10.9.08
In October 2008, Maison Martin Margiela will celebrate its 20th anniversary. On the occasion of this event, the MoMu organising a unique exhibition HOUSE MARTIN MARGIELA 20 The exhibition. This exhibition is the result of close cooperation with the Maison Martin Margiela and will take place on 12 September 2008 to February 8, 2009 at the Museum of Fashion in Antwerp.
After studying the department of fashion at the Academy of Antwerp, Martin Margiela began as an assistant at Jean-Paul Gaultier. In 1988, he founded the Maison Martin Margiela with Jenny Meirens, and in October the same year, he introduced his first parade, which caused a sensation.
It sows the foundation for a radically new aesthetic language with a silhouette
-- Slender shoulders and narrow
-- A break with the 'power dressing' 1980's.
His great discretion
-- Interviews are invariably granted on behalf of the House and no photograph of the creator is aired
-- Contrasted with the worship of stars dominating the fashion scene for years 1980 and 1990.
Maison Martin Margiela owes its fame to its deconstructivism especially in its use of materials, second hand or worthless. His work combines a special way a classic coupe and a conceptual mind. Maison Martin Margiela shows inside a garment, thus freeing its construction and focuses on the elements often scrupulously hidden. Maison Martin Margiela reveals strategies system, discovers "the rules of grammar" of fashion to develop from a creation is radically new. It follows an analysis of the system behind fashion and that manifests itself in various aspects of the house.
HOUSE MARTIN MARGIELA 20 The exhibition is not a classic but deepens retrospective rather different themes and concepts explored by the House last 20 years in its various collections, its parades, facilities and events throughout the world in development its shops and offices, in his remarkable style and its communication strategy exceptional.
The exhibition is produced by Bob Verhelst who worked many years for Maison Martin Margiela and who knows very well the work of the house. Bob Verhelst cooperated on several occasions successfully with the MoMu to design exhibitions and stage designs.
He began to work on codes and the aesthetic language of the Maison Martin Margiela and interpreted in a surprising exhibition concept.
At the exhibition, Maison Martin Margiela will present a series of products, limited edition, which will be sold to the home ModeMuseum throughout the duration of exposure. The exhibition will be accompanied by a publication in English.
