INTRODUCTION

It’s been more than twenty years since the house of CHANEL and Jean-Paul Goude – the celebrated image-maker- started their unique collaboration.
From « Egoïste » for men – his first commercial for CHANEL in the early 90’s – (featuring angry women at their windows shouting their frustration) to « COCO » (in which Vanessa Paradis impersonates a coquettish canary swinging inside it’s cage), these little films remain etched in peoples memories, as masterpieces of advertising history.
This exhibition will present a selection of some of the collaborations that have taken the world by storm, as well as various installations such as a « musical » wall of screens (dedicated to rhythm in movies) and a selection of photographic prints and drawings selected by the artist.
« So Far So Goude » a 90min retrospective film, that provides an overview of his creative work from his childhood to this day, will be presented in a mini theater integrated in the gallery.
