Description
Whyart - A La Mode
Aude Lehmann / Tan Wälchli (Zurich, Switzerland)
Since 2004, designer Aude Lehmann (1976) and literary scholar Tan Waelchli (1974), both based in Zurich, have developped the book series Whyart - Aura, Glamour, A la mode, examining the current landscape of design, art and popular culture.
The third volume asks what it means to be 'à la mode' today. When Karl Lagerfeld works for H&M, Bruno crawls on the runway behind Paris Hilton and Louis Vuitton sell their bags inside a Murakami exhibition, this indicates that the frontiers which used to separate art and fashion, original and copy, in and out are no longer extant. A la mode therefore proposes a new approach to fashion. From Viktor&Rolf to 50Cent, from Kate Moss to Sarah Jessica Parker, the various contributors seek out a 'third way' of fashion transcending the old dichotomies.
With contributions by Bastien Aubry, Anus Belkrem, Dimitri Broquard &Valerio d'Odorico, Anuschka Blommers & Niels Schumm, Daniela Janser, JOFF & Julia Born, Florian Keller, Susanne von Ledebur, Cynthia Leung, Simone Meier, David Ratmoko, Shirana Shahbazi, Zsigmond Toth, Lex Trueb, Tirdad Zolghadr
