Still existing on another plane.

Over 1 year after the intial Hurricane album release, Grace Jones releases the 3rd single: “Love You To Life” (live performance below).  The video – apparently influenced by her live performance of the song during the tour – has been co-directed by Why Not Associates and light artist Chris Levine, and is another outstanding piece of visual art which follows on nicely from the disturbingly warped Corporate Cannibal.

The collaboration between Grace Jones and Chris Levine went further with an exhibition titled “Stillness at the Speed of Light”, held at The Vinyl Factory in London.  A hallucinating collection of footage from the Love You To Life video has also been created (view here),  and for the first time, the Hurricane album has been pressed onto vinyl in a limited edition package available for £300.  I’m open to receiving this as a gift.
