Fashion "isms"
NABA TALKS
From word to object—a dialogue between language, art and design
May 15 2024, 6.00pm
Free admission upon registration
The third intervention of the series of NABA TALKS focuses on the"isms" that characterize contemporary art and fashion, using their inspirators as examples. We will, therefore, start from Chanel's Minimalism to explore its nuances up to Armani and beyond, then we will investigate Schiaparelli's Citationism, continuing to Gucci, and finally, we will analyse various Expressionisms, from Balenciaga to Rick Owens. The guest at the conference is Fabriano Fabbri (lecturer in Contemporary Styles and Arts and Forms of Contemporary Fashion at the University of Bologna and the author of several essays and monographs, including the double volume La moda contemporanea, published by Einaudi in 2019 and 2021.
