ETERNAL REVERENCE

Eiko Ishioka

Died Saturday, January 23, 2012 in Tokyo

She not only created stage and video costumes for the likes of Grace Jones and Björk, she did costumes for Jennifer Lopez’s film The Cell, Bram Stoker’s Dracula, The Fall, Immortals, the upcoming Mirror Mirror with Julia Roberts, Closet Land, and for Cirque de Soleil’s Varekai show.

She art directed the album cover for Miles Davis’ “Tutu”, Paul Schader’s film Mishima, as well as an infamous ad campaign for the Japanese department store, Parco.

MAJOR, MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN DESIGN. May she rest in peace.
