Kris van Assche first met Genevan gallerist Barbara Polla when she approached him backstage after his second runway show for his eponymous label. She’s since done him the ultimate honor of writing a book about him, Amor y Muerte (“I’m still not entirely at ease with the whole thing,” he says), and recently the two have collaborated on the launch of Londerzeel, a curated art zine that sets out to explore van Assche’s influences and creative impulses outside of fashion. The Dior Homme designer is also currently exhibiting art work at Galerie, Nuke, Paris.
