Dimensional Lines: Art + Dress September 17, 2011

The Evanston Art Center asked a group of Chicago-based artists and designers who are at the forefront of their disciplines to collaborate on an exhibition exploring the relationship between art and fashion. This exhibition will explore this cultural phenomenon in the context of Chicago's own vibrant contemporary art and fashion scenes. Its curator, Gillion Carrara, has enlisted an international group of artists and designers, including Fraser Taylor, Conrad Hamather, Melissa Serpico Kamhout, Beata Kania, Anke Loh, Kristin Mariani, Katrin Schnabl, and Kristina Sparks. Each comes to the project with an established body of work and diverse experiences. These include producing illustrations for Andy Warhol at Interview Magazine to creating intricate embroideries in the couture ateliers of Givenchy in Paris.
