Από το αρχαίο ελληνικό ένδυμα στη μόδα του 21ου αιώνα
(Ptychoseis = Folds + Pleats : Drapery from Ancient Greek Dress to 21st Century Fashion)
Τhe first major international fashion exhibition in Greece. The event provides a unique opportunity to explore the aesthetic qualities of the plasticity of drapery, both through selected ancient Greek sculptures and through regional clothing from around the world, as well as haute couture and prêt-à-porter creations by contemporary designers. A special place is occupied by the work of Mariano Fortuny, Madeleine Vionnet and Issey Miyake - three designers who have played an important role in giving prominence to drapery of quality. The Peloponnesian Folklore Foundation was able to give carte blanche to the Miyake Design Studio to present its collection Fête in an exhibition space designed specially for the purpose by Tokujin Yoshioka. The exhibition will also feature garments by, amongst others, Cristobal Balenciaga, Jean Desses, Yohji Yamamoto, John Galliano, Elsa Schiaparelli and Rei Kawakubo, displayed alongside Maasai robes and ancient Greek sculptures. There will also be screenings of video recordings, and a wealth of photographs, including a selection by Marcus Tomlinson, Gaetan Gatian de Clerambault and Jackie Nickerson. The exhibition is co-curated by Ioanna Papantoniou and Vasilis Zidianakis. |
