ANOTHER YEAR AROUND THE SUN

As we close out on 2021, here at The Antonio Archives we’re looking back at the year with deep appreciation for the creative projects we’ve undertaken. From launching our e-shop and blog, to participating in exhibitions across the globe, to our pinch-me moment in Milan as Antonio & Juan’s artwork walked down the runway for Fendi, we can’t help but be humbled by the continued support we receive in bringing the life and legacy of these two extraordinary artists to new audiences.

We wish you all a happy holiday season and a joyous new year.

WORLD AIDS DAY

Yesterday marked World AIDS Day, a day in which we unite to show support for people living with HIV and to commemorate those who have died from AIDS-related illness.

In an effort to raise awareness and funds, we are once again honored to participate in PHOTO21: A Photo Auction to benefit the AIDS Monument & Project Angel Food, which will take place on December 9, 2021 in Los Angeles.

Donation, ticket, and auction information can be found at the link below.

NEW TO THE BLOG

On this day in 1975, Fashion as Fantasy debuted at the Rizzoli bookshop gallery in New York City. In this month’s blog post we celebrate the anniversary of this little known yet highly influential exhibition that brought together luminaries from the worlds of art and fashion.

MUST HAVE FASHION

Give the gift of fashion history this year with a poster, catalogue or special Kodak Instamatic from our e-shop. Our limited collection of original works and ephemera include iconic illustrations such as this Missoni Autumn Winter 1983/84 collection campaign poster featuring models Paul Qualley and Maria Snyder in a lush matte finish.
