Giorgio Armani - Empire of the Senses

The first monograph to do so, Giorgio Armani: Empire of the Senses examines the visual, material, phenomenological, spatial, discursive, and economic culture of Giorgio Armani and his lifestyle empire. The book explores how Armani''s designs and decisions provide a surface on and through which to mediate acts of translation: from East to West; from fashion to art; from one gendered identity to another; and from two-dimensional image to three-dimensional object.
