A Spotty History of Patterns
Manage episode 288707583 series 2890457
From Minnie Mouse to Marilyn Monroe, polka dots are a pattern worn by everyone - and there’s a reason they still haven’t gone out of fashion. We talk to artist Allison McKeen and “Patternalia” author Jude Stewart about how dots have represented everything from disease to modernity, and Leigh Wishner, from the FIDM Museum in LA, explains how (and why) a collection of dots has so much to say.
