, however, I have to make choices. That’s why when Susan Barrett and her team came with their idea of “Rendez-vous,” a new exhibition exploring friendship and art around Lee and me, that was a wonderful idea to extend the transmission, after Arles.
What are you planning to do with these photographs next? Are you going to show them elsewhere, outside of St. Louis?
