Galleria del Costume

Florenz (I) > Dauerausstellung

La collezione comprende abiti di corte e di gala, uniformi, vestiti d’alta moda, pezzi prêt-à-porter, costumi di scena teatrali e cinematografici.
Il percorso delinea la storia della moda nel corso degli ultimi secoli e ospita anche creazioni dei più famosi stilisti del Novecento, come Valentino, Versace, Armani, Missoni e Saint Laurent.
Tutti gli abiti vengono esposti su manichini con la struttura corporea tipica del periodo in cui l’abito venne realizzato. Il corpo femminile infatti veniva spesso modificato, anche attraverso strutture costrittive come i corsetti.
La maggior parte degli oggetti della Galleria del Costume proviene da donazioni pubbliche e private, che includono anche interi guardaroba di personaggi celebri, dal grande valore storico e documentario.
Le collezioni celebri includono gli abiti dell’aristocratica siciliana Donna Franca Florio, uno dei personaggi più noti della belle époque, o i costumi di Eleonora Duse, una delle più famose attrici teatrali italiane.

Dressing the body. Silhouettes and fashion (1550-2015)

Barcelona (ES) > Dauerausstellung

Since ancient times, human beings have altered the shape and appearance of their bodies by means of hairstyles, jewellery, tattoos and especially their clothes.
In every age, the different ways of dressing are intimately connected with moral, social and aesthetic codes. Fashion imposes standards of beauty; silhouettes and volumes are modified and nature gives way to artifice. Clothes change the body's proportions and alter the wearer's relationship with physical space and other people. The exhibition Dressing the Body sets out to show how clothes modify the appearance of the body by way of actions that have alternately tended to compress it and liberate it, from the sixteenth century to the present.

Von Samtbrokat und Häutchengold – Ausgewählte Paramente aus dem Danziger Mittelalterschatz

Lübeck (D) > seit 19.01.2019, bis auf weiteres

Rund die Hälfte des berühmten Danziger Paramentenschatzes gehört als Dauerleihgabe der Evangelischen Kirche Hannover seit 1990 zu den Highlights des St. Annen-Museums. Es handelt sich um kostbarste Gewänder für den Gottesdienst. Feinste Stickereien mit purem Gold und byzantinische Seiden zeigen den hohen Wert, der diesen Gewändern ehemals zugemessen wurde. Sie stammen aus der ehemaligen Marienkirche in Danzig und sind vorwiegend im  14. Jahrhundert entstanden. In der Kirche versteckt, überdauerten sie Reformation und Kriege. Erst im 19. Jahrhundert hat man sie zufällig bei Bauarbeiten wiederentdeckt. Das macht sie so besonders wertvoll, wurden sie doch über Jahrhunderte weder benutzt noch verändert. Nach der Maueröffnung wurde ein Teil der textilen Schätze nach Lübeck gebracht, während die andere Hälfte sich weiterhin in Danzig - heute im Nationalmuseum - befindet. Die Danziger Paramente wurden in Lübeck einige Jahre nicht mehr gezeigt. Jetzt werden erstmals wieder ausgewählte Stücke konservatorisch optimiert in die Dauerausstellung des St. Annen-Museums integriert. Dabei wird großer Wert auf das Miteinander von Glasmalerei und Altären in Verbindung mit den symbolisch genutzten Gewändern gelegt. Sie alle dienten dazu, den Gottesdienst als großes Fest für die Christen zu gestalten. Mit dem neu eröffneten Paramentenraum wird das St. Annen-Museum wieder um eine bedeutende Attraktion reicher. Zugleich wird ein Katalog zu diesem Schatz erscheinen.

Art and Innovation: Traditional Arctic Footwear from the Bata Shoe Museum Collection

Toronto (CA) > seit 20.02.2016

At the top of the world, the Arctic spans over fourteen million square kilometers and includes eight countries. The challenging landscapes of this circumpolar expanse seem harsh and inhospitable, yet the region is home to over forty distinct culture groups who have thrived there for centuries, creating brilliantly beautiful and diverse solutions to meet these challenges. Among the most innovative is the footwear and clothing created by Arctic women whose ingenuity is reflected in the remarkable variety of garments made; a variety that reflects both environmental as well as cultural needs.
From innovative technologies deftly used to ensure survival and comfort to intricate, decorative techniques used to culturally ground wearers, the incredible range of circumpolar attire is a stunning testament to the art and technology of dress found in the Arctic.

Taking the Stage

Washington, DC (USA) > Dauerausstellung ab 24.09.2016

This exhibition explores the history of African Americans in theater, film, and television in order to celebrate their creative achievements, demonstrate their cultural impact and illuminate their struggles for equal representation on the stage of American entertainment. Visitors will see how African Americans transformed the ways they are represented onstage by challenging racial discrimination and stereotypes and striving to produce more positive, authentic and diverse images of African American identity and experience. Together these stories suggest how African American performing artists also paved the way for broader social change. Stories include Paul Robeson’s role in Othello, Ntozake Shange’s For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide/When the Rainbow Is Enuf and the Black Stuntmen’s Association in Hollywood.
