Шаблон:Short description The Hygienic Dress League, also known as HDL, is an American art duo founded by Dorota Coy and Steve Coy. Operating as a corporation,[1] the group is known for their public artworks in the Detroit, Michigan area.[2]

History

The duo first met in Hawaii, where they were married.[3] They then moved to Detroit, where the group's first activities involved tagging abandoned buildings with graphics related to the Hygienic Dress League Corporation.[3] In recent years, the group has made a change from these "urban interventions" towards sculptural instillations that they consider to be "surreal augmentations of reality".[1]

Founded in 2007, the group held a public offering of shares in 2014.[4] Using their status as a corporation as their art medium,[2] the group brands themselves with golden gas masks and animals.[1] The pair have stated that the goal of HDL is to critique commercial promotion, by promoting itself.[5][2][6]
