"We do not know how to give an answer to the discussion about whether fashion is art, but it is in this collaboration between the Spanish designer María Escoté and the gallerist Fer Francés where we find a rendezvous point.
Frescoté is the name of the new project between them. Maria Escoté’s designs for women are characterized by being colorful and vibrant. Fer Francés is the most younger curator in Madrid and runs Javier López and Fer Francés Gallery, specialized in contemporary art. Their new label have just launched a capsule collection based on the work of the painter Matías Sánchez that will be available in the online store of María Escoté. Sweatshirts, t-shirts, bombers, knitted jumpers and pants make up the first collection of Frescoté designed for menswear mainly.
The presentation of the collaboration took place in Madrid within the framework of ARCO, the International Contemporary Art Fair. The event of art per excellence in Madrid, was the occasion where the designer and the gallerist made clear their purpose: joining fashion and art under the name of ‘Frescoté’, a project in which fashion is honored by colors, geometries and brushstrokes through different plastic arts." - Fuckingyoung.es
