Oppure II / Fashion towards New Media
“Fashion moves towards the new media” is the subheading of the second round of “Oppure”, an exhibition curated by Federico Sarica, who wisely put together some young artists working within the fashion industry: 3 fashion photographers – Stefano Galuzzi, Ilaria Orsini and Van Mossevelde+N – a director, Luca Merli and 3 fashion stylists – Rossana Passalacqua, Roberta Rusconi and Tanya Jones.
One time, they would have been called ‘insiders’, but since the fashion social sharing phenomenon puts everyone in the front row and down to the backstages, insiders just don’t exist anymore, that’s why we need another aesthetic evolution. Generically documenting a story that acts on a timeline instead of photography steady poses, filming thus becomes an immediate choice to go through this transformation.
Oppure is opening its doors on friday 14th May at 8 p.m. at Spazio Monotono, Vicenza (Italy).
