Fashion Film: Ass to Ashes
Artist Marianne Maric contributes a double bill of fashion films to our Punk season. Frequently using her friends in her work, Maric puts an emphasis on the importance of the subject. Her punk film offerings star the actor and designer Louis-Marie de Castelbajac as an aristocratic 'punk pervert' engrossed in demented acts of destruction and self-adornment. Her choice of participant is also a nod to his fashion designer father Jean-Charles de Castelbajac, whose surrealist and pop-art influenced clothes were a notable part of punk fashion.
