For her solo exhibition in Galerie van Gelder Sylvie Fleury made a drawing ad hoc in which is shown how she wanted to have the VOGUE edition spread out all over the gallery walls. The small squares in the drawing refer to the artist’s idea.

During the Hugo Boss launch in 1999 of Sylvie Fleury’s Formula One Dress dress fashion models walked around who drank wine, champagne and the like. Quite a few dresses came out of this with stains. More than two decades later to find a dress in this never-used and pristine condition is a rarity.
Most of the time the black and white BIG BAG protection bag is lacking.

A recurrent contamination of the masculine world and the feminine, of fashion and art or advertising is seen in the works of Sylvie Fleury. In the early nineties she showed in her first exhibition with John M Armleder and Olivier Mosset a pile of empty Coco Chanel boxes intuitively collected by her for years, because of its attractiveness as she once said. Her installations with shopping bags triggered people to call her the ‘Bag Lady’ at a certain point. Nowadays her work is described as political, but definitively her oeuvre does not lack a post-conceptual attitude at all. With the multiple ‘Slim-Fast’ she shows that the idea is very close to how the artist originally was attracted by the Coco Chanel mascara and perfume boxes, only now more rationally made with a tongue-in-cheek to Pop-art.

This is the first catalogue of Sylvie Fleury designed as if it is a fashion magazine. Due to its Lümbeck binding and aging of the glue almost all copies collapsed into a bunch of loose pages when used. Hence extremely rare.
