#Repost @gucci with @make_repost ・・・ Photographer @derekridgers is hopeful that when the crisis subsides “we’ll all have learnt to appreciate life’s small pleasures a great deal more.” He is spending his time at home reviewing his past work. “At times like this, one’s thoughts go back to what life was like before and I’ve been spending this time going through my photographic archive.” His images are scenes from another time, of young love. He shares his work for creativity, kindness and solidarity for the #GucciCommunity.

#Repost @gucci with @make_repost ・・・ Photographer and director @_glen_luchford reflects on ‘The Fighting Temeraire’, an artwork by Joseph Mallord William Turner which resonates with him in this time, which he shares with the #GucciCommunity. “As a teenager I visited The National Gallery, and became transfixed by this painting. It has a real heart shattering sadness to it. It’s not my favourite painting. But it’s so profound, that whenever we go through a crisis it reappears in my dreams, full of Freudian meaning. No one painting, film, or piece of literature ever captured so perfectly the transition from aged beauty to the banality of modern life, for me. When Covid-19 first took hold I found myself dreaming of the old ship. Back to haunt me in my dreams. But as the days have passed I’ve started to see her in a new light. The transition from old to new suddenly seems inspiring. Our lives have spun so far out of control, that the simplification of sitting at home with family, staring at a painting, reading a book, playing games, re-learning the art of conversation is something to be cherished. And from that will emerge great art and creativity. Some of us won’t recover, others will experience poverty and hard times, but all of us will have learnt something valuable, and personally I’m feeling excited about the possibilities. I’m ready for the new ship, or maybe to go back to the old one.” #AlessandroMichele @alessandro_michele  The #GucciCommunity stands behind aiding those most vulnerable in this crisis, join by donating now to the @unfoundation’s #COVID19 Solidarity Response Fund in support of the World Health Organization @who, and locally with @intesasanpaolo's #ForFunding campaign which supports the Italian Civil Protection Department  #DipartimentoProtezioneCivile. ‘The Fighting Temeraire’, 1839 (oil on canvas), Joseph Mallord William Turner / National Gallery, London, UK /  Photo © copyright Bridgeman Images https://www.instagram.com/p/B_K_Ptrle2P/?igshid=k8crig8uiwxc

#Repost @gucci with @make_repost ・・・ An intimate moment of togetherness between mother and child, @sokothecat is pictured with her son at home. “It’s time to slow down and cherish your loved ones. It’s time to build forts out of sheets and pillows and reclaim your inner child. It’s time to create a magical place to feel safe and let your imagination go wild and free. It’s time to sing books instead of reading them. But mostly, it’s time to be kind to yourself.” Kindness, creativity and closeness—even for those who are physically apart—is a message from the talents and artists for the #GucciCommunity. SoKo also curated a playlist ‘In the Gucci Store by SoKo’ where rock and punk mix with romantic folk, quirky throwback tracks and iconic anthems from the past six decades—listen to it through link in bio. #AlessandroMichele @alessandro_michele The #GucciCommunity stands behind aiding those most vulnerable in this crisis, join by donating now to the @unfoundation’s #COVID19 Solidarity Response Fund in support of the World Health Organization @who, and locally with @intesasanpaolo's #ForFunding campaign which supports the Italian Civil Protection Department #DipartimentoProtezioneCivile. https://www.instagram.com/p/B_K_Gr3FuO4/?igshid=fza99z10j9tw

However, I am imagining it as different, even better maybe. Essentially, I feel very different,” @alessandro_michele is pictured at his home in Rome with his two Boston terriers Bosco and Orso, where he is spending the time between working, reading poetry and re-reading the novel ‘The Magic Mountain’ by Thomas Mann, “it’s an incredible novel, where this apparently still time is told in a sublime way,” then knitting and learning to play the guitar.
