The contributions map the development of the curatorial field, from early independent curating in the 1960s and 1970s and the experimental institutional programs developed in Europe and in the USA at this time, through Documenta and the development of biennales.

With texts by Daniel Birnbaum, Christophe Cherix and Hans Ulrich Obrist.

Mode and Mode is a periodical that addresses printed matter in fashion practice. Each issue explores experimental publishing in fashion with an interview around a print-based project at the margins—one that has critical effects to fashion as a discourse—with the aim to level alternative, lesser-known fashion practices with contemporary fashion discourse.

Mode and Mode six ‘Art for All’ featuring an interview with Hans Ulrich Obrist on the publication point d’ironie co-founded with artist Christian Boltanski and agnès b., and a foldout poster created by Kate Meakin and Jessie Kiely.
