Thierry Mugler e la sua moda conquistano il Montreal Museum of Fine Arts

10 Marzo 2019

Sono oltre 150 le opere riunite nel progetto espositivo che ricostruisce il percorso di un designer unico. Provocatore, visionario, avanguardista, rivoluzionario, versatile, Thierry Mugler viene indagato dalla retrospettiva che il Montreal Museum of Fine Arts ospita in anteprima mondiale. Fino all’8 settembre saranno esposti abiti, accessori, costumi di scena, clip e video inediti, documenti d’archivio e schizzi, che permetteranno di apprezzare la carriera di un artista inimitabile. Non solo stilista, Thierry Mugler è anche fotografo e regista.
