From the 27th of May till the 5th of June Warehouse: A Place for Clothes in Context makes a late entree into 2021 by sharing a series of Warehouse publications and films accompanied by a talk on fashion and education at San Serriffe.
Warehouse aims to facilitate and create an open and critical discourse on fashion that goes beyond treating fashion as a commodity. There will be two films on show, one of ‘JOIN Collective Clothes’ by Anouk Beckers and one about ‘A Magazine Reader’ by Lu Lin. Furthermore a series of publications will be available which are produced and/or selected by Warehouse such as ‘D&K Lookbook’, ‘Mode & Mode’, ‘JOIN’, ‘PORTAL’, ‘Press & Fold’, ‘A Magazine Reader’, ‘Fat Belly Boy Booklet’, ‘Monument’, ‘Rework Magazine’ and ‘Collective Wandering’.
During the talk on Thursday the 27th at 20:00, curator David Smeulders (de Appel), artist Lu Lin and Warehouse members Anouk Beckers and Elisa van Joolen will talk about education in relation to fashion; how do we learn about, with and through fashion? We will be exploring ideas on collective learning, sharing, the role of publishing and activation towards agency and ownership.
To enter 2021 in style Warehouse will be giving away free Warehouse shoelaces with every purchase at San Serriffe during this period.
