Hello,
Have any of you heard about the new exhibit at the Monde Arabe in Paris called Orient-Hermès?
More info here http://www.imarabe.org/exposition-ima-1701 and http://www.premiereclasse.com/event/en/orient-hermes-exhibition-540124.html
Through the window display.
The exhibition Orient-Hermès at the Institute du Monde Arabe (Institute of the Arab World) honours Leïla Menchari, who has been for many years the inspiration behind the famously spectacular window displays of the Hermès store at 24 Rue Faubourg Saint Honoré.
This exhibition looks at eight major window displays created by Leïla Menchari for Hermès. Inspired by childhood memories of Tunisia, and her various travels and encounters, Leïla Menchari assembles theatrical displays which feature artisan skills from around the Mediterranean.
Throughout the exhibition, mosaicists, metalworkers, glassblowers, stonecutters and Hermès saddlers will make appearances at the IMA to display their skills and accompany Menchari's displays in the crossroads of cultures between the fashion design house Hermès and the Mediterranean tradition.
This exhibition is supported by Hermès.
With: Leïla Menchari
