We recommend asking The Met for further information regarding their available fixtures as well. ABOUT There is a relatively small collection that exists in the Marist Fashion Archives. A large majority of the available collection is borrowed and will soon be returned due to lack of value. Garments owned are great as a reference collection, but not for exhibition display. Estimated 1,500 - 1,800 Pieces COLLECTION GOALS AMERICAN SPORTSWEAR A goal for the direction of the Marist Fashion Collection. Rather than focusing on Victorian pieces, this will build upon Marist College’s history as an American institution while speaking to the general lack of archival acquisitions of American designers. REFERENCE Serves as a resource for students to borrow. This collection will have a catalog of all garments available for borrowing. As most of the owned collection pieces are homemade, they will be of great use for understanding garment construction. FIXTURES Brackets and poles to display kimonos. Archival Mannequins Two full length display cases and two table height display cases. 12 THE TARGET 13 HOUSES MORE THAN 2 MILLION PIECES OF ART (Lock) 3RD MOST VISITED ART MUSEUM WORLDWIDE (Prichard) THE MET Expansion of their education programs and popularity among college students.

Drawing on acclaimed style bible The Look: Adventures in Rock & Pop Fashion, The Look Presents is a creative hub for the legendary designers inspired by the combustion that occurs when great music meets fantastic style. With three separate collaborative collections produced exclusively for Topman in 08, The Look Presents premieres in stores in May with the animalistic designs of classic 70s label Wonder Workshop, originally worn by such rock icons as Iggy Pop, Sid Vicious, Mick Jagger, Marc Bolan and Led Zeppelin.

  • Popular Music Journalism As Public Sphere
    UNIVERSITY OF STIRLING PEDRO NUNES Department of Film and Media POPULAR MUSIC AND THE PUBLIC SPHERE: THE CASE OF PORTUGUESE MUSIC JOURNALISM Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January, 2004 i Abstract Music journalism has been acknowledged as an important space of mediation between artists and consumers. Journalists and critics have played an historical role in the creation of discourse on popular music and are acknowledged by the music industry as an important referent in promotion strategies. Research on the subject has been mostly focused either on the relationship between music journalism and the wider music industry in which it operates or on its status as a field of cultural production. Little consideration has been given to the role played by music journalists in articulating popular music with wider political, social and cultural concerns. This thesis will examine the case-study of Portuguese popular music journalism. It will address its historical evolution and current status by taking into consideration some dimensions, namely, the wider institutional contexts that frame the status of music journalism and how they work upon it, the ideologies and values realised in journalistic discourse, the journalists’ relationship to the music industry (as represented by record labels/companies and concert promotion companies) and issues of interactivity with readers. The thesis will draw on theories of the public sphere and, to a lesser extent, on Bourdieu’s notions of field, capital and habitus to assess the possibilities for music journalism to create reasoned discourse on ii popular music and, therefore, contribute to wider debates on the public sphere of culture.

  • Morality in the Music Press, 1967-1983 by Patrick Michael John
    Sometimes Good Guys Don’t Wear White: Morality in the Music Press, 1967-1983 by Patrick Michael John Glen A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History November 2012 Abstract Sometimes Good Guys Don’t Wear White: Morality in the Music Press, 1967- 1983 This thesis argues that between 1967 and 1983 the music press became increasingly embroiled in extra-musical, social and cultural issues. The music press provided an arena for editors, journalists, musicians and readers to debate social mores. This has gone unnoticed in the existing historiography. The music press – which was conventionally assumed to favour ‘permissiveness’ – hosted a variety of different moral viewpoints that challenge our understanding of conversations on social mores from 1967-1983. Bringing the music press to the fore of historical analysis in this period illustrates that British moral discourse was complex, fragmented and drew from a variety of narratives from the conservative to the radical. The thesis examines how moral debates emerged in the late-1960s’ music press and then investigates the most salient themes that elicited discussions. These themes include youthful rebellion and generational divisions, sex, sexuality, drug use, gender, anti-racism, violent transgression, urban decay and alienation. The thesis analyses how these themes were narrated in the music press and identifies multiple viewpoints were articulated in reference to other tensions that affected moral conversations, such as the music press’s commercial concerns and journalistic styles. It recognises that the music press gave journalists, musicians and readers considerable scope to express their views. Thus the music press is a unique source for gauging the sentiments and proclivities of youth, music subcultures, the press and music industry.

  • UNIVERSITY of CALIFORNIA Los Angeles the Politics of Musical
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles The Politics of Musical Amateurism, 1968-1981 A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Musicology by Benjamin Court 2017 © Copyright by Benjamin Court 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION The Politics of Musical Amateurism, 1968-1981 by Benjamin Court Doctor of Philosophy in Musicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2017 Professor Tamara Judith-Marie Levitz, Chair This dissertation defines “amateurism” to include a characteristic set of beliefs, a body of knowledge, and a way of knowing, all organized around the principle that it is possible, and perhaps preferable, to play music without established musical knowledge. I investigate how musicians confront hierarchies, both political and epistemological, with an amateurist insistence on their ability to perform without established knowledge. Typically, established musical knowledge conforms to standards and norms of technique, training, or education, which enact a powerful regulation of musical cultures. Through my research, I found that musicians who appear to lack or reject musical knowledge entirely nevertheless rely upon a wealth of subjugated epistemes and that every musical performance draws upon some type of knowledge. I examine four examples of musical amateurism from London and New York City in the 1970s in order to describe the use of amateurism as a political tool to critique epistemological hierarchies. Each example highlights musicians who articulated participation as
