Our mission was to introduce new customers to our brand by storytelling and highlighting select products. As the sole copywriter on the project, I worked in tandem with the brand manager, company president, and owner to write and edit all of the copy. The result was a visually stunning, engaging and successful catalog that proved its worth in increased holiday sales.

Right: Francis Picabia The world is divided into two categories: failures and unknowns. Dada talks with you, it is everything, it includes everything, it belongs to all religions, can be neither victory nor defeat, it lives in space and not in time. Dada is like your hopes: nothing like your paradise: nothing like your idols: nothing like your heroes: nothing like your artists: nothing like your religions: nothing. <img width="1061" height="1061" width_o="1061" height_o="1061" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/413689f2e7ddf653b86aeb6a66fe4a50254d579a4f181f1ec2e0f8de1ac5d996/vladimir-mayakovsky-1924-rodchenko-1372292421_org2.jpg" data-mid="183111814" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/413689f2e7ddf653b86aeb6a66fe4a50254d579a4f181f1ec2e0f8de1ac5d996/vladimir-mayakovsky-1924-rodchenko-1372292421_org2.jpg" />Vladimir Mayakovsky by&nbsp;Alexander Rodchenko We are not responsible for what we do; we are ignorant of our acts until we accomplish them. One must go through life, be it red or blue, stark naked and accompanied by the music of a subtle fisherman, prepared at all times for a celebration. Nature is unfair? So much the better, inequality is the only bearable thing, the monotony of equality can only lead us to boredom. You are always looking for already-felt emotions, just as you like to get an old pair of trousers back from the cleaners, which seem new when you don't look too closely. Artists are cleaners, don't let yourself be taken in by them. True modern works of art are made not by artists but quite simply by men. https://writerpaulhile.com/Scarlet-Runners Sat, 24 Jun 2023 03:22:52 +0000 Writer Paul Hile https://writerpaulhile.com/Scarlet-Runners PRO—VITAL 02 Scarlet Runners Every page must explode, whether through seriousness, profundity, turbulence, nausea, the new, the eternal, annihilating nonsense, enthusiasm for principles, or the way it is printed.

I capture all these impressions without any hurry to transfer to the canvas. I let them rest in my brain and then, when I’m visited by the spirit of creation, I improvise my paintings just as a musician improvises his music. https://writerpaulhile.com/The-Other-Manifesto Sat, 24 Jun 2023 03:22:53 +0000 Writer Paul Hile https://writerpaulhile.com/The-Other-Manifesto PRO—VITAL 03 The Other Manifesto <img width="1849" height="1858" width_o="1849" height_o="1858" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f0d3c973613f2f9476ef0991cbd2c5127cbe93da71b891abf4f6f4060aabc824/1eAuZAzu0z8JV40mAwBWQmw.png" data-mid="183111823" border="0" data-scale="83" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f0d3c973613f2f9476ef0991cbd2c5127cbe93da71b891abf4f6f4060aabc824/1eAuZAzu0z8JV40mAwBWQmw.png" /> Bauhaus 1979–1983Compilation album by Bauhaus <img width="3018" height="4818" width_o="3018" height_o="4818" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/17cf7a66912ed6232b6d8cca1230569e70bbc9c6bebbad9f007cca52612fe003/0095077d4da36923a682118b06da73e1.jpg" data-mid="183111824" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/17cf7a66912ed6232b6d8cca1230569e70bbc9c6bebbad9f007cca52612fe003/0095077d4da36923a682118b06da73e1.jpg" /> Knowledge is ancient error reflecting on its youth.

Are you sure? Positively sure, the facts are revealed by grotesque mouths. They think that Dada can prevent them from practicing this odious trade: Selling art expensively. Art costs more than sausages, more than women, more than everything. Art is visible like God (see Saint-Sulpice). Art is a pharmaceutical product for imbeciles. The table turns thanks to spirit; the paintings and other works of arts are like strong-box tables, the spirit is inside and becomes more and more inspired according to the auction prices. Farce, farce, farce, farce, farce, my dear friends. https://writerpaulhile.com/Menu Sat, 24 Jun 2023 03:22:54 +0000 Writer Paul Hile https://writerpaulhile.com/Menu Author Paul Hile&nbsp;father∙writer∙putzer Contents&nbsp;· Publications· Newsletter· Follow · Contact PAUL HILE Paul Hile is a Michigan-based writer and speaker.
