From the Back Cover
Published in conjunction with the exhibition Masquerade, Make-up & Ensor at MoMu - Fashion Museum Antwerp, this book celebrates the craftsmanship and creativity of make-up and hair artists: the painters of fashion.
Belgian artist James Ensor's ideas about masquerade, vanity, seduction, deception and the transient are explored from a contemporary perspective. Throughout history, make-up has been viewed with suspicion and compared to the wearing of a mask: a mask to hide one's true face. Ensor’s work prompts a number of universal questions:
- Why do we wear masks?
- Why do we fear visible ageing?
- How do we navigate ever-changing beauty ideals?
This book investigates the profound connections between make-up and the many facets of our humanity.

Hardback. Condition: New. Masquerade, Make-up and Ensor transposes Ensor's ideas around the masquerade, (false) coquetry, seduction, deception, the artificial and the ephemeral to today. MoMu (Fashion Museum Antwerp) celebrates the painters of fashion: the craftsmanship and inexhaustible creativity of make-up and hair artists in a book where light, colour, art, fashion and make-up meet. Make-up and beauty have today become a trillion-dollar industry that confronts man with his physical mortality, imagined imperfections and existential fears. But make-up, like paint, is also a form of personal expression, artistic experimentation, joy and freedom. Masquerade, Make-up and Ensor explores how closely make-up is intertwined with many aspects of our humanity. Seller Inventory # LU-9789401427067
