Ian Berry on Stridewise on Youtube
It was great to have Nick English of Stridewise come and visit Ian Berry in his London studio.
They spoke of all kinds of things connected to Ian Berry’s work and especially his medium, denim. Nick ends the interview by saying ‘It’s my favourite thing I’ve done in England,’ so have a watch at the enjoyable conversation.
The Manhattan-based journalist with reporting experience on four continents, published in Vice, Men's Health, Popular Science, and a bunch of other places visited London from his Brooklyn base. He’s a ravenous consumer of anything and everything related to high end men's boots.
Stridewise with its large YouTube following is where he nurtured a maniacal obsession especially with footwear but also what goes with it, like raw denim! He shares his findings on his numerous channels and you should have a look.
While in London he also visited @blackhorselane and @denimhistory and you can see all on the YouTube channel Stridewise

Ian Berry Opens Material World at the Swedish Textile Museum - Textil Museet
Ian Berry returned to Sweden, the country he lived for 5 years to open the solo exhibition Material World at Textil Museet in Borås Sweden - the National Museum of Textiles and the Nordic region’s leading museum on the subject. Ian Berry’s specific medium is denim and the famous industrial city also has a textile and denim heritage.
Textil Museet shows some of Berry’s most well-known pieces never seen in Sweden before -large (denim) ‘canvases’, made with layers of recycled jeans, creating photorealistic yet often melancholy scenes out of the indigo fabric.
To celebrate showing a large collection of his works at Textil Museet Ian Berry has collaborated with Dutch fashion designer Jonathan Christopher to create garments inspired by his most notable bodies of work; Behind Closed Doors, Hotel California and the Secret Garden installation, that will debut at the museum.

The Secret Garden installation touches on subjects such as sustainability and the environment, showing this material made from plants turning back into plants, with hanging wisteria, flowers and vines falling from the institution’s ceiling. Sustainability is also at the core of Ian Berry’s friend Lill O.Sjöberg’s innovation. Making denim wood, Twood, is the Swedish designer’s latest innovation and the pair have come together to make some special pieces to exhibit to compliment Ian Berry’s archive of work - visitors can view a guitar and drum kit, made of only TWOOD!

Ian Berry Needs You!
Ian Berry is asking, who is your favourite Denim Legend?
Ian Berry with the Denim Legends temporary installation at Material World, Textil Museet
It could be from the cowboy actors, 50’s rebels, the punks of the 70’s to the influencers of today. Who inspired your denim looks or who do you feel had the biggest impact on denim? Over the last year he has been asking this question, and using his wealth of knowledge from working with the material over the last 15 years has already created dozens of portraits from Brooke Shields to Bardot, Marley to Moss, McQueen to the material girl living in her material world -Madonna. As he creates one of his largest works he wants the audience to help shape it. It may even mean some of the portraits already made will get rejected so the piece will form the greatest influences from Pop Culture, making the Denim Legends.
These portraits are exhibited in an area where visitors can submit their choices and the portraits will grow over the exhibition - you can play a part in shaping it!

“Ian Berry’s work is interesting and important on so many levels. There’s the ‘wow’ factor of the craft, the thematics, and the way in which his art shows how the textile material forms yet another dimension in art”,
Malena Karlsson, Curator at the Textile Museum of Sweden, says.
Ian Berry appeared on the ‘30 Under 30’ list of the most influential artists in the world, has exhibited his work in both the USA and Europe, and is considered to be one of the 50 most influential people connected to the Jeans Industry. The Textile Museum of Sweden is happy to announce that the work of the artist known for his work with only denim jeans, Ian Berry will be exhibited at the Textile Museum of Sweden this autumn!
It’s not a photograph, it's jeans!
At first sight, it is easy to mistake Berry’s work for blue- or indigo-tinted photographs, but a closer look reveals that they are made up of layer upon layer of denim in different shades. The contrasts between the different shades of blue visible in a pile of old jeans were the genesis of Berry’s unique art form. Soon, he began to explore the possibilities offered by the material and create photorealistic artworks. Berry only uses upcycled denim in his works. No colouring agents or bleach are used – only scissors, glue, and second-hand jeans.
When working with denim he began to understand the significance of his own and others’ relationship with the material, which is one that we are all very familiar with. Ian is of the opinion that the fact that that denim is highly recognisable opens doors to understanding and identification. His works reflect on contemporary events and phenomena but also refer back to the cultural history of jeans.

‘30 Under 30’ most influential artists in the world
Ian quickly became one of the most talked-about young artists, Art Business News listed him as one of the most influential artists in the world by including him in their ‘30 Under 30’ list in 2013 and In 2019, he was recognised by the denim magazine Rivet as one of the 50 most influential people in the denim industry.
Berry was born and raised in Huddersfield, England, which like Borås has a long-standing textile tradition. Ten years ago Ian moved to Sweden and exhibited his art at galleries in Skåne and Motala. Since then his art has been exhibited all over the world, most recently at Museum Rijswijk in the Netherlands and in Genoa, the Italian city that leant its name to this favourite garment, jeans. The Textile Museum of Sweden is the first Swedish museum to exhibit a large, in-depth exhibition of Ian Berry’s works.

The goal is to produce material prototypes and evaluate the material specifications in order to target usability for the next step. With the material she has been able to make items that range from tables to a beautiful denim Twood guitar.
Genoa | Genova | Garibaldi in Jeans by Ian Berry
Ian Berry has been delving into the history of denim, in fact, so far back it can be said the history before jeans. While Jacob Davis’s rivet may have helped Levi Strauss develop what we now know as the modern jean, few know why one of the most loved garments on the planet are called; Jeans.
Back in the 15th century, shipbuilders and merchants in the Italian city of Genoa used a cheap, coarse and strong, cross weaved type of cotton to make sails and protect their goods. This kind of fabric was produced in the French city of Nimes, (where Ian Berry visited in 2018) resulting in the name ‘denim’ from Serge de Nim, and used in combination with moleskin. In the Internationally important port city of Genoa, similar textiles were dyed blue by indigo traded with India. Their use extended to work clothes, and they were exported under the French name ‘bleu de Gênes’ that became blue jeans when once again translated to English.

Cristiano Palozzi with Ian Berry
‘When I ask people where the names come from I, and I’ll admit few seem to know already, tell them it comes from England as it is the words we called them as, and I quote from back then, ‘they didn’t want a French sounding cloth’. Ian Berry joked.
Ian Berry was commissioned to make a piece of a man connected to the city, an icon of his day and internationally renowned; Giuseppe Garibaldi, often noted as the most popular and famed Italian ever. Berry has been talking to the city for several years and then the Municipal’s Manuela Arata, who visited his London studio.
Back in 2017 plans were being formed to do an event in Genoa, and Ian Berry was working with Cristiano Palozzi toward this goal. But then horror struck, on 14th August 2018, the Morandi motorway bridge in Genoa, Italy, collapsed during a torrential rainstorm killing 43 people and shocking a stunned city and the world. Obviously the city was reeling and the project was sidelined.
‘I was in Nimes at the time so very invested in both of the cities and in my heart. The bridge tragedy was awful but only made my commitment to Genoa greater.’
Ian Berry’s Garibaldi in Jeans, (denim on denim, 106 x 77 x 6 cm) is placed at the Museo del Risorgimento. The museum was the birthplace of Giuseppe Mazzini whose efforts, like that of Garibaldi, helped bring about the independent and unified Italy.
It is based on the painting by Gerolamo Induno’s GARIBALDI A MARSALA (11 May 1860), oil on canvas, 1861, in the Museo Nazionale del Risorgimento Italiano in Turin, who supported this portrait. In the painting, like other iconographic testimonies dedicated to Garibaldi and the Red Shirts, including those in the Museo del Risorgimento in Genoa, the protagonist wears trousers made of the typical blue fabric, whose Genoese origins are recognised.

When uniting Italy the garment he wore resembled what would now be known as jeans.
About Garibaldi
Giuseppe Garibaldi 4 July 1807 in Nice – 2 June 1882 on Caprera; Jousé or Josep in Niçard, Gioxeppe Gaibado in Ligurian) was an Italian general, politician and nationalist who played a large role in the history of Italy. He is considered one of the greatest generals of modern times and one of Italy's "fathers of the fatherland" along with Camillo Benso, Count of Cavour, Victor Emmanuel II of Italy and Giuseppe Mazzini.
While large volume books can be wrote about this Hero of the Two World’s, his connection with jeans is what we are here to look at. The famously dressed leader had an iconic look, seen in many paintings. A Times correspondent wrote from the south of Italy on September 13 1860 when Garibaldi was busy uniting the country, “I had my first interview with the disinterested and brave liberator of Italy in his red shirt, a dirty pair of jean trousers and worn out boots. Combing his long, thin hair at the glass stood the greatest patriot since Washington”.
The celebrity was much loved in England, the home country of the artist. There are strong links between the Ligurian City and England, one being the shared Red Cross flag of St George. It was also big trading route and link between transferring the fabric, garment and the look to England and to America. The British Press loved him. Ian Berry added;
He went to London and out to Bedford and many people wanted to meet him but I loved a story of when he went to Tyneside from America. Crowds greeted him. He was a hero. A symbol. What was he going there for? To get coal. This is where my paternal family is from for generations and what were they? Coal miners.

It must be remembered that this patriot was originally a Ligurian sea captain who dressed, as his colleagues did, in trousers made of the tough blue cloth named “blu de Gene”, blue of Genoa, thus the appellation, blue jeans. While we all wear jeans today and may not find it surprising, it was another 100 years before Levi Strauss got a patent for adding a rivet with Jacob Davis to indigo dyed work overalls and helped create what we now know as jeans, with the style and material forming differences, but the name, remained.
Ian Berry at Museo del Risorgimento with the work in denim of Garibaldi.
Ian Berry’s portrait of Garibaldi was unveiled during a new event initiated by the Genova Municipality called Genova Jeans that celebrates the history of the city with denim and jeans as well as looking toward the future with talks and presentations on sustainability.
Stores in the city turned their windows blue with denim, interactive display panels showed the history of denim and historical figures and videos, including that of Ian Berry were shown. The northern Italian region is famed for their denim production, especially that of the 80’s and 90’s. Brands like Diesel showed their archives and denim mill Candiani showed an immersive display of issues with denim as well as some solutions.
Berry’s highlight was seeing the Passion Canvases, painted with indigo and white lead. The collection is made of fourteen canvases, and dates back from 1538 to late XVIIth century. They were inspired by Albrecht Durer’s engravings portraying the Little Passion. The canvases were purchased in 2001 by the Italian State and they belong to the Fabrics Collection of the Archaeological Authority of Liguria, which placed them temporarily in the Museum for now.
According to recent studies, these canvases represented the “sepulcrum” or Altar of Repos, an ephemeral setup for Holy Week. Probably they were placed inside the church to create a small chapel for the devotees.
Curator, Paolo Martini at the Museo Diocesano gave Ian Berry a private tour.
‘For many years now I have been wanting to see these and they were so much more powerful and emotional to see in real life. To have so much time and description given by Anna it was a perfect experience. It’s something that many people should see and appreciate.’

About Museum of Risorgimento | Museo del Risorgimento
The Museum traces the historical events that led to the unification of Italy, from the Genoese anti-Austrian revolt in 1746 to the inauguration of the Monument to the Thousand of Quarto in 1915.
Inaugurated on 5 May 1915 in Palazzo Bianco, it has since 1934 been located in the birthplace of Giuseppe Mazzini. It preserves and exhibits a rich historical and artistic heritage through which the symbolic figures of Risorgimento are brought to life: Giuseppe Mazzini and the republican and democratic movement; Giuseppe Garibaldi and the Red Shirts; Goffredo Mameli and the Italian Anthem (which Ian Berry heard a little too much this summer!).
The substantial historical, artistic and documentary heritage preserved in the institute was created through donations and purchases as early as the nineteenth century. Paintings, prints, posters, sculptures, documents, photographs, uniforms, weapons, flags and relics cover a time span that goes beyond the strict chronology of the Risorgimento, and includes items from the 18th century to the Second World War and the Liberation.
Ian Berry with Museo del Risorgimento Genova Curator, Raffaella Ponte.
Among the most significant works of the nineteenth century are the portraits of Goffredo Mameli by Domenico Induno, Giuseppe Mazzini by Emilie Ashurst and Gacinto Gallino’s own Giuseppe Garibaldi. Peter Tetar Van Elven, the famed Dutch painter’s faithful depiction of the departure of the Thousand from the rock of Quarto, which is flanked by the works of Plinio Nomellini created for the inauguration of the Monument to the Thousand (May 5, 1915), and the sketch by the sculptor Eugenio Baroni, winner of the national competition.
The museum hosts highly evocative objects including the Red Shirts and the precious Flag of the Thousand in silk (1860) as well as Mazzini's guitar, always with him in his long London exile, which is still played today on special occasions.
Among the documents, a prominent place belongs to the first autographed draft of the Canto degli Italiani by Goffredo Mameli (1847) and to the Act of Surrender of the German troops signed in Genoa on 25 April 1945. Ian added;
It is a great honour to first portray one of the most famous Italians, as well as at the time, one of the world’s most famous men - named the Hero of the two World’s amongst many of the artefacts of such an important period. Someone who understood leadership as well as communication. He was one of the first ‘celebrities’ and icons of the 19th Century but he achieved it by his efforts of being an audacious leader as well as creating a romantic image that would last. He wore what came to be known as ‘Communication style’ and while the red shirt and sometimes poncho became an icon, it’s the trousers he wore that lead this piece. I believe in Genoa’s jeans past, and not only the connection to the word. Growing up in the 90’s I always thought of Italy when thinking of jeans, and I want to help to celebrate the region. I love telling others little tidbits of stories connected to denim and I’m often surprised when they don’t know where the word jeans come from. Let’s get everyone to know!'
360° of Ian Berry's London Studio
Welcome in to the hidden world of Ian Berry - in full 360° of indigo blue. Filmed in his London studio it follows Ian Berry around as he speaks to Kasper Daugaard of SYS Visual in some of the different sections of his atelier. Please use the guide in the top left hand corner to see in all the different directions as you move around.
Ian says ‘The technology has really advanced and I was really impressed with the guys at SYS Visual with what they could achieve. I think the added interview part gives it another element as I always wanted to show more people around the studio but never really knew how. This is the closest thing to being here yet’
This is the first episode as we take a tour into Ian’s world at his East London base. Whenever people visit the studio they are always amazed by the ‘organised mess’ and to see so many shades of denim jeans all in a palette and arranged by shades. There’s denim hanging on the walls and his tools of his trade with all kinds of store rooms leading off from the main studio room.
‘I’ve never been able to really show online what the studio is like and, like my work, seems only good in real life. People’s reaction as they walk in are always something quite special. I’ve had great photographers in and it shows a section, but as the ceiling is low at the front (only 2 meters) it always looks a bit strange. It never really shows the large size of it and all the areas - and always looks a mess! With this it really shows the feeling of the studio and where I work.’ Ian added.
SYS Visual came in and filmed over a morning and then stitched it together in the edit room and in this episode you see Ian Berry’s working area, they filmed throughout his home (above the studio) and where he lives at the Limehouse Cut canal area of East London. Watch out for further episodes where you see his own art collection, and even in his kitchen and living room of this amazing factory conversation in the old Spratts Factory that survived the war. Ian overlooks the oldest canal in London, the Limehouse Cut were you can see barges going up and down as well as swans and all kinds of wildlife.
Spratts made pet food and the factory at one point was the largest dog food factory in the world. Built in the late 19th Century with beautiful red bricks and having the original writing still on the building. It was the first live work building in London and has been home to the likes of the Queen's tapestry restorer Ksynia Marko, Roger Law of Spitting Image, sculptor Michael Green and ceramicist Elizabeth Fritsch along with many other creatives. With Ian Berry and many notable others now, it carries on the tradition of being an artists building.
Another interesting fact also shows there was a dog-show department, possibly owing to James Spratt's initial 14-year-old assistant, the future dog show founder Charles Cruft. During the war they made dog biscuits for the soldiers on the front line.
After the imposition of purchase tax on pet food in 1969, the factory closed down, left derelict for many years.

Ian Berry with Kelly Harrington at the event
For one time only, Ian allowed some of the individual albums from the Record Store to be sold off in aid for the charity as well as the Limited Edition bottles.
The night was capped off by a special performance by Newton Faulkner.
Newton needs little introduction. The English singer-songwriter and musician known for his percussive style of guitar playing In 2007 his debut studio album Hand Built by Robots was certified double platinum in the United Kingdom. The album topped the UK Albums Chart in August 2007. From that album he played "Dream Catch Me" as well as rounded off with Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen.
Ian Said ‘Having Newton perform was extra special, as in 2007 and ‘08 he was the soundtrack to my summers when I lived in Australia. I was working with denim when I left for Australia but it was there I decided to not do ‘the day job’ and concentrate on my art. So it has great memories. I loved that everyone got involved and enjoyed the night and took part with him singing.’
Ian presenting Newton Faulkner to the crowd
The event capped off a successful month for the artist after a sell out show and one that was named a ‘Must See’ by the Londonist and ‘Top seven show in London in July’ by Fad magazine' and filmed for BBC. Follow for more stories for what is coming in a very exciting 2019 for Ian Berry.
