FETISH by DAVID LYNCH with CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN (Shoes, 2007)until November 3rd, 2007

Last week, I missed the opening preview night for one of the most interesting and exciting artistic collaboration : the FETISH exhibition by David LYNCH and Christian LOUBOUTIN (the famous women's shoemaker).
A mix of amazing pictures and extraordinary shoes.

The work of Mr LOUBOUTIN is based upon the fetishism and the sexual myth surrounding women shoes. He started to collab with Mr LYNCH for his FONDATION CARTIER exhibition, and then he asked to the famous director to take pictures of his latest creation. The meeting of those two genius is the purpose of FETISH.

LOUBOUTIN says about shoes "People sees only shoes as walking or running items... But there are shoes that are made for sex. Women shoes are the ultimate sexual tool, even without heel..."

Each picture of Mr LYNCH will be made at only 5 ex. signed and numeroted, sold at 12000 euros. And each shoes by Mr LOUBOUTIN will also be sold at 12000 euros, and made at 5 ex by pair.

« David Lynch m’avait demandé de dessiner des souliers pour son exposition à la Fondation Cartier. Il peignit certains d’entre eux pour les montrer dans une cage. A mon tour, j’ai voulu lui demander d’en photographier d’autres, que j’aurai conçus dans ce but."
