Book Launch: Jeppe Ugelvig

Coinciding with Copenhagen Fashion Week, we are pleased to invite you to the official book launch and signing of “Fashion Work 1993-2018, 25 Years of Art in Fashion” by Jeppe Ugelvig. In this unprecedented volume, the Danish New York-based critic and curator recounts a little-explored history of art/fashion hybridity through the genre-defying practices of Bernadette Corporation, Susan Cianciolo, BLESS and DIS (whose solo exhibition DIS presents: What Do People Do All Day?  at Kunsthal Charlottenborg runs until 13. September 2020), exploring their experimental approaches to fashion production between the art and fashion worlds in a time of radical societal change.

Featuring never-before seen archival material from the artists, “Fashion Work” is an exhilarating scrapbook of the millenial fashion-art scenes in New York, Paris, and Berlin—and an urgent call for new models of fashion practice in the contemporary. Signed books will be available to purchase. There is free entrance to Kunsthal Charlottenborg every Wednesday between 17-20 pm.
