At the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, has been set up the exhibition CAMP: notes on fashion (from 9 May to 8 September). I probably won't have the chance to see it, but it has given me the possibility to know the meaning of the word CAMP. The term was coined by the writer Susan Sontag in 1964 and refers to the love for what is artificial, unnatural, for an exaggerated taste. This taste for exasperation has always been linked to an exercise in creativity, but today it is much more spontaneous and goes beyond the world of fashion. Which, however, remains its main expression, able to speak contradictory or different languages through a single object.
