Eckhaus Latta
This 17th edition of A Magazine Curated By is a comprehensive immersion into the artistic universe of Eckhaus Latta anchored by the core conceptual twist of parody satirising the tropes of a fashion magazine and in particular the longstanding tradition of a September issue. Eckhaus Latta’s avant-garde approach to fashion is brought to light through its adoption and subsequent subversion of existing structures, whilst acknowledging the label’s place in America’s contemporary art scene today. Across two hundred pages, Eckhaus Latta have enlisted a multitude of talents to approach their own work and the fashion industry through both scrutiny and celebration.
“This is at the core of Eckhaus Latta: Being inspired by a pre-existing concept and letting the process mould the results, allowing initial ideas and desires to fall away and reshape into new autonomous forms.”
