  • Liang Yuanwei embraces experimental design for Dior Lady Art
    The new series of Dior Talks – hosted by Paris-based journalist Katya Foreman – is dedicated to the eagerly anticipated ninth edition of Dior Lady Art. Eleven global artists have been invited to transform the iconic Lady Dior handbag into a unique piece of art.Our latest guest, the celebrated Chinese artist Liang Yuanwei, takes the bag’s status as an emblem of artisanal craftsmanship with rich cultural connotations to new heights, interweaving references to her impasto “Golden Notes” series and Ru ware from the Song dynasty. Blending ancient and new techniques, her captivating Lady Dior resembles a porcelain object, with the artist’s textured brushstrokes evoking crackles in the glaze. Layered with symbolism, the bag’s edges in antique gold metal echo traditional gilding techniques, while its color recalls the signature celadon green shade of Ru ware.Its creation required a series of painstaking processes. The artist’s calligraphic brushstrokes, which differ in power and do not overlay the other, were reproduced in resin using a 3D printing process before being broken into pieces, like a puzzle, and then recomposed on a velvet base.Download the episode to learn more about the artist’s fascinating Dior Lady Art journey and how this experimental process, and collaborating with the House’s artisans, has impacted her creative approach.Hosted by Ausha.

  • Vaughn Spann Transposes His Artistic Universe Onto the Lady Dior
    The new series of Dior Talks – hosted by Paris-based journalist Katya Foreman – is dedicated to the eagerly anticipated ninth edition of Dior Lady Art. Eleven global artists have been invited to transform the iconic Lady Dior handbag into a unique piece of art.For our latest guest, the American artist Vaughn Spann, collaborating on Dior Lady Art meant a change of scale. Adopting a conceptual approach, the New Jersey-based talent recalibrated details from a selection of his monumental works for three distinctive day-to-night variations of the Lady Dior that capture the signature otherworldly colors, materiality and feel of the original works.Spann’s color-blocked red and black “Flame” Lady Dior has a richly textured, fiery, volcanic feel, while for the “Dalmatian” design, gridded, spotted abstractions offer a graphic twist on the bag’s signature motifs. Meanwhile, for his “Marked Man” Lady Dior, a giant opaque “X” motif floats on a sheer pink plexiglass base topped by a retro briefcase handle, playfully blurring masculine-feminine codes. Embodying a cross-pollination of fashion and art, the contemporary creations are designed to accompany the wearer on different occasions, whether to a gala, a nightclub or on a ski trip, offering the opportunity to live with the artist’s paintings in a more compact and intimate way.Download the episode to learn more about Spann’s universe and Dior Lady Art journey.Hosted by Ausha.

  • Duy Anh Nhan Duc Transforms the Lady Dior into a Portable Garden
    The new series of Dior Talks – hosted by Paris-based journalist Katya Foreman – is dedicated to the eagerly anticipated ninth edition of Dior Lady Art. Eleven global artists have been invited to transform the iconic Lady Dior handbag into a unique piece of art.A lover of nature like Monsieur Dior himself, our latest guest is the Vietnam-born, Paris-based artist Duy Anh Nhan Duc, a green-fingered poet who creates ethereal installations composed of common weeds and wildflowers, forming the essence of his enchanting universe. The artist collects them near his studio in Le Pré-Saint-Gervais, focusing on the “forgotten plants” that push through the cracks of sidewalks – the type he would play with as a child – from salsifies, thistles and wheat to clover and dandelion puffballs that, when blown, disperse into an explosion of seeds. He then painstakingly dries them in his studio to use in his works, weaving a fascinating dialogue from the cycles of life, focusing on the fragility of the moment.For Dior Lady Art, the artist imprints his passion for wild plants onto a pristine white Lady Dior, fusing organic simplicity with virtuoso elegance. A profusion of plants embossed into vegan leather is enhanced by delicate embroidery, while in lieu of the iconic cannage quilting, a delicate wire trellis is partly exposed, symbolizing a garden that is open to all. Adorned with contrasting golden branches crafted from gilded metal, the bag also contains a hidden surprise: the secret talisman of a gold-embellished dandelion, captured in a drop of resin for all eternity.Download the episode to learn more about Duy Anh Nhan Duc’s remarkable vegetal artistry.Hosted by Ausha.

  • Duy Anh Nhan Duc transforme le Lady Dior en un jardin nomade
    La nouvelle série Dior Talks, présentée par la journaliste parisienne Katya Foreman, met à l'honneur la très attendue neuvième édition de Dior Lady Art. Pour l’occasion, onze artistes de renommée internationale ont été invités à réinterpréter l’emblématique sac Lady Dior et à en faire une œuvre d’art unique.Passionné de nature, tout comme Monsieur Dior, notre invité est l’artiste Duy Anh Nhan Duc, né au Vietnam et installé à Paris. Véritable poète botanique, il crée des installations éthérées en utilisant des mauvaises herbes et des fleurs sauvages, capturant l’essence d’un univers enchanteur. L’artiste récolte ces plantes oubliées autour de son atelier au Pré-Saint-Gervais, celles qui poussent entre les fissures des trottoirs et qui rappellent les jeux de son enfance. Parmi elles, salsifis, chardons, blé, trèfles et akènes de pissenlit qui, lorsqu’on souffle dessus, s’envolent en une myriade de graines. Ces végétaux sont ensuite minutieusement séchés dans son atelier avant d’être intégrés à ses œuvres, dans une exploration fascinante des cycles de la vie et de la fragilité de l’instant présent.Pour Dior Lady Art, l’artiste a transposé sa passion des plantes sauvages sur un Lady Dior immaculé, alliant simplicité organique et élégance virtuose. Une profusion de plantes en relief orne le cuir vegan, rehaussée par des broderies délicates. En lieu et place du cannage emblématique, un treillis métallique finement travaillé symbolise un jardin ouvert à tous. Le sac se pare également de branches dorées en métal précieux et cache un secret : un talisman unique, une graine de pissenlit dorée et préservée à jamais dans une goutte de résine.Découvrez cet épisode pour plonger dans l’univers fascinant de l’art végétal de Duy Anh Nhan Duc.Hosted by Ausha.

  • Jeffrey Gibson Explores the Complexities of Loving and Being Loved for Dior Lady Art
    The new series of Dior Talks – hosted by Paris-based journalist Katya Foreman – is dedicated to t ninth edition of Dior Lady Art. Eleven global artists have been invited to transform the iconic Lady Dior handbag into a unique piece of art.Collaborating with Dior Lady Art for a second consecutive season, artist Jeffrey Gibson, a member of the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians and Cherokee descent, returns with a piece inspired by his 2017 punching-bag sculpture “LOVE IS THE DRUG,” themed around the complexities of loving and being loved. An advocate of artisans, materials, pattern and adornment, the New York-based artist – known for his ultra-colorful works that combine traditional Native American craftsmanship with a bold, almost psychedelic aesthetic – also plays with texts and slogans, embracing the power of speech as he celebrates the forgotten and the marginalized. Thus, his latest Lady Dior is fully beaded on one side, with the word “Love” repeated three times in a signature LCD-style font, while the other is loaded with over 70 jangling 3D-printed hearts. “Being a person of color traveling around the world – I’ve lived in London, South Korea, Germany and different states in the United States – I think I’ve really always paid attention to how people dress themselves and adorn themselves,” says the artist. “I’m really interested in different kind of movements, whether it’s feminist movements, LGBTQ movements or Indigenous liberation movements, and the ways that we codify that in how we dress.”Download the episode to learn more about Jeffrey Gibson’s fascinating universe.Hosted by Ausha.
