Stewart Uoo at 47 Canal
(link)
Uoo is fashionable, and that used to be an insult. Fashion is means for representation. Fashionable would mean representation of a moment- pejoratively implied that the moment is fleeting. Speculative-fictions - Sci-Fi - fashion, perhaps misguidedly, attempt projections of futures to distend its transience by destroying its moment. The trendbook's fashion is always fleeting but, at their best, allow new representations, if only for a time. Anyway, Uoo's "politics of luxury" - like many today - is for a fashion without camp, that the glitz doesn't necessarily have to be artifice, that we can be rich.
