Description
What Artists Wear explores the clothes worn by modern artists, revealing them as tools of expression, storytelling, resistance, and creativity. Fashion critic and art curator Charlie Porter guides us through the wardrobes of artists, from studio to performance, at work or at play.
Porter's analysis is woven with original interviews and contributions from artists and their families and friends, offering a new way of understanding art and the clothes we all wear. With over 300 images, this book is a radical and gleeful inspiration to see each outfit as a canvas on which to convey an identity or challenge the status quo.
