DIANE ROSENSTEIN GALLERY/CURATED BY MICHAEL SLENSKI
831 N. HIGHLAND AVE. L.A., CA/13 JANUARY 2024
Art and fashion have been intertwined so long, it’s hard to tell which influences what. Think: Elsa Schiparelli’s Dail inspired surrealist lobster hat, Louis Vuitton’s collabs with Murakami, Richard Prince, Yayoi Kusama’s polka dots; McQueen’s Damien Hirst scarf, its Chuck Arnoldi print collection. The synergy goes on and one. Must art live only on walls -or can it enliven bodies? Individualism is the throughline, the connector. At Diane Rosenstein Gallery’s “Signal to Noise” show, colorful work by 22 artists, curated by writer Michael Slenske, play on the abstraction described by painter Wassily Kandinsky’s as “synesthesia”: the subjective sensation of an image. Patrons’ sartorial art was equally subjective: Self-as-Art is an art form, too – as you can see here.
