96,00 zł
ARCHIVIO is a magazine published by Promemoria Group. A unique object that aspires to bring to light unpublished fragments and extraordinary stories about archives, giving voice to the materials and the professionals who work there. The ambition is to show their passion, make us reflect and offer new perspectives on the idea and practice of memory.
ARCHIVIO is renewed every four issues: it preserves the name, intent and vision, but changes the editorial staff, design and inspirations, in order to always have new and fresh keys of interpretation. Featuring the collaboration of leading professionals on the international stage, starting from 2017 the magazine has explored more than 120 archives so far in 9 different issues, four of which are already sold out.
ISSUE 9 - THE FASHION ISSUE
When did fashion become obsessed with its own history?
Here begins the third cycle of ARCHIVIO: four thematic issues, each edited by a Guest Editor specialized in the field in order to have an expert eye to open the doors of the archives and show you where to look in these vast worlds. The first, ARCHIVIO N°9, is dedicated to Fashion, with Stefano Tonchi—curator and journalist in the field of fashion—as Guest Editor-in-Chief, joined by Marco Pecorari—scholar and Program Director at the MA in Fashion Studies at Parsons Paris. Editorial direction is by Daniela Hamaui, while the art direction is by Alessandro Gori. For our cover, we asked artist Francesco Vezzoli to create a portfolio that would put fashion archives in conversation with Pop Culture.
ARCHIVIO N°9, offers a mapping of the fashion archives international landscape at this moment in time and an overview of the many typologies and studies happening in the world we live in, divided in three sections: Public & Institutional, Brands & Strategies, Private & Personal.
The Fashion Issue also includes a special poster: an (in)complete mapping of the countless fashion archives in Italy. A research by Promemoria Group visually processed by Accurat. The result is a map that is also a small work of art.
