Misphits Exhibition SoHo, NYC

is a celebration of the misfit, outcast, and the obscure.  In a time of corporations and music labels, a look back at the punk era, and then the grunge, a magnifying glass is placed on the corporate exploitation of sub cultures. Through subject choices, and material, the exhibition more closely points its finger towards fashion, and culture’s consumption. Taking a look forward to our modern time, the exhibition chooses Amanda Lepore, a famous trans model, as its modern day “Punk” hero.  She, like the punk jackets, represent the sometimes audacious nature of the modern day movement.
