“Finally a book on the complex relationship between art and fashion adopts a different
approach. Instead of the usual attempts to decide where the boundary lines might be
drawn, this anthology examines the areas where art and fashion meet. These essays
are not only vital for scholars and students within both disciplines—for anyone and
everyone, this is a highly enjoyable book.”
—Pamela Church Gibson, Reader in Cultural and Historical Studies, London College
of Fashion, University of the Arts, London
“A book that both traces, and participates in, the decay of the idea that Fashion is
the superficial Other of Art. Between the covers of this book lies all the evidence one
might need about the sustained collaboration between modernist artists and fashion
designers. Through a wealth of historical detail and conceptual sophistication this
book tells a fascinating story whose relevance will lie far beyond Fashion Studies.”
—Michael Carter, author of
Fashion Classics from Carlyle to Barthes
“There have been previous books written on Fashion and Art, but none is of this stan-
dard. In its reach and sophistication, this book is a stand-alone in its field. For many
years, fashion and art have been points of discussion and debate, and the subject
of isolated disciplinary studies. Geczy and Karaminas and the key authors assem-
bled here have done us a great service in elevating this topic to an area of serious
interdisciplinary study, giving it coherence and circumscription.
Fashion and Art
is a
landmark book for whose appearance couldn’t be more timely.”
—Joseph H. Hancock II, Drexel University, Philadelphia
“A much awaited and exciting collection... bringing together some of the most promi-
nent scholars and curators working within fashion (studies) and art (history),
Fashion
and Art
boldly problematizes the conflicting, yet symbiotic relations between art and
fashion.”
—Louise Wallenberg, Director, Centre for Fashion Studies at Stockholm University
“Using thickly described and critically analyzed case materials, the authors in this
edited volume break new ground in the ongoing debate regarding fashion and art.
From euromodernities to contemporary, global “fashionscapes,” this volume sheds
refreshing light on the ambiguities, anxieties, and aesthetic pleasures associated
with the fashion—art relationship.”
—Susan B. Kaiser, Chair of the Division of Textiles and Clothing at
the University of California, Davis
