Sorry! Your blogger from Helsinki has been silent for a
while, because she has been living in Paris for three weeks.
So here come my impressions of the Parisian art scene. Challenging,
yes. Interesting, definitely. But sometimes it is like an amusement park, a mixture of danger and cotton candy, which
makes you feel happy and dizzy.
Palais de
Tokyo presents a lot of works by interesting artists under the theme
Saison 2 Imaginez l´imaginaire. It
is about art in construction, and really - the whole museum seems to be a
construction site.
Fabrice
Hyber, Das Wunderkind of the French art world, shows there Raw
Materials – well, all kind of things starting from his early student lipstick works
to rotting vegetables and his famous green men.
Le
mur escalier (2012), the turning staircase by Huber,
is happily tested by
young and even older visitors.
Fashion is an important part of French culture and a firm statement
in the daily life.
Musée d´Orsay shows L'impressionnisme et la mode, a huge
collection of famous paintings, museum piece dresses and accessories. Go there to
see the art of fashion and the fashion as an art.
Dress by Phoebe Philo, laser cut and stitched
toile,
Chloé A/W 2006-07 collection.
More fashion you see in
Palais de Tokyo where Chloé. Attitudes is ”a celebration
of the Maison’s 60-year contribution to fashion culture.”
It tells the history
of fashion house with it´s famous designers and shows a big amount of the
original pieces for example by Karl Lagerfeld who was a in-house designer some decades
ago.
That is enough for today, more to come!
