The Intersection of Fashion and Art: Artworks That Stimulate the Senses

The Special Exhibition: BARNEYS NEW YORK × Whitestone Gallery

Fashion and contemporary art continue to push the boundaries of self-expression. Designs crafted with meticulous care and passion reflect a philosophy of visual artistry, transforming clothes into not just garments but dynamic sculptures, and works of art in their own right. In this way, fashion and art resonate, engaging in a profound dialogue of beauty.

This limited-time exhibition brings this dialogue to life. The sharp sensitivity of the two artists selected by BARNEYS NEW YORK and Whitestone Gallery, Kohei Kyomori and Tetsuo Mizù, harmonizes perfectly with the refined space, redefining the relationship between fashion and art. Visitors will experience the visual allure of fashion and the deeper intellectual and emotional stimulation that underpins it.
