This took us back to our gradeschool days when we used to fill photo albums with collages of pretty things from fashion mags (we'd go to town on a Haprper's Bazaar, but NEVER cut up a Vogue ::wink::)
The ICP is currently running a series of four exhibitions celebrating 2009 as the ::swoon:: "Year of Fashion" and is up until the 3rd of May.
*oh ICP, you couldn't have made us happier if you tried.
Of the four exhibitions, undeniably the man event is "Weird Beauty."
Essentially a montage of tear sheets from the last two years of significant fashion photography, the most notable of course being from European mags like Numero, Doingbird, and French and italian Vogues. The US standouts being W and V magazines - go figure ;-) A collection of about 40 or so distinguished fashion photogs vandalising beauty's status quo. Knight, Lagerfeld, Klein, diCorcia, oh my!
*naturally, we were in heaven.
