ALTER/MODE - Bogomir Doringer / Fashion and despair

The purpose of the exhibition ALTER/MODE: a world in between: fashion beyond
clothes is to function as a venue of dialogue. The artists Andrea Ayala Closa
and Bogomir Doringer, influenced by different times, spaces and media, redefine
the notion of fashion in the era of globalization. They showcase a world where
fashion meets art; a world sprung from the theory that fashion is separate
from clothes and their functionality – where the contradiction itself becomes a
way through which to observe fashion. Ayala Closa exhibits at the Galleri Jonas
Kleerup and Doringer shows his work at Weld

För att avsluta ALTER/MODE arrangeras ett symposium lördagen den 30 maj, 2009. Under dagen möts curatorer, konstnärer, designers och producenter för att utforska gränslandet kring mode ur ett interdisciplinärt perspektiv.

Frågeställningarna som påbörjats i utställningen diskuteras vidare under denna dag. Syftet är att bidra till en diskussion om mode i vidare bemärkelse, se över en disciplin i förändring samt samtala om relationen mellan konst och mode, även hur vi kan utbyta erfarenheter mellan dessa olika fält.

Dagen varvas med personliga röster kring modeprojekt för att övergå till hur mode på olika sätt har används på andra sätt än det som vi är vana att se.

Följande föreläsare kommer att delta: Tomas Rajnai, Andrea Ayala Closa, Bogomir Doringer, Ingrid Giertz Mårtensson, Jelena Rundqvist, Ninna Berger, Sofia Hedman, Camilla Larsson, Ulrika Gunnarsdotter, Gustaf Von Arbin, Ida Sjöstedt, Magnus Ericksson, Sarah Törnkvist, Richard Julin,


SYMPHOSIUM: Fashion beyond clothes


WHAT: This exhibition features a pedagogical part including lectures, discussions, projections and installations, this conference presents a critical appraisal of an expanding field of fashion from installations, performance-based live-projections, sculpting, video art, photography to digital and virtual reality events.

This one-day symposium brings together curators, artists, designers, producers social scientists and policy-makers to explore fashion from an interdisciplinary perspective.

Today fashion, in its broadest sense, is not only the site of important economic and cultural praxis, but equally an interface for questions of identity, politics of representation, and redefinition of social models. It is this "expanded" conception, as observed in cinema and sculpture of the sixties, which should lead us to reassess the frontiers and models structuring the field of "fashion" .

Expanded Fashion identifies a practice which activates fashion disconnected from trends, shopping and the functionality of clothes. Instead working with it as an artistic medium expressing personal thoughts and ideas.

Speakers and artists include : Tomas Rajnai, Andrea Ayala Closa, Bogomir Doringer, Ingrid Giertz Mårtensson, Jelena Rundqvist, Ninna Berger, Sofia Hedman, Camilla Larsson, Ulrika Gunnarsdotter, Gustaf Von Arbin, Ida Sjöstedt, Magnus Ericksson, Sarah Törnkvist, Richard Julin,
