http://www.vernissage.tv | The exhibition Gay Chic - from subculture to mainstream at the Museum of Design in Zurich takes up a topical social subject. It looks at the way style and aesthetics from the homosexual subculture are affecting our everyday visual lives and setting trends. Our exhibition creates a visual dialogue showing how ‘Gay Chic’ influences advertising, fashion, mass media, films and pop music, but also the significance of historical figures like the ‘dandy’ and the fashionable “garçonne” female type, alongside the artistic models.” (PR Museum of Design Zurich).
