RICK OWENS

"SUBHUMAN

INHUMAN

SUPERHUMAN" 

15 DEC 2017- 25 MAR 2018 LA TRIENNALE DI MILANO

"The clothes I make are my autobiography. They are the calm elegance I want to get to and the damage I've done on the way. They are an expression of tenderness and raging ego. They are an adolescent idealization and its inevitable defeat." Rick Owens

Rick Owens is one of my favorite designers. He is a radical designer with a different voice and unconventional aesthetics. It was a great opportunity for me to see this magnificent exhibition.   

It is the first retrospective entirely dedicated to the California - born designer. He launched in 1994 the line with his name. In 2003 he moved to Paris. 

The exhibition tells a story of endless creativity in two decades: more than 100 garments, objects, accessories, furniture and runway videos.
