Virgule, etc. In the footsteps of Roger Vivier
Until 18/11/2013
Palais De Tokyo- Paris
The exhibition, curated by Olivier Saillard is designed as a pastiche of a museum dedicated to shoes. It reaffirms the archetypal elements of the Louvre or the Prado, drawing on Roger Vivier’s inspirations. A taste of Africa, for the Orient , the 18th century, French and English artists – these are all themes that the shoemaker shared with the most venerable art institutions. Visitors will be taken on a journey through a landscape of showcases, reminiscent of the 19th century and with the dated charm of conserved, historical objects. More an inventor than a shoemaker, Roger Vivier began his career in the 1930s and the 140 models exhibited at the Palais de Tokyo retrace this path.
