I watched this mini film by Vice Style from the Visionaries series thinking it was going to be a basic piece promoting Nick Knight, legendary photographer and creator of the revolutionary website SHOWstudio. Which is fine because Nick Knight is a talented dude; you won’t need to pay attention to be blown away by the photographic and videographic artwork that the film is punctuated with. Really though, this video is more of a rundown of the history of fashion, with a highly articulate emphasis on what’s happening at the present moment and how this relates to the rest of the world.
If you know nothing about fashion then watch this video to learn about the social, economic and political ideas entangled within that industry you may have passed off as being merely shallow and degenerate.
Ascribing meaning to everything is something you can and should do. Every part of culture should be given meaning. If nothing had meaning, then what would be the point?
Also, hope you all haven't been affected too much by these shitty riots.
