SORGENFRI has invited a group of independent Norwegian artists, working in-between art and fashion to select their prime works to show during a group exhibition in SORGENFRI 18th – 21st of August.

Since art reflects who we are, further we dress to express a feeling or statement; fashion is an art form. The works on display are all wearable art pieces. Curated to show that the designers in question fuel the future world of fashion and our ‘cultural aesthetics’, but yet make clothes still to be used and loved every day. The aim is to give an engaging and old school depth, yet progressive way of thinking, to today’s retail and e-commerce.

Creating a less expected scene more adapted to each customer’s needs; some garments are one of a kind, some can be bought immediately, and some garments are made upon your order. ARTWEAR urges a more honest and knowledgeable approach towards design and fashion, showing that so much talent gets absorbed by a very commercial retail market. 

ARTWEAR is an important statement of the SORGENFRI way of thinking, crediting the art within fashion and still tell the audience that avant-garde fashion are clothes to be worn.

The space will be completely transformed according to the beliefs of ARTWEAR with a deep respect to the space’s philosophy; to give customers easy access to long-living design products and one-of-a-kind pieces.
