One of my favorite parts of the GersonCurse trip to China was the Christian Dior exhibit in the 798 District in Beijing. The District is a collection of warehouses that have been turned into gallery and studio spaces. The Dior exhibit is one of those shows that you just can't describe. Lets just say there was a 2 story high baby made out of cowhide and there were indoor hallways with grass and bamboo growing. Check out the link for a few pictures. Unfortunately it was impossible to take any of our own pics because there were gallery people EVERYWHERE!

Ah! I'm so glad you posted about this! I think I dragged my dropped jaw around the entire show!
ReplyDeleteMy fav was the hallway lined w/ ppl in Dior:
One one side were the runway models, and on the opposing wall were ppl "obviously doing it wrong"
Ha! So cheeky!
