Rapture: Art's Seduction by Fashion by Chris Townsend

Raising questions about identity, style, culture, commerce and beauty, this volume reveals the ambivalent relationship between art and fashion and shows the visual results as artists both succumb to fashion's powerful lure and at the same time recoil from it.
Chris Townsend is a writer, independent curator and lecturer in media arts at Royal Holloway, University of London. His previous publications include the award-winning Vile Bodies: Photography and the Crisis of Looking, plus his new book The Art of Tracey Emin (with Mandy Merck), which will be published by Thames & Hudson this autumn.
