Furnished exclusively by <em>Memphis Milano<\/em>,<em>Ettore Sottsass<\/em>&#8216;s famous design house, the apartment was a veritable artistic manifesto. Today, <em>Francesco Vezzoli<\/em>, an Italian artist renowned for his work blending memory and fiction, has seized upon this heritage with an exceptional exhibition at the <em>Almine Rech<\/em> gallery in Monaco.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>An exhibition between tribute and recreation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>The Milan-based artist, passionate about storytelling and cultural misappropriation, offers a reinterpretation of <em>Lagerfeld<\/em>&#8216;s legendary apartment, based on a <em>faithful reproduction of furniture<\/em> from the Memphis movement. To complete this immersion, he uses embroidered shots of the couturier, a technique already explored in his previous works devoted to twentieth-century icons. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>Karl Lagerfeld and Memphis: an aesthetic revolution<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>When <em>Karl Lagerfeld<\/em> moved into <em>Roccabella<\/em>, a building designed by <em>Gi\u00f2 Ponti<\/em>, he made a bold choice by adopting <em>Sottsass<\/em>&#8216; radical aesthetic. Gone were the classic gildings and moldings, replaced by bright colors and disconcerting geometric shapes. Perceived at the time as a <em>thumbing of the nose at convention<\/em>, this decor reflects the couturier&#8217;s non-conformist spirit. As <em>Paloma Picasso<\/em> points out, this interior was an artistic <em>&#8220;pirouette<\/em> &#8220;, reflecting Lagerfeld&#8217;s insatiable quest for renewal.   <\/p>\n\n<p>\ud83d\udccd On view from March 20 to May 24, 2025, at the Almine Rech Monaco gallery.<\/p>\n\n<p>Also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parisselectbook.com\/en\/2025\/02\/09\/francois-ozon-adapts-camuss-letranger-for-the-big-screen\/\">Fran\u00e7ois Ozon adapts Camus&#8217;s L&#8217;\u00c9tranger for the big screen<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Francesco Vezzoli revisits the world of Karl Lagerfeld in a unique exhibition, to be staged in Monaco in 2025.
