[log in to unmask]Dear CSA Members and guests,
We
know you're busy setting your summer schedules, and we want to make
sure that you have the most current and up-to-date information on our
next program, Fashion at the Getty: Paris Life & Luxury and Fashion in the Middle Ages. On August 6, we will gather in Los Angeles for lunch and curator-led tours of these two exhibitions at the Getty. Paris: Life & Luxury examines the everyday activities of a Rococo Parisian town house, including dressing. The second exhibition, Fashion in the Middle Ages,
explores the figures depicted in illuminated pages of medieval
manuscripts, which could be recognized at a glance by the clothing they
wore.
Please watch your email for a forthcoming registration flyer and be sure to reserve AUGUST 6!
A
quick note: As many of you may have seen, this Sunday, June 4th, at 3
pm, the Getty presents "Dressing the Part: Historical Costume in Film."
Fashion historian Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell and costume designers James
Acheson (Dangerous Liaisons) and Deborah Landis (Indiana Jones) discuss fashion history and its representation in movies. Tickets are free; reserve yours at http://tickets.getty.edu/auto_choose_ga.asp?area=1.
Best,
