Today, design houses are thinking beyond traditional methods of display to stimulate interest in their collections, such as to the internet, fashion film and, more recently, fashion installations. This book offers a critical evaluation of the changing ways in which fashion has been exhibited, focusing specifically on the recent turn toward installation, whether in the form of static presentations, interactive performances or the more conventional curated designer exhibition. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eConnecting viewers - and consumers - on an immersive level, the fashion world has begun to appropriate installation methods traditionally associated with displays of experimental art, transcending the runway system and its constraints. This book turns to the designers who have pioneered fashion installations, such as Aitor Throup, Muccia Prada, Walter Van Beirendonck and Hussein Chalayan among others, and also looks back to the early influential fashion displays by designers such as Worth and Poiret to provide historical context. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDivided into three parts, and covering a variety of installations from Vivienne Westwood's fashioned 'concept' stores to Gareth Pugh's immersive films, this ground-breaking book positions the designer as the curator and exhibition-maker and offers the first focused study of the pertinent concept of fashion installation.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAdam Geczy\u003c\/b\u003e is an artist and writer, and teaches at Sydney College of the Arts, the University of Sydney, Australia. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eVicki Karaminas\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Fashion and Director of Doctoral Studies in the School of Design, College of Creative Arts, Massey University, New Zealand.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 144\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.4 x 8.4 x 6.6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 13, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755037720864,"sku":"9781350032521","price":55.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/781dfdff82935fe1fbc60aed9921bc55.webp?v=1780049074","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/fashion-installation-body-space-and-performance-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
