Dysfashional

International fashion-art exhibition

Exhibition

Opening: 24.6. I 18 h

From 25 June to 17 July 2010 the exhibition DYSFASHIONAL will be presented in Berlin’s Haus der Kulturen der Welt. After Luxembourg, Lausanne and Paris, this exhibition in the context of fashion and art now also takes place in Berlin.

The artists and designers do not present clothes on the catwalk; rather they experiment with the notion and materiality of fashion. They present installations which reflect their creative universe and artistic approach, while exploring the borders of fashion and art. The exhibition is complemented with the project PARASITE, a platform for emerging designers and artists.

The following international artists and designers will exhibit works in the framework of DYSFASHIONAL: Raf Simons, Antonio Marras, Maison Martin Margiela, Hussein Chalayan, Damien Blottière & Pierre Hardy, Justin Morin & Billie Mertens, Bernhard Willhelm & Christophe Hamaide-Pierson, Kostas Murkudis, Gaspard Yurkievich & Florence Doléac, Hiroaki Ohya, Jerszy Seymour, Michael Sontag, Sissel Tolaas, Bless, Item Idem and Marc Turlan.

The curators are Luca Marchetti and Emanuele Quinz.

DYSFASHIONAL is supported by the Governing Mayor of Berlin, Klaus Wowereit, in his function as the representative of Franco-German cultural exchange, by be Berlin, Culturesfrance, MEA brand building, the City of Paris and others.
