At Sleek We’re not ones to wait around for good people to come to us. Instead we search them out – and that’s why, starting the the next issue of the magazine, publishing at the end of May 2013, we begin an adventurous new collaboration with Mercedes-Benz which sees a writer and photographer team (Grashina Gabelmann and Maxime Ballesteros) embarking on a series of road trips to quiz creatives in fashion and art about what makes them tick and explore some key cultural themes of the day.
Last week the the team (with glamourous support from Don’t Shoot the Messengers’ Jen Gilpin) set off in the direction of Kreuzberg to meet and interview the noted creative director and Berlin mainstay Dirk Bonn, with a plan to hit the highway later that day in a Mercedes-Benz CLS 500 in the direction of Hamburg, with the final destination of Copenhagen.
Find the full report in the next issue of Sleek but in the meantime, watch this space for further updates of who the team meet and what theuy discovered at on www.sleek-mag.com, our Facebook and @SleekMag on Twitter.
