Louis Vuitton opened the doors to the Louis Vuitton Art Déco exhibition in Paris on September 26, marking the 100th anniversary of the International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts in 1925.
This immersive presentation revisits the House’s participation in the historic moment which helped define the Art Déco and spotlights the legacy of Gaston-Louis Vuitton, the founder’s grandson.
Since its founding in 1854, Louis Vuitton has combined utility, excellence and refinement in trunks and travel accessories, underscoring a deep admiration for superb craftsmanship. In the early 20th century Gaston-Louis Vuitton integrated his artistic sensibility into the aesthetic of the House, collaborating with artists and designers such as Pierre-Émile Legrain, Camille Cless-Brothier and Gaston Le Bourgeois. This élan led to the Éditions d'art partnerships featured in Louis Vuitton’s memorable presentation at the 1925 exhibition.
A century later, Louis Vuitton Art Déco reaffirms the deep connection between the House and the Art Deco movement by proposing a unique experience. The exhibition showcases the heritage of the House, the technical ingenuity of its creations, the inspirations behind La Beauté Louis Vuitton, and Art Deco’s international influence, featuring both pieces from the archives and contemporary creations.
The exhibition plays out across eight rooms with over 300 heritage objects and archival materials, many never before shown publicly.
The immersive experience continues at Le Café Maxime Frédéric at Louis Vuitton, which proposes a Culinary Journey with a new menu of savory options, exquisite pastries, signature cocktails and barista special cafés, all based on iconic offerings from the Café Maxime Frédéric at Louis Vuitton.
