Paolo Pellegrin gave fashion magazine NOWNESS this brief interview.

Pellegrin, “My working outfit is very casual: jeans, a shirt, documentary photographer shoes and a jacket. When we meet in these godforsaken places, we all look alike with our Timberlands, our scarves and jackets with lots of pockets.”

I guess I’m laughing because the question reminds me of Peter Kay’s “What yer wearin’ on the plane?” (Youtube clip at 6:32)

Pellegrin also describes fashion as “important aspect of man”, loves Tarkovsky, wants to be a Replicant and nevers fails to close his trips with an airport coffee.

ON THE ‘TO DO LIST’

I am going to contact Pellegrin and ask about Guantanamo. I think we need to be discussing Guantanamo again … and we should also be talking more about the US “Black Site” prisons, beginning with Bagram in Afghanistan. More to come.
