Their skills like collage, whereby one Kyle Montgomery redefines the visual contents of a polaroid with a blade and UHU. Other skills include painting between the lines. If you're expecting works which muse over the 18 hour flight to Paris, baguette about it.

In PARIS, a charming French bakery is a site of casual, everyday racism.
The American media only invented "the teenager" as recently as the '50s. Yet those melodramatic, erratic, sexy sexy young thangs have come to TOTALLY take over the world, gripping the global marketplace tighter than Britney's fist on a Chihuahua-laden fluffy pink handbag. OMG!!

Anthologies work because they’re so soothing for those with short attention spans. If you don’t like one chunk? Wait a few minutes, and you’ll be watching something else. ‘Paris, je t'aime’ has no less than 18 short films by arthouse directors from around the world, including Gus Van Sant, Tom Twyker, the Coen Brothers, Olivier Assayas, and more.
