<i>Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons Art of the In-Between</i>

Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons Art of the In-Between was an art exhibition about the work of fashion designer Rei Kawakubo and her designs for her fashion house, Comme des Garçons. The exhibition ran from May 4 to September 4, 2017 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. It was curated by Andrew Bolton, who worked closely with Kawakubo to select works for the exhibition. On display were 140 women's costumes spanning the entirety of her career until 2017. This exhibit represents Kawakubo in an immersive world of Gesamtkunstwerk, "total work of art". The exhibition explores the works of Rei Kawakubo, a fashion designer renowned for her avant-garde designs and propensity to subvert expectations of what constitutes attractiveness, taste, and fashionability. Approximately 140 pieces of Kawakubo's womenswear for Comme des Garçons are on display in the thematic exhibition, many of which feature heads and wigs designed and fashioned by Julien d'Ys. These pieces range in time from the early 1980s to her most recent collection. The exhibitions highlight the designer's ground-breaking explorations of "in-betweenness," or the zone between boundaries. In Kawakubo's works, objects are arranged according to nine aesthetic expressions of interstitiality: Absence/Presence, Design/Not Design, Fashion/Anti-Fashion, Model/Multiple, Then/Now, High/Low, Self/Other, Object/Subject, and Clothes/Not Clothes.
