Yves Saint Laurent aux Musée

To celebrate the 60th anniversary of the house of Yves Saint Laurent, the late couturier’s creations will be displayed at six major Paris museums alongside some of the art works that inspired them.

On January 29 the art exhibition “YVES SAINT LAURENT AUX MUSÉES” will convene six Parisian museums: the Centre Pompidou, the Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris, the Musée du Louvre, the Musée d’Orsay, the Musée National Picasso-Paris and the Musée Yves Saint Laurent Paris, and delve into the profound inspirational bond the couturier had with art and French public museums.

The exhibition will foster a dialogue between a selection of garments, including some of the couturier’s most iconic designs, and the permanent collections of six prominent Parisian museums.

The art show celebrates both Saint Laurent’s mastery and, in general, the art itself and the tentacular scale of the project makes it possible to link the fashion world with artistic realms.
