Retaining the fusion of fashion and contemporary art for which Scoop is famed, this season’s show will be a carefully curated edit of over 250 womenswear collections showcased around the Saatchi Gallery’s latest exhibition, From Selfie
to Self-Expression.

In partnership with Huawei, the world’s number three smartphone brand, From Selfie to Self-Expression will explore the history of the selfie from the old masters to the present day, and celebrate the truly creative potential of a form of expression often derided for
its inanity.

From Selfie to Self-Expression will include key artworks, many of which feature interactive, digital and user-generated content by artists as diverse as Kutlug Ataman, Christopher Baker, Juno Calypso, Tracey Emin, Van Gogh, Mohau Modisakeng, Rembrandt, Cindy Sherman, Gavin Turk and Velazquez.

Showing alongside examples of many influential artists’ work will be selfies that have quickly become icons of the digital era – from the beautiful and sublime to the mad, bad and downright dangerous.
