The Art of shoes
December 8, 2008
November 6th, 2008
Mark Schwartz made a name for himself as an accomplished shoe designer. For the past 25 years, he has traveled the world gaining inspiration for his ideas from artists like Andy Warhol, who Schwartz beneficially watched at work and Roger Vivier who he cultivated his talents with for 5 years. Both Warhol and Vivier encouraged Schwartz to continue his capricious approach to fabricate his artistic style of shoes. He is producing exciting work by taking advantage of the spontaneity and movement that shoes can create when drawn on paper.
Very few artists have attempted what Schwartz is pioneering. Mark exaggerates the usual way individuals view shoes by playing off the already artistic shapes of footwear and creates art that exudes personality. The artist’s work is collected worldwide by both private and corporate clients.
Schwartz has always been fascinated by the shoe , the shape the movement, shoes create a mood all of their own, they scream sex , they are whimsical and take on another life in his paintings.
This website is intended for purchasing paintings by Mark Schwartz. All paintings are one of a kind. Please visit our blog spot as well. www.highheeledart.blogspot.com

gil carvalho’s shoes are at gregory’s, dallas
December 7, 2008
August 20th, 2008
we interviewed shoe designer Gil Carvalho — listen to the way HE says it — about some of his favorite shoe styles for fall 2008. the side note to our fun little video is that Gil is a real GEM and i don’t know if it translates on video.
we arrived into his busy showroom in vegas and gave him a few minutes to freshen-up before the camera started rolling. he emerged from his make-shift parlor with sky-high, cherry red belted square-toe heels, the kind he’s becoming famous for. teeter-free he made a bee-line right over to our spot and gave us a genuine, shoe-centric interview. thanks gil.
we found the dynamite “shadow” patent platform pump at gregory’s shoes in dallas. if you’ve not heard of gregory’s, they carry styles from top shoe designers: christian dior, helmut lang, lanvin, jerome rousseau, luciano padovan and jimmy choo to name but a select few. and if you want your own “shadow” we say get them in a hurry.
