Screens, Costumes, Cities – Identity…
Abstract
Analyzing Wim Wenders’s film on Japanese fashion designer Yohji Yamamoto, Gwóźdź deliberates on the identity of an artist in the electronic media age. The film features the artist who has managed to blend his own sense of identity with the art he creates, that is fashion designing. The movie presents Paris and Tokyo, the cities that comprise the identity. But the film is also a reflection on how the memory of our culture is stored by the three generations of photographic, film and video images.
