Workshop is a monograph compiling photographs, notes, sketches and texts on the work of fashion designer and artist Susan Cianciolo. With highly collaborative methods, use of improvisation and performance, and deconstructed clothes, Cianciolo formed a radical challenge to the corporatisation of the fashion world in the 1990s. Tracing her artistic career from her cult, acclaimed RUN clothing label of 1995-2001, through to her later films, Workshop is the definitive title on a designer way ahead of her time. “‘It’s like couture made by people who really really can’t sew and grandmother master tailors simultaneously,’ a friend offered, as an explanation of how something could seem at once so sophisticated and so willfully naive,” wrote Nick Mauss of Cianciolo’s clothes in a 2015 issue of Artforum.
