With the exhibition Yves Saint Laurent – FORMS, the couturier’s modern and enduring vision is echoed once again. Through a fascinating spatial arrangement, the artist Claudia Wieser engenders a dialogue with textile pieces and graphic art from the museum’s collections.
The exhibition presents some forty models by Yves Saint Laurent–both haute couture and ready-to-wear garments–accessories and sketches, which resonate with the decors and works by the German artist. This original approach undeniably places the couturier’s genius in our times.
Whether with curves or right angles, spheres or broken lines–while paying particular attention to color and form–the German artist Claudia Wieser stages for us a veritable ensemble of forms. Influenced by the intuitive and spiritual work of Wassily Kandinsky and Paul Klee, the artist explores modernist-inspired geometric constructions. Recognized for her immersive and contemplative installations, Wieser offers us a totally immersive experience. For the Yves Saint Laurent – FORMS project, Claudia Wieser presents several of her own works, some of which have never been exhibited before.
