Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, one of the most accomplished and thoughtful cultural commentators of the day, considers the contradictory nature of cultural relations. Elizabeth Wilson explores these themes through an examination of fashion, feminism, consumer culture, representation and postmodernism. Debates within feminism on the nature and effects of pornography are used to illustrate a particular kind of cultural contradiction. Wilson recognizes that postmodernism permitted the reappropriation of subjects that were not previously considered worthy of attention, or opposed to the idea of emancipation, chief among these was fashion. She shows that the association of an interest in this culturally significant subject with a revisionist project raises doubt

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is available as open access through the Knowledge Unlatched programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. "A remarkable resource for the field of fashion studies suitable for both newcomers ... {and] seasoned practitioners." - Fashion Historia "A precious source in the study of the subject ... inspiring." - The Journal of Dress History The last decade has seen the growing popularity and visibility of fashion as a cultural product, including its growing presence in museum exhibitions. This book explores the history of fashion displays, highlighting the continuity of past and present curatorial practices. Comparing and contrasting exhibitions from different museums and decades-from the Paris Exposition Universelle of 1900 to the Alexander McQueen Savage Beauty show at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2011, and beyond-it makes connections between museum fashion and the wider fashion industry. By critically analyzing trends in fashion exhibition practice over the 20th and early 21st centuries, Julia Petrov defines and describes the varied representations of historical fashion within British and North American museum exhibitions. Rooted in extensive archival research on exhibitions by global leaders in the field-from the Victoria and Albert and the Bath Fashion Museum to the Brooklyn and the Royal Ontario Museums-the work reveals how fashion exhibitions have been shaped by the values and anxieties associated with fashion more generally. Supplemented by parallel critical approaches, including museological theory, historiography, body theory, material culture, and visual studies, Fashion, History, Museums demonstrates that in an increasingly corporate and mass-mediated world, fashion exhibitions must be analysed in a comparative and global context. Richly illustrated with 70 images, this book is essential reading for students and scholars of fashion history and museology, as well as curators, conservators, and exhibition designers.

Book excerpt: It is with great pleasure we introduce the proceeding of the 5th International Conference on Accounting, Management, and Economics (ICAME 2020) on The New Normal Economy. This conference has gathered researchers, academicians, and practitioners who are concerned with the topics, developing policy recommendations towards a better resilience amidst crises. The theme of the 5th International Conference on Accounting, Management, and Economics (ICAME 2020) was “The New Normal Economy: Risk-Based Decision Making in Economics, Management, and Accounting Perspectives”. The sudden and rapid emergence of the New Normal Era, particularly in business industry forces various elements in the society to challenge the conventional, and universities as the higher education institutions are no exception. It poses challenges to universities to produce graduates with ability to respond to changes, compete globally, create innovations, and quickly adapt to the vast technology advancements. With this in mind, the 5th ICAME has taken the theme The New Normal Economy: Risk-Based Decision Making in Economics, Management, and Accounting Perspectives. The conference invited speakers from academic and business practitioners who are experts in their fields to share their insights related to business and research orientation in facing the New Normal Era. The conference also invited researchers, academicians, and practitioners to participate in the Call for Papers to share their research results. The organizer hopes that the conference can stimulate various new research and discussions about New-Normal Economy that can help society and business to navigate and adapt in this pandemic era.

Download or read book 1951 Exhibition of Architecture written by Harding McGregor Dunnett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Festival of Britain is perhaps best known for its South Bank Exhibition promoting British science and art to the post-war world, but one of the most important elements was the Architecture Exhibition, based in Poplar in East London. This exhibition was used to demonstrate the principles of modern town planning that had been laid out by Abercrombie, in particular in his County of London Plan. The project was named after George Lansbury, the Labour MP, London County Council (LCC) member and Poplar councillor. It was an effective demonstration of planning ideas adopted since the 1930s by influential planners, taking the village as a model and retaining the terraced house as a housing option among medium rise flats. Small squares and open spaces were favoured, with paved pedestrian spaces, all at lower than pre-war densities. The guide is revealing of the broader thinking in English planning in the mid century. It provides an opportunity for looking at conflicts among advocates of different planning ideas in the period of reconstruction and the move by architects to regain control of LCC housing from the Valuer’s Department. It offers the model of integrated professional specialisms that was seen as central to Modernism’s mission. It is also an opportunity to describe in more detail the interaction of different professions, including, for example, a sociologist, employed by the LCC in the creation of a model for reconstruction.
