SUMMARY:World of WearableArt™
DESCRIPTION:This year marks the 31st anniversary of the World of WearableArt™ (known as WOW®)\, New Zealand’s largest arts show. WOW® is an international design competition that attracts hundreds of entries\, with an annual awards show that presents the finalist garments in a theatrical extravaganza that collides at the intersection of fashion and art. The rules of the competition encourage anything that is in any way wearable\, as long as it is original\, beautifully designed\, and well-made\, resulting in garments that are constructed from an extraordinary array of traditional and unconventional materials. The challenge: take art off the wall and adorn onto the human form. The 32 award-winning garments presented in this exhibition represent some of the most original\, provocative\, and unorthodox objects in the WOW Museum collection\, demonstrating what designers from a wide variety of occupations can imagine when they are released from the constraints of “fashion” and are encouraged to see the human body as a blank canvas. “Think of an Alexander McQueen show meets the Nutcracker on crack and then take it up a notch.” –Huffington Post

SUMMARY:Melanie Yazzie: Finding Oneself Again and Again
DESCRIPTION:Melanie Yazzie is informed by the Diné philosophy of hozho — translated as blessings\, beauty\, and harmony. After experiencing illness\, she challenged herself to create artworks that find ways to heal from and to balance the negative effects of settler colonialism that Indigenous people live with on a daily basis. Her earlier works focused on calling attention to the harsh realities of racism\, poverty\, and loss of home territories. She continues to acknowledge these struggles\, but now layers her artworks with recuperative images. As a Mellon Foundation Artist in Residence at the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center at Colorado College in 2018\, Yazzie began using printing plates recovered from a 1939 book project about Diné healing practices. By layering the fractional images of the color-separation plates with her own iconography formed from memories of people and places\, Yazzie asserts the ongoing significance of Indigenous knowledge. This exhibition presents recent works created during the Mellon Foundation residency and over the course of a very productive time following her experience at Colorado Springs.
