NYFLAG | "Alexander McQueen: Savage Beuaty"

The New York Freud Lacan Analytic Group

Invites

Contemporary Culture and Psychoanalysis Seminar

"Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty"

at The Metropolitan Museum of Art

August 3rd - 8:30PM, Barnard College

Discussion led by Robert Buck & Cyrus Saint Amand Poliakoff

The new seminar dedicated to psychoanalysis and contemporary culture will discuss the sensational retrospective of designer Alexander McQueen at The Metropolitan Museum of Art on view through August 7th 2011. The unprecedented, mass phenomenon of the exhibition invites us to consider the status of the Semblant and the object in fashion, one distinct from the art object in an era of the primacy of Jouissance.

"I want to be the purveyor of a certain silhouette or a way of cutting so that when I am dead and gone people will know that the 21st century was started by Alexander McQueen." - Alexander McQueen

It is recommended to have visited the exhibit at:

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

1000 Fifth Avenue, New York
