A forthcoming show at the Fashion Museum Hasselt sees two former Olympic athletes, Elodie Ouédraogo and Olivia Borlée, guest curate an in-depth exploration of sports’ enduring influence on fashion. Beginning with the early history of sportswear, the exhibition will trace the emergence of activewear into the realms of high fashion, while examining the many iconic collaborations this collision of worlds has spawned.
American artist James Bartolacci is bringing the ambience of New York nightlife to London with his first UK solo show at Taymour Grahne Projects. The evocative works on display see Bartolacci channel his personal experience of queer nightlife in NYC into oil paintings and pastels, made during the pandemic and conjuring up the intimate, neon-lit atmospheres so many have missed in the past year and a half.
