I love fashion because it is a moving, wearable piece of art. It can be subtle or controversial. But it always speaks volumes. Living in Pittsburgh, I am lucky enough to have the magnificent Andy Warhol Museum at my disposal. Which if you are someone who loves modern/contemporary art, it's like an evolving playground.
The last time I visited, the featured exhibit was the profound work of Mr. Shepard Fairey. Some of you may think you've never heard of him, however he is the artist behind the red and blue Obama 2008 campaign portraits. He is a prolific artist whose works have a pop-art feel but a political message. Mr. Fairey's artwork (which is listed under the name Obey Propaganda) is awe inspiring and has a powerful message. Even if you don't agree with his politics, his artwork can definitely be appreciated on an aesthetic level.
