You look fabulous!

This upcoming exhbition might be of interest :)


You Look Fabulous

Dates: Oct 7, 2010 - Oct 31, 2010
Location: Night Gallery, Tempe Marketplace
Cost: Free
Opening Reception: Thursday and Friday, October 7 and 8, 6–9 p.m.

You Look Fabulous is an art exhibition featuring the work of graduate students, alumni and faculty from Arizona State University’s School of Art. Sculpture, fantasy, and fashion collide on the runway in this exhibition where functionality takes a side step to concept and dialogue. Explore unexpected couture. Metals, textiles, even objects found in the environment, are used to create bizarre and unique art for the human body. This exhibition extends from the odd to the extreme. And if it means functionality, you won’t find it in the Night Gallery’s wearable art exhibition.

Curated by Nan Vaughn, Master of Fine Art degree candidate at ASU’s Herberger Institute School of Art.
