STYLING: BLACK EXPRESSION, REBELLION,
AND JOY THROUGH FASHION
Margaret Rose Vendryes, Igbo Billy - Billy Porter, 2020.
STYLING: BLACK EXPRESSION, REBELLION, AND JOY THROUGH FASHION is a sartorial escapade through the multifaceted representations of contemporary Black style and their cultural significance. The exhibition celebrates the legacy of using personal style to channel self-expression, rebellion, and joy as inspired by movements such as the Harlem Renaissance. Thus giving substance and expansion to the meaning behind making a "fashion statement."
Work by artists from Styling: Black Expression, Rebellion, and Joy Through Fashion, may be purchased on Artsy. A portion of art sales proceeds will benefit the Howard University Art Gallery and student programs.
