Chanel Opens Futuristic Art Exhibit in HK

2016-02-22 08:50

A modern art exhibition consisting of artistic interpretations of the iconic Chanel handbag is open in Hong Kong. The exhibition venue is an art exhibit itself -- a curved pavilion resembling a UFO. The exhibition, called "Mobile art," is in a futuristic, shiny, white pavilion designed by renowned modern architect Zaha Hadid. The artworks inside include a giant sculpture of a black Chanel handbag that encases a video. It's by Swiss artist Sylvie Fleury. There's also a work featuring two stuffed pigs next to encased Chanel handbags. It's called "Jesus Love and 2 Handbags" and it's by Belgian artist Wim Delyoye. Visitors are encouraged to wear headphones to listen to music specifically designed to enhance the artwork. Fabrice Bousteau, Curator of Mobile Art Exhibition said "This exhibition is totally new because it was conceived like a real landscape and a 3-dimensional film which comes to life with visitors and with headphones." The exhibit also features works by artists from South Korea, Iran, Russia and the United States among other countries. Japanese artist Tabaimo designed a black hole with graphic animation. It's her interpretation of unlocking the secrets hidden inside a handbag. Bousteau says the exhibit is intended to be experimental -- and to move art away from the more traditional museum setting. Fabrice Bousteau said "Mobile Art in my view is an expression of utopia and the future. It's a completely weird architectural project because it's the first building in the world which will travel, which will circulate and which is nomadic." The exhibition took four weeks to assemble. It will travel through Asia, the U.S. and Europe. The next stop after Hong Kong is Tokyo.
