Pop-up Store

Galeries Lafayette, Paris

From 24 July to 22 September 2012, the Galerie des Galeries, the cultural venue of Galeries Lafayette Haussmann, will be playing a new role. Redubbed the Pop-up Store, it will be offering work from the three disciplines that lie at the core of the Galerie des Galeries’s mission: art, fashion and design.
Throughout the delightful presentation created by the designer Julie Pfligersdorffer*, each of these themes resonates forcefully in the display and marketing of novel fashion accessories, limited-edition artworks and designer objects.

The Pop-up Store by the Galerie des Galeries will highlight an original selection of pieces by fashion designers that spring from a genuine artistic process. The participants include the collective Andrea Crews, which works midway between art and fashion, bringing together designers, video artists, musicians and performers.

There is the delightfully quirky jewelry of Ligia Dias which shows influences from multidisciplinary art worlds like architecture, the graphic arts, and design. Bernard Chauveau Éditeur will be showcasing its latest collaborations with David Dubois and Christian Ghion.
And finally, through its presentation of limited-edition works, la Galerie de Multiples carries on its intention to help make contemporary art accessible to a broad audience.
The Pop-up Store by the Galerie des Galeries will also be home to a bookshop featuring a selection of works and magazines with various links to the venue’s program.

*The French designer Julie Pfligersdorffer has created products for Industreal and Ligne Roset, for which she took first prize in the 2010 Cinna design competition. She is represented by Galerie Gosserez and is preparing a show for the gallery that will open sometime in 2013. Since 2009 she has also assisted the designer Pierre Charpin, especially in his most recent projects in exhibition design.
