DOPOLAVORO GOLAB & ERA STUDIO present BOYS CLUB, curated by Martin Butler and Giorgio Bartoli. The exhibition “Boys Club” is a group exhibition combining video, photography, fashion and performance that takes a fresh view on the portrayal of the adolescent male in contemporary society. The Dutch photographers Joost Vandebrug and Bart Julius Peters, the Canadian artist Kyle Tryhorn, the young French photographer Florent Routoulp / Chocolat_Poire and Korean fashion designer Hyun Yeu, represent several generations from three continents that all share elements of this fascination within their work.

She resists the easy categorization of underpinnings vs. apparel, activewear vs. daywear, and so on, and in so doing, seems to me to see into the future of style.”

In September, during Milan Fashion Week, Dopolavoro will host Victoria Bartlett’s show - an exposition of inspirations and concepts which delineate VPL (Visible Panty Line).
