Antoni & Alison

United Kingdom  • 1965

Presentation

Antoni Burakowski and Alison Roberts-Jopp are internationally renowned contemporary artists and fashion designers, most famous as Antoni + Alison. Their work explores the relationships between oddly juxtaposed objects and images that would never otherwise have existed together. Often the resulting image contains a strong element of humour completely unrelated to its component parts, but produced as a result of the amalgamation of the two. They met at St. Martins School of Art in London, where Alison studied fine art and Antoni studied fashion. 'From our college days we were blurring the edges of the two disciplines and have continued to do this for the past forty years, we have only ever worked together. We create for 'the individual' and follow our instinct rather than the trend.' Antoni + Alison's clothes are collected and worn by a very diverse range of celebrities and artists worldwide, including Bella Hadid, Chloe Sevigny, Clare Danes, Beth Ditto, Thandiwe Newton, Rachel Whiteread, Nicole Kidman, Kiki Smith, Agnes Deyn, Kate Moss and Katy Perry. In 2008, they were awarded MBE medals by Queen Elizabeth for their services to fashion and photography. Their work exists as a 'Living Archive' at The Victoria & Albert Museum, London and is also in the permanent collection of The Huis Marseille Institute for Photography, Amsterdam and the Citibank Collection, London. They have worked on commissions for the esteemed Wallace Collection, London and have exhibited as far afield as The Photographers' Gallery, London; Paris Photo; The Barbican London and The Museum of Modern Art in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, amongst others.
