Gaultier / from the Sidewalk to the Catwalk Press Release JEAN PAUL GAULTIER / FROM THE SIDEWALK TO THE CATWALK 18.9.2015 – 14.2.2016 Kunsthalle der Hypo-Kulturstiftung Theatinerstrasse 8 | 80333 Munich T + 49 (0)89 / 22 44 12 | [email protected] www.kunsthalle-muc.de The Kunsthalle celebrates its first fashion presentation, its 30th anniversary and its 100th exhibition with Jean Paul Gaultier. This comprehensive show pays homage to Gaultier’s diverse and fascinating oeuvre. For the past 40 years, the French couturier, dubbed the enfant terrible of the international fashion, has been one of the most influential designers of contemporary fashion. More than any other, his bold and ironic creations have repeatedly challenged our concept of fashion and beauty. Throughout his career, Gaultier (born in 1952) has made it his mission to challenge conventional views on the social roles of fashion, while audaciously extending the fundamental manufacturing principles of fashion design. He uses a wide range of materials like feathers, crystals, animal skins, jet stones, metal cans or rubber – often in unconventional combinations – for his avant- garde creations, which are finished with superb Peter Lindbergh: Jean Paul Gaultier & Nadja Auermann, Paris, workmanship by his Paris couture atelier. Besides 2015. © Peter Lindbergh Studio, Paris / Gagosian Gallery this city, he finds inspiration in a variety of sources: Gaultier’s close cooperation with artists like Pierre from his celebration of different cultures – from et Gilles, Peter Lindbergh, Cindy Sherman and geishas to toreros – the world of pop and mass Andy Warhol is presented in extensive artistic media to the trends of subcultures like London and documentary film material, videos and punks or New Wave. photographs. Exclusively for the Munich venue, An openly gay fashion designer, he claims as Peter Lindbergh shot the lead images for poster his social ideal the right to be different and live and catalogue featuring Jean Paul Gaultier and according to one’s own individual identity. Gaultier Nadja Auermann. rose to fame with his kilt-like skirts for men, The show is not a mere fashion retrospective but a challenging conventional gender stereotypes and poetic contemporary installation: with the strong engrained fashion codes. Without a shadow of a social message we find in his work, the exhibition doubt, the designer has achieved cult status – both embraces various arts and reflects the spirit of in haute couture and in popular culture. Gaultier in an opulent extravaganza. The exhibition presents some 160 of his creations, The exhibition is organized by the Montreal dating from the early 1970s up to now. In addition Museum of Fine Arts in collaboration with Maison to his haute couture and prêt-à-porter designs, Jean Paul Gaultier and the Kunsthalle Munich. the show includes costumes produced for Pedro Almodóvar’s films and stage outfits for popstars, The Kunsthalle Munich is supported by like the famous bustier worn by Madonna in 1990 that caused a stir on her Blond Ambition Tour. Apart from the Queen of Pop, also Kylie Minogue and many other stars have loaned their Gaultier pieces Premium Partner: to be included in the exhibition. Partner: Media Partner: PARIS The exhibition features seven chapters that present some 160 creations covering Gaultier’s entire career: The Salon As a boy, Gaultier loved spending time in his grandmother’s beauty salon. He was fascinated by the old-fashioned charm of her garments – particularly by the corset, which was to become a recurrung motive in his oeuvre. Numerous stars have worn versions of his corsets with concentrically top-stitched bra cups, including Madonna during her legendary 1990 Blond Ambition Tour. The Odyssey Adventure on the high seas invokes a world of essential and recurrent figures in Gaultier’s collec- tions, where sailors frolic with mermaids, sirens and nymphs – the ultimate embodiment of masculine and feminine seduction. They are confronted with variations of madonna figures, usually representing virginity as opposed to the libidinous chimerae of the ocean. Nevertheless, at the same time, Gaultier imparts them an alluring air of lasciviousness. The Muses The designer invites celebrities onto his catwalk who do not correspond to the prevailing canon of beauty, like Beth Ditto, the plus-size singer of the rock band Gossip. He breaks with social norms that define garments according to gender, by combining feminine and masculine attire or dressing men in women’s clothes and vice versa. It is only fitting that Gaultier was the first couturier to sign up androgynous models like Tanel Bedrossiantz. Also his cooperation with Conchita Wurst is presented here. Metropolis The metropolis is a melting pot where the flamboyant world of fashion meets the spectacular shows of cinema and television, music and dance. Gaultier has designed costumes for the stage, opera and cinema; for films like The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover (1989) by Peter Greenaway, Kika (1993), Bad Education (2003) and The Skin I Live In (2011) by Pedro Almodóvar, The City of Lost Children (1995) by Marc Caro and Jean- Pierre Jeunet and The Fifth Element (1997) by Luc Besson. In 2002, the film connoisseur became the first couturier to sit on the jury of the Cannes Film Festival. Urbain Jungle Gaultier creates a new aesthetic in which the garment personifies the dialogue between different cultures and ethnicities, thereby transcending geographical frontiers, religious beliefs and linguistic barriers. He creates hybrids, mixing the urban and the wild, the traditional and the modern, the animal and the sophisticated. A bullfighter’s bolero, shtreimels and dark sweeping rabbinical cloaks, a geisha’s kimono, a Mongolian jacket, flamenco skirts and African masks all have their place in Gaultier’s world. Punk cancan Gaultier renders a multifaceted image of Paris that draws on various eras. He is fascinated by the Paris of the Belle Époque around 1900, home to Toulouse-Lautrec and the Moulin Rouge. While paying homage to post-war icons like Juliette Gréco, he also taps into the everyday aesthetic of Parisiennes, from the concierge to the fine bourgeois lady. The couturier reinterprets symbols and clichés that he grew up with: the Eiffel tower, a beret, the trenchcoat. In stark contrast to the elegance of the French capital, the teenage Gaultier was enthralled by London’s Punks. He combines their unconventional attire – latex, leather, lace, tartan, safety pins, studs and metal spikes – with the delicate feathers, boas and frills of the French cancan. Skin deep and X-rated Gaultier’s collections explore the concepts of gender, nudity and eroticism. In many respects, the human body forms the basis of his work. Gaultier’s unusual approach to materials flouts the aesthetic norms for prêt-à-porter and haute couture. His universe has a liberal scattering of allusions to sexual practices like bondage, domination and submission. The Brides It’s a tradition to close an haute couture presentation with a wedding dress. In the fashion world it is considered a great honour for a model to be chosen by the couturier to wear the wedding dress and close the show. Inspired by a whole variety of sources, Gaultier’s brides frequently break away from the “princess image” that is associated with the role.

The Material Girl’s MDNA tour essentially runs the gamut from long time collaborators and new partners, fashion designers, retailers and artists along with dazzling elements of Swarovski crystals. “I see Madonna as one of the greatest performing artists and entertainers of our generation,” commented Phillips, a two time Oscar nominee, who has collaborated with Madonna for over l5 years and four tours. The wardrobe reflects new twists on familiar themes including spirituality, prophecy, light, super-vixen, Americana/sassy, majorette with a message, masculine, feminine, redemption and celebration. With styles including Truth or Dare lingerie with crosses, colorful metal mesh tee shirts, specially designed accessories including gargoyle and bunny masks, Brooks Brothers shirts and canes, swords, gun holsters, jeweled accessories, mirrored track suits, Lord of War tee shirts, Phillips designed Joan of Arc ensembles, a majorette costume with a l940’s inspired silhouette and Shaolin warrior costumes, fashionistas will easily find a wide range of styles and likely some new trends.

    The House of an Artist Recognized as one of the world’s most celebrated perfumers, Francis Kurkdjian has created over the past 20 years more than 40 world famous perfumes for fashion houses such as Dior, Kenzo, Burberry, Elie Saab, Armani, Narciso Rodriguez… Instead of settling comfortably into the beginnings of a brilliant career started with the creation of ”Le Mâle” for Jean Paul Gaultier in 1993, he opened the pathways to a new vision. He was the first in 2001 to open his bespoke fragrances atelier, going against the trend of perfume democratization. He has created gigantic olfactory installations in emblematic spaces, making people dream with his ephemeral and spectacular perfumed performances. All this, while continuing to create perfumes for world famous fashion brands and designers, as fresh as ever. Maison Francis Kurkdjian was a natural move in 2009, born from the encounter between Francis Kurkdjian and Marc Chaya, Co-founder and President of the fragrance house. Together, they fulfilled their desire for a sensual, generous and multi-facetted landscape of free expression, creating a new emblem of French know-how and lifestyle. A high-end fragrance house Maison Francis Kurkdjian’s unique personality is fostered by the creative power of a man who has a taste for precision. The Maison is guided by enchanting yet precise codes: purity, sophistication, timelessness and the boldness of a classicism reinvented. Designed in the tradition of luxury French perfumery, the Maison Francis Kurkdjian collection advocates nevertheless a contemporary vision of the art of creating and wearing perfume. Francis Kurkdjian creations were sketched like a fragrance wardrobe, with myriad facets of emotions.

  • The Vulgar Fashion Redefined
    The Vulgar Fashion Redefined Barbican Art Gallery, London, UK 13 October 2016 – 5 February 2017 Media View: Wednesday 12 October, 10am –1pm Supported by Agent Provocateur #thevulgar “Vulgarity exposes the scandal of good taste” – Adam Phillips Potent, provocative and sometimes shocking, the word vulgar conjures up strong images, ideas and feelings in us all. The Vulgar: Fashion Redefined is the first exhibition to consider this inherently challenging but utterly compelling territory of taste. It both questions notions of vulgarity in fashion while revelling in its excesses, inviting the visitor to think again about exactly what makes something vulgar and why it is such a sensitive and contested term. Drawn from major public and private collections worldwide, with contributions from leading modern and contemporary designers such as Walter Van Beirendonck, Manolo Blahnik, Christian Dior, Iris van Herpen, Pam Hogg, Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton, Stephen Jones, Christian Lacroix, Karl Lagerfeld for Chloé and CHANEL, Alexander McQueen for Givenchy, Prada, Jeremy Scott for Moschino, Philip Treacy, Viktor & Rolf and Vivienne Westwood. The Vulgar opens at Barbican Art Gallery on 13 October 2016. Conceived by exhibition-maker Judith Clark and psychoanalyst Adam Phillips, the exhibition takes fascinating literary definitions of ‘the vulgar’ as a starting point and includes a wealth of over 120 stunning exhibits from the Renaissance through to the 21st century. Weaving together historic dress, couture and ready-to-wear fashion, textile ornamentation, manuscripts, photography and film, this carefully crafted installation illustrates how taste is a mobile concept: what was once associated with vulgarity is reconjured by designers to become the height of fashion.

A frequenter of gay clubs in London, he typically incorporates elements of gay style into his collections. His 1996 Pin Up Boys collection, for example, drew upon the sailor as a gay icon and presented figure-hugging pink and blue Tom of Finland style outfits. Born on April 24, 1952 in Arcueil, France, Gaultier was an only child who spent his youth struggling to escape the influence of his parents, who were both accountants and who hoped that their son would become a Spanish teacher. The future designer was greatly influenced by his grandmother, Marie Garrabe, a hypnotist and practitioner of alternative healing who encouraged him to pursue the unmanly pastimes of sketching and costume making. Gaultier first realized the impact of his sketches when he was punished by his school teacher for drawing Folies Bergère showgirls. He was made to walk around school with the drawing pinned to his back. The punishment, however, only made the young Gaultier aware of his potential for showmanship. Gaultier had no formal fashion training. Instead, he sent hundreds of his sketches to various couture houses.
