Embark on a Surreal Journey: Living Sculptures, Paintings, Short Films and Captivating Installations by French-Canadian Artist—Lou Rie.
HUNTER S. THOMPSON
He started what he called “gonzo journalism,” a subjective style with first-person narrative, including personal experiences that become a part of the story. In books like Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, he became a counterculture hero. He committed suicide at the age of 67.
AUDREY HEPBURN
Her first major film role in the 1953 romance “Roman Holiday,” with Gregory Peck, made her a star. She had a naturally regal air with a hint of mischief that captivated audiences. Before her death at 63 in 1993, she was a special ambassador for Unicef, advocating for children’s rights.

KANYE WEST
Diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2016, the best-selling rapper-turned-fashion designer has made all sorts of news. He embraced Trump in 2020 and then joined the race himself, winning some 60,000 votes. His new album, Donda, has won mixed reviews, but his clothing label, Yeezy, is a hit.
DARTH VADER
Does the suit make the man or the man make the suit? For the feared Sith Lord of Star Wars fame, it was definitely the former. His great powers, along with his air-compressor breathing and imposing baritone, were all thanks to the suit. Beneath it was a horribly mutilated man with charred skin and lungs.
IGGY POP
Iggy has been the epitome of rock & roll terror. Known as the Godfather of Punk with his band the Stooges, he invented the stage dive and put the “X” in excess. His many collaborators include David Bowie, who produced two Iggy albums, The Idiot and Lust for Life. He’s now living clean and still making music.
TINTIN
The main character of one of the most popular European comics of the 20th century, Tintin is a boy reporter who travels the world uncovering plots and righting wrongs. Created in 1929 by Belgian artist Hergé, he has a forelock that looks like a mini-Mohawk and always has his dog, Snowy, by his side.
KIM KARDASHIAN
Kim doesn’t sing, dance, or act, but has turned herself into one of the most famous personalities on Earth. Between her family reality-TV series, lifestyle empire and social-media sponsorships (she has 215 million Instagram followers), the New York Times once described her as the “Kardashian industrial complex.”
DAVID LYNCH
His Twin Peaks, a 1990 TV series, changed the medium forever. He followed it with The Elephant Man, Blue Velvet and Wild at Heart, to name a few. Sound design is critical to Lynch. “I think that wind sound came from northern Scotland,” he said. “It’s a wind that just feels so good to me.”
