A special exhibition by Comme des Garçons shown at Independent this year is the subject of a feature in The New York Times. Journalist Tim F. Schneider writes about Comme des Garçons’ groundbreaking “objects for the body” that blur lines between fashion and art, and about the boundary-pushing presentation of these designs as a sculptural installation.
Veteran dealer Jack Shainman first opened his eponymous gallery more than 40 years ago. Since then, he has introduced and supported the careers of some of the most significant artists at work today while continuing to foster new talent. Exhibiting at Independent for the first time, as New York critic Joseph R. Wolin writes, Jack Shainman Gallery will once more bring less familiar artists to the fore.
