Papabygote, Elisava, 2010
Another end of the year show which I visited in July was organized in conjunction with the graduation of the masters students in fashion design at Elisava, a school of design in Barcelona. It was great to witness the experimental and imaginative projects completed by the graduating class. In a testament to the multi-media nature of fashion today, the students were recquired to complete a collection, stage a performance to present their collection and produce a short video showcasing their work and the concepts behind it. Also in the spirit of collaborations coach outlet store online, the majority of the students worked in pairs or more for the completion of the work��a system that brilliantly debunks the outdated notion of the ��genius�� artist (and by extension designer) for the more realistic idea of collaborative work.
The program is directed by Beatriu Malaret and Toni Mir��; the year-end presentation was attended by Diana Pernet coach outlet wallets, the Parisian fashion critic and video journalist. Through Pernet, I learned that a number of different tutors from various disciplines work at Elisava (for instance, Alex Murray-Leslie of Chicks on Speed). This is probably one of the reasons for the experimental and innovative nature of the work.
One of my favourite pieces was the film and collection by Papabygote. Their short is witty and subtle and reminded me of the work of David Bestu�� and Marc Vives, the brilliant video artist duo, also from Barcelona.
