Fashion Aperture is back at the Teatrino with a new cycle of public screenings and a three-day workshop for students dedicated to exploring the relationship between fashion, cinema and art. This year the programme considers the fantastic and experimental scenarios produced by fashion, and analyses utopia and the concept of uchronia – alternate history – as fundamental aspects of fashion. The times and places invented by the fashion industry invite us to project ourselves elsewhere, in open-ended stories where the past and the future are continuously rewritten in the light of the present.
With the partecipation of Serpica Naro.
