Fashioning the Grotesque Body
Presented by Francesca Granata, Assistant Professor of Fashion Studies, School of Art and Design History and Theory, Parsons The New School for Design
Grotesque images of the body proliferate in fashion at the turn of the twenty-first century. Looking at the link between art and fashion through the work of experimental designer Rei Kawakubo of Comme des Garçons , the designer and performance artist Leigh Bowery and others, Francesca Granata provides an insider’s look behind the explosion of grotesque imagery within fashion from this period.
