SILVER Seller in Milano, Italia
Beautiful and rare poster of the Metropolitan Museum of Art December 1997-March 1998 Gianni Versace exhibition. The poster depicts a photo by Irving Penn. Penn's photo depicts the famous 1987 theatre costume in black quilted satin and white satin with black and white appliqués. From the Theatre collection. Approximate dimensions 89 x 63.5 cm. The poster is an interesting black and white look at one of Versace's most extravagant evening dresses. This item would be the perfect addition to any Gianni Versace or MMA collection. Versace's catwalk collections were always spectacular and theatrical, and he found commissions (the first in 1982) to create costumes for theatre and ballet irresistible. These, in turn, clearly influenced his fashion. Some of Versace's most remarkable works were designed for choreographer Maurice Béjart. The creations met strict practical requirements and enhanced the dancers' movements, while offering a dynamic visual narrative. Versace was inspired by the great masters of fashion theatre, Christian Dior, Cristobal Balenciaga and Schiaparelli, for his larger than life costumes. Acknowledging his loyalty to the performing arts, he said: 'For me, theatre is liberation.
