Luxury and art are two closely linked subjects. Most major luxury houses associate themselves with contemporary art through sponsorships, commissions, or foundations, and these points of exchange only nourish the relationships between fashion, art and design.
Louis Vuitton is one of the luxury brands that maintains some of the richest and most varied associations with the art world. Louis Vuitton: Art, Fashion & Architecture, a new book coming out on 22 September, 2009 by Rizzoli, spotlights some of Louis Vuitton’s most important and most visible collaborations with artists, architects, designers and photographers. The book also includes essays examining Louis Vuitton’s support under the guidance of Artistic Director Marc Jacobs during one of the most blossoming periods of contemporary art and design.
Under the artistic direction of Camille Scherrer, watch the book come to life here.
