Sumario:A critical approach to contemporary luxury studies focusing on aesthetic, design-led and media practice with key case studies. Assembling the foremost scholars in this innovative, distinctive, and expanding subject, internationally well-known critical theorists John Armitage and Joanne Roberts present a ground-breaking aesthetic, design-led and media-related examination of the relations between historical and, crucially, contemporary ideas of luxury. Critical Luxury Studies offers a technoculturally inspired survey of the mediated arts and design, as well as a means of comprehending the socio-economic order with novel philosophical tools and critical methods of interrogation that are re-defining the concept of luxury in the twenty-first century. Case Studies Include. Hiroshi Sugimoto's Silk Shiki for Herm÷s The plain white t-shirt Louis Vuitton Moñt Hennessy (LMVH) Contributors. John Armitage Christopher J. Berry Mary Breheny Jonathan Faiers Mike Featherstone Iain Hay Ulrich Lehmann Juliana Mansvelt Agn÷s Rocamora Joanne Roberts Thomaï Serdari Adam Sharr
