OUTFITS
Olaf Habelmann, Michael Kleine, Henrike Naumann

26 July - 31 August 2019

Wave-Gothic-Looks in Leipzig, Comme des Garçons Sappeure in Congo-Kinshasa, Fashion-Branding in Fifa-Land, Laubenpieperinterieurs, tapestry variations: How does identity and desire materialise in everyday objects, surfaces and styles, how does trauma and memory transport themselves in fashion through different cultural contexts? OUTFITS shows artistic works that examine fashion and lifestyle in processes of social change and the processing of history on location and in global circulation. The artists are linked by their engagement with stage space, scenography, costume design and styling. In different ways, all works play with simulation, scenography, staging - strategies used in theatre and fashion.
