About the event
Join us for the Fashion & Theory Book Club in September to delve into The Anti-Aesthetic: Essays on Postmodern Culture edited by Hal Foster!
This collection of essays explores how postmodern critics and artists challenged modernism’s ideas of originality and progress across various fields like art, architecture, and photography. It also investigates the effectiveness of postmodern pastiche in disrupting conventional structures. The discussions around the commodified body and image serve as significant reference points for fashion theory.
