A new exhibition in Paris juxtaposes YSL's creations with specially commissioned works by contemporary artist Claudia Wieser.
“I don’t like my works shown in isolation, in the most neutral spaces possible, but prefer that they dialogue with the venue and the context in which they are placed,” added the German artist, who is known for her Modernist-inspired geometric constructions.
Optical illusions and geometrical shapes, like a pillbox hat made of two stacked cubes, illustrate his skill in transposing abstract compositions into living, breathing garments.act from the music-hall show “Zizi Je t’aime!,” directed by Roland Petit at the Casino de Paris, 1972.
Among the sketches on show are Saint Laurent’s costume designs for choreographer Roland Petit’s 1967 production of “Notre-Dame de Paris” for the Paris Opera Ballet. His fashion sketches use techniques ranging from ink to pastel, illustrating his passion for drawing. Janssen said that just as Saint Laurent’s creations popularized the work of artists such as Piet Mondrian in the ‘60s, this exhibition aims to provide a platform for Wieser’s art.
