This is the primary main exhibition devoted to the six style designers accountable for placing Antwerp on the style map. Dirk Bikkembergs, Ann (*10*), Walter Van Beirendonck, Dries Van Noten, Dirk Van Saene, and Marina Yee, who all studied collectively on the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, introduced their collections in 1986 on the British Designer Show, and the remaining, they are saying, is historical past. In 2014 I used to be mesmerized by Dries Van Noten’s work at his standalone exhibition Inspirations on the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, so I’m greater than excited to see his work alongside his contemporaries and be taught extra about their affect on the broader style group we all know right now.
