There Is No Place Like Camp


Book Description

"During one particular tour . . . I was showing the camp to a lovely couple with two children. We passed the skateboard park/tennis courts/soccer area to get to the boating/fishing center. As I explained to the parents our boating program, a magnificent hawk appeared over our heads on the boating dock, and at the same time, a beautiful swan swam to almost meet us, and as we turned around two majestic deer stopped in their tracks frightened to see us . . . We waited a little bit, amazed at the natural beauty of it all; we walked up the trail and ten turkeys startled us all! Both parents quipped to me at the same time . . . can I go to camp too?"

Camp


Book Description

"Indeed, the essence of Camp is its love of the unnatural: of artifice and exaggeration." —Susan Sontag, 1964 Although an elusive concept, "camp" can be found in most forms of artistic expression, revealing itself to be a complex aesthetic that challenges the status quo. As an expression of the playful dynamics between high art and popular culture, fashion both embraces and flaunts such camp modes as irony, humor, parody, pastiche, artifice, theatricality, and exaggeration. Drawing from Susan Sontag’s seminal 1964 essay "Notes on 'Camp'," this multifaceted publication presents the sartorial manifestations of the camp sensibility while contributing new theoretical and conceptual insights to the camp canon through texts and images. Stunning new photography by Johnny Dufort highlights works by exceptional fashion designers including Thom Browne, John Galliano, Jean Paul Gaultier, Marc Jacobs, Karl Lagerfeld, Alessandro Michele, Franco Moschino, Yves Saint Laurent, Jeremy Scott, Anna Sui, Gianni Versace, and Vivienne Westwood.
