Opening today January 15 to January 20 from 12 noon to 10 pm daily in Concrete, Al Serkal Street, a wonderful exhibition celebrating the art and skill in making the famous Hermes silk scarves, under the title The Carré Club.

 

Prêt-à-porter scarf in vintage silk, SS21

 

Designed as a series of zones to highlight different facets of the Hermès craft world, it will showcase the artistry and skill of the Parisian house’s ateliers. Artisans will be on hand to demonstrate their deft, steady-hand in silk painting, while other sections will demonstrate the evolving aesthetics of the Hermès scarf. Most strikingly, the Carré Club will bring together a series of contemporary artists to create their own rendering of the scarf; Italian painter Gianpoalo Pagni’s collages and child-like renderings of horses, or Japanese artist Daiske Nomura’s fairytale imagery employing the maison’s horsebit.
