RErun

after our meeting on Thursday i thought i would upload all the images and information i researched on Bridget Riley and fashion trying to put it in to a a power point but doesn't want to work !
below is a few images and text that i will place into PowerPoint when i get it working:

Bridget Riley took the world of fashion by storm but not by choice !
Her work was used and interpreted into many items of clothing and furniture and the swinging sixties was awash with her work.
Not since the 1920's had fashion changed so radically with a growing teenage revolution in the making music, film ,clothing and culture in London formed the sixties into what we know now !
There was no more dressing like you parents a sense of style was created and Bridget Riley's trippy designs were used as the pattern.

The Mod look was about looking to the future sharp, bold and minimalist prints MOD-ernist
The monochrome geometric prints of Op Art perfectly complemented the bold shapes of the mod look

(image 2)

As Op Art and the artists at the movement’s forefront gained recognition; the youth culture explosion of the sixties was gaining momentum. Mod bands such as The Who crossed over to the U.S. and everyone wanted a piece of The London Look

Just a roughly outline of what i will talk about images will be added later hope this is OK ?
