“Art is an outlet toward regions which are not ruled by time and space”
— Marcel Duchamp

Avant-Guardian Musings is a curated space of ideas and information, resources, reviews and readings for undergraduate and graduate students studying modern and contemporary art history and visual art theory, film and photography studies, and the expanding field of visual culture and screen studies. For students currently enrolled in my courses or the field school, the blog and associated social media links also serve as a place of reflection and an extension of the ideas and visual material raised in lecture and seminar discussion.

We were probably most obsessed with Guo Pei’s custom made fabrics that look like optical illusions in material form. This pool of cloth is ombré toned in parts, scanned images in others, and looks at various angles like it is both liquid and metal. Incredible craftsmanship and attention to the smallest details in these couture creations #guopei #vancouverartgallery #vag #vancouver #couture #fashionart

A visit to the newly opened Guo Pei exhibition at the VAG. I was fortunate to take in all the couture and discuss materials and design (like the incredibly intricate “Rihanna Met gown”) with fabulous fashion experts @greenofashion and @heathccharles And while it remains to be seen if this fashion exhibition was properly placed in this particular art space, the show is indeed very special and inspiring 🙌🏻 #guopei #couture #vag #vancouverartgallery #vancouver #fashionart #rihanna
