Besides some really crazy/cool parties lastweekend ( BD party at Babrie store, wig home party and my first rooftoo party) I visited quite nice exhibition at The Dutch Culture Centre in Shanghai. It is a new venue and their first exhibition Taking a Stance - 8 Critical Attitudes in Chinese and Dutch Architecture and Design was quite interesting. The exhibition centres on the work of eight ground-breaking designers from the Netherlands and China. Ma Ke (fashion designer from China)was the best surprise fr me - I noticed her conceptual arty fashion design already before- I watched her Paris fashion Week show/instalation video on my itunes podecast , but had no idea she is so wow. Here it is V&A Fashion in Motion: Ma ke Wuyong
Her outfits are 100% handmade, using ancient Chinese waving techinques, just so impressive! Fashion as an Art statement is always so inspiring, her display was Her Wu Yong collection photos are just aaamazing and hartbreaking:
Another fashion designer at Dutch Culture Centre was dutch minimalist Alexander van Slobbe. The book was more exiting then fashion display. A bit boooring....But anyway- It is so cool there is something fresh going on in Shanghai!
The Dutch Culture Centre will host a unique and rich programme, in total of 6 months, on some 20 performances by performing artists who enjoy high status in the Netherlands! www.2010dcc.com/exhibitions
