Jean Paul Gaultier Exhibition in Montreal - June 17th to October 2nd

I just got word the other day that the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts is hosting an exhibit dedicated to Jean Paul Gaultier titled The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier: From the Sidewalk to the Catwalk.
This exhibit is more of an installation than a retrospective. It looks at the career of the french designer and his impact he had on the world (both within the industry and society).  Also, this exhibit features 140 ensembles as well as various documents. Furthermore, it features more technological innovation in displaying his work, such has animated mannequins (http://www.mmfa.qc.ca/en/expositions/exposition_153.html)

This exhibit definitely looks amazing. I love JPG and I will be making plans to go see this exhibition in the very near future. Stay tuned for pictures :)

  3. Well it looks like I won't be going anytime soon, I have a trip to Lebanon for a month and a concert to go to...so my funds are a bit low so I might just go after my trip. At least it gives me something to look forward to.
