Numéro 237

In this Numéro 237: a meeting with the young actress Hunter Schafer, star of the series Euphoria, soon to appear in the next Hunger Games, at the heart of a fashion series by Harley Weir; an exclusive interview with Björk, an avant-garde artist who released her tenth opus a few months ago; a conversation between Jean Paul Gaultier and Haider Ackermann, a designer who has been invited to revisit the legacy of the great French couturier in a masterful, poetic-filled collection.

Also, a portrait of Hamza, a Belgian rap star who is releasing his new studio album; a panorama of the best series of the moment, from Tulsa King to Succession; Bob Colacello, a New York photographer and close friend of Andy Warhol, exhibited in Paris; haute couture as seen by Jean-Baptiste Mondino and Babeth Djian; and the fashion series of Bruno + Nico Van Mossevelde, Szilveszter Makó, Yulia Gorbachenko, Rory van Millingen, Boris Camaca and Julien Vallon.

In a world where everything must be controlled, measured and rationalised, passion unsettles: it escapes control and refuses compromise. Also in this issue: Victoria Luengo, who brought two films to this year's Cannes Film Festival, Pedro Almodóvar's Autofiction and Rodrigo Sorogoyen's L'Être aimé; Leïla Bekhti, whose work relentlessly explores identity and female emancipation, and who has turned her red-carpet appearances into a powerful statement; Eartheater, unveiling a seventh album of experimental electroacoustic pop; La Vie d'une femme, starring Léa Drucker and Mélanie Thierry; Arthur Harari's L'Inconnue, in competition at Cannes with Léa Seydoux and Niels Schneider.

By a swimming pool in Los Angeles, Taylor Russell opens up with fire and daring in this issue. Also in this issue: Pedro Almodóvar, who has just presented Autofiction in Cannes, a dive into the workings of his mind and a creative process he describes as an inner ocean of emotions; Alewya, the London-based singer, songwriter and producer releasing her debut album this summer; Iliona, at 25 one of the brightest stars of the French-speaking scene; Charlotte Cardin, named female artist of the year.
