Louis Vuitton presents “Volez, Voguez, Voyagez” at 86 Trinity Place in New York City. The exhibit will be open to the public from October 27, 2017 through January 7, 2018. Curated by Olivier Saillard, the exhibition retraces the adventure of the House of Louis Vuitton from 1854 to the present. The story is told through portraits of its founders, as well as those who are inventing the Louis Vuitton of tomorrow. This historic journey, designed by Robert Carsen, is divided into ten chapters, one of which is entirely devoted to the United States and New York City. The tour opens with the most symbolic object of the House: the trunk, a model fashioned with contemporary flair, embodying the iconic hallmarks and bold spirit of Louis Vuitton. The exhibition features objects and documents from the Louis Vuitton heritage archives, as well as select articles on loan from the Palais Galliera, Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris and the Philharmonie de Paris. The exhibition concludes with a display devoted to the savoir-faire of the artisans in the Louis Vuitton workshops. |
