The ModeMuseum (Fashion Museum) of the province of Antwerp has invited the team of designers of A.F. Vandevorst to create an exhibition within the context of Europalia Russia. In Katharina Prospekt, An Vandevorst and Filip Arickx show us their vision of Russia based on the universe of A.F. Vandevorst. The colour red, military uniforms, and religious costumes, but also materials such as leather, fur, and felt are, indeed, important sources of inspiration in their own collections of clothing. These are the elements which guided the two designers in their selection of objects and costumes from the collection of the Museum of History of Moscow. The starting point of the exhibition is a series of objects or images inextricably linked to Russia: Russian matrioshkas or Russian dolls, vodka, the fur hat, the long queues of the Soviet era, the Volga… These stereotypes give a distorted image of contemporary Russia and obscure the diversity of its peoples, cultures, styles, and historical periods. By integrating these clichés into the scenography of the exhibition, A.F. Vandevorst makes us rediscover modern Russia. Like the Russian dolls which hold inside them a series of smaller dolls, the exhibition comprises several dimensions in which the historical collection of clothing of the Museum of History of Moscow is confronted with ever different contexts. “Katharina Prospekt” is situated on the boundary between different styles, historical periods and ideologies.
