“Fashionality” is a newly coined term that refers to the visual culture and semiotics of dress and adornment. Combining the words “fashion,” “personality,” and “nationality,” it suggests the interplay between clothing, identity and culture. Reflecting wide geographic and cultural diversity, this exhibition focuses upon the ways in which the concerns, identities and aesthetics of those living in Canada are expressed, deconstructed and reconfigured through the idiom of dress.

This blog records exhibition-related information, as well as work and events related to artists appearing in the show.

Don't Miss Miss America at Centre Space

The Amazing Kent Monkman does it again in another show at Centre Space in Toronto:

The work shown here is one of the artist's latest, and is called Miss America.  Do I hear any votes for a duet with Miss Canadiana?


This awe-inspiring show is on until August 11th.
