Valentino will unveil new windows in selected flagships around the world to elaborate on its spring 2016 season theme of Africa and its culture. For the project, “Connecting Cultures: Windows on the World,” the brand’s creative directors Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli have teamed with gallerist Carmen Moreno, curator of the exhibition “Il Tribale nell’Inconscio del Contemporaneo [‘Tribal in the unconsciousness of the contemporary’]” and the Italian-French artist Serge Uberti.
The displays are developed by combining ethnographic African art pieces with contemporary works by Serge Uberti.
The installation will be exclusively presented in New York; Milan; Paris; Rome; London (Sloane Street, Old Bond Street and Harrods), and Hong Kong Canton Road and Hong Kong IFC.
