introducing ruben toledo


ruben toledo | illustrator

Toledo loves fashion, but he is also wonderfully cynical in the best sense of the boulevardier, the same role he assumes in lilfe, walking amidst the fashion world with a dandy's fascination and poise.' (Richard Martin)
Rubem Toledo paints, sculpts, illustrates and draws. His work has been exhibited in museums such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the textile museum at the Louvre and the museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology. He has also produced murals for an exhibition, curated by Richard Martin, on the shifting wasitline in dress at the Costume Institute.
