Book Synopsis

For almost 50 years, the theme of fashion has been a constant in the work of US artist Cindy Sherman. Cindy Sherman Anti-Fashion is the first to focus on this close engagement with fashion and approaches her photographic oeuvre from a new perspective. In so doing, it sheds light on the interplay between art and fashion. For Sherman uses her numerous commissions from magazines and her collaborations with renowned designers as a constant source of artistic inspiration. This book reveals the subject of fashion as the starting point for the artist's critical investigation of gender, stereotypes, and our attitude to aging. The wide range of Sherman's assumed characters highlights the artificiality and changeability of identity, which now more than ever is shown to be selectable, (self-)constructed, and fluid.

Text in English and Dutch.
