Eternity in a Ruffle: Fashion in Art, Art in Fashion

Tuesday, December 13th, 2011
January 19, 2012toMarch 15, 2012
Ranging from Leigh Bowery to Lady Gaga (not much of a stretch), with stops for Audrey Hepburn, the avant-garde, and Schiaparelli along the way, the first four sessions, taught by Jessica Burstein, will engage the history of modern fashion and the ideas it engenders and engages. Lectures will take up issues such as why artists and philosophers ranging from Oscar Wilde to Walter Benjamin have repeatedly deemed fashion so important, eternally au courant; fashion in film, photography, and literature; and examples of sartorial fashion from the Henry Art Gallery Costume collection, as well as archival instances of fashion magazines for women. The focus will be on clothing’s consumption (as opposed to its production), particularly clothing for women, with a slight bias toward couture–but threaded throughout is the fact that fashion is both a verb and a noun, and can capture the notion of style generally.
