Mack
Lecture Theatre, The Glasgow School of Art
Free admission
As part of the GSA's Wednesday Night Open Forum series comes a night of
discussion on the work of Apparatus 22, a loose group of artists and
researchers interested in the 'critical potential of clothing and
fashion' and exploring long-term concerns about fashion's disposability.
Apparatus 22 was initiated in spring 2011
after a reconfiguration process of the cutting-edge fashion label Rozalb de
Mura (2006 – early 2011). Olah Gyarfas is a permanent guest of the collective.
The group explore the crossovers between art, design and fashion, focusing on
themes such as the critical potential of clothing and fashion, the long-term
concerns about fashion's disposability, mixing fiction with reality, and
blurring the lines between genders. Apparatus 22 often stage work as
performances or art installations.
