History.
When Bernadette Corporation first formed, they were hired to organize parties at downtown nightclubs. They quickly began making fashion and took part in the world of 1990s underground fashion. In the 1990s, their clothes were published in "Harper's Bazaar", "Purple", "Visionaire", "Index Magazine", and "Artforum". They take influences from the "three Bs"; Barthes, Bataille and Baudrillard.
In the late 1990s, Bernadette Corporation became more productive as a publishing, film, and video group, briefly publishing the magazine "Made in USA", named after the Jean-Luc Godard film of the same name.
In 2001 Bernadette Corporation temporarily merged with Le Parti Imaginaire to make the film "Get Rid of Yourself", which retains both fiction and documentary elements. The Bernadette Corporation's other films include; "The B.C. Corporate Story," "Hell Frozen Over," and "Get Rid of Yourself."
