ReFashioning Austria

Upon kind invitation of the Liu Haisu Art Museum and on behalf of the Austrian Federal Chancellery, we are presenting ReFashioning Austria in Shanghai. We would like to acknowledge this particular occasion by providing insight into the history and development of current Austrian fashion. Numerous examples of design trends and processes are brought together to form a dialogue, allowing for the broad and varied Austrian fashion landscape to be investigated from different angles: history, contemporary design and visual art, as well as an intercultural exchange project original to this exhibition.
 
ReFashioning Austria invites the public in Shanghai to experience the contemporary creativity of a very different Austria - through fashion, design, drawings, photography and animation, artists and designers are transcending old borders and writing new stories.

The show will include the following four sections: 
I The review of Austrian classic fashion
II Art works designed by well-known Austrian fashion designers
III The exhibition of the art works made by academia from famous institutions of fashion.
IV The exhibition of the art works inspired by Chinese and Austrian art masterpieces.
