As an architecture student-turn-fashion designer, Virgil Abloh has famously straddled the line between the two professions. An exhibition of his work, which has been described as 'ultramodern' and 'genre-bending,' will highlight this Interdisciplinarity at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago (MCA), starting June 10th.
The exhibition will be designed in part by Samir Bantal, the director of AMO, OMA’s research wing, and curated by Michael Darling. Bantal has expressed that the exhibition will focus on the different worlds Virgil moves in: Architecture, Fashion, Design, Music and Art. After the show's opening, there are plans for it to travel internationally and become part of an ongoing collaboration between AMO and Abloh.
AMO has previously provided creative input for exhibitions on fashion, including those for Prada and Miu Miu.
