Fashion is this century's art
As the British Telegraph reported, the National Portrait Gallery is going to host Face of Fashion, over 100 portrait photographs from the fashion world, in order to show that fashion is indeed today's art:
"More than 100 images of Moss, Madonna, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Justin Timberlake, Sharon Stone and a host of models will be displayed in an attempt to prove the gallery's new thesis - that fashion photographs are the new portraiture.
The images, by six of the world's top fashion photographers - Corinne Day, Steven Klein, Paolo Roversi, Mario Sorrenti and Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott - were all taken for magazines such as Vogue, Pop, The Face and W since 1990."

I see how these photos might be interesting, and I definitely understand that those photographers are really artists, but some are complaining that Kate Moss for one isn't suitable to be presented side by side with Britain's prime ministers, kings and queens.

I say: Kate Moss, such as is, shows a very important and true face of fashion. In my opinion, photos of Kate Moss show all the chic and the misery of fashion. There's drugs, there's haute couture, there's sickly-thin. Art always interprets the reality doesn't it?
