\n\tThe Frick Collection in New York has announced a three-year partnership with Louis Vuitton that will see the fashion house sponsor a number of initiatives at the museum.<\/p>\n
\n\tLouis Vuitton will be the lead sponsor of three of the Frick\u2019s upcoming exhibitions: \u201cSiena: The Art of Bronze, 1450\u20131500,\u201d which will look at the Italian city as an epicenter for innovation in bronze during the Renaissance, opening this fall; \u201cPainting with Fire: Susanne de Court and the Art of Enamel,\u201d a survey of the 17th-century French enameler, opening in spring 2027; and a third exhibition that has not yet been announced but will focus on 19th-century paintings and open in late 2027.<\/p>\n
\n\tThis curatorial support will also extend to a two-year position that will be known as the Louis Vuitton Curatorial Research Associate. The recipient of this position will be Yifu Liu, who is currently a curatorial fellow at the Frick, where he is researching \u201ccultural exchange and the hybridization of artistic practices between Europe and China in the eighteenth century,\u201d according to a release. In his new role, Liu will concentrate on the Frick\u2019s Asian porcelain holdings as well as look at the art and fashion of the courts of Louis XV and Louis XVI of France and Qianlong Emperor of China.<\/p>\n
\n\tAdditionally, Louis Vuitton will provide the funds for a year\u2019s worth of the Frick\u2019s First Fridays programs, for which the museum is free admission from 5:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. on the first Friday of each month, expect for in January and September. Running June 2026\u2013May 2027, the program will be branded as Louis Vuitton First Fridays.<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cWe are thrilled to engage with Louis Vuitton in such a meaningful and sustaining way,\u201d Frick director Axel R\u00fcger said in a statement. \u201cThe House\u2019s commitment to cultural experiences of the highest quality aligns well with our own, and this sponsorship over the next three years will provide critical funding for three integral areas of the museum\u2019s mission: exhibitions, public programming, and art historical research. We are grateful for this unique support from one of the world\u2019s leading fashion houses, which will enable many of the Frick\u2019s important future offerings in this new chapter following our renovation.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tThe partnership will be launched via the presentation of Louis Vuitton\u2019s Cruise 2027 collection show, by Nicolas Ghesqui\u00e8re, in the Frick\u2019s first floor galleries on May 20. The museum will be closed for a few days next week in order to realize the show.<\/p>\n
\n\tLouis Vuitton is not the first fashion house to stage its Cruise 2027 collection at a museum this season. On Thursday, Dior, now helmed by Jonathan Anderson, held its Cruise collection at the recently opened David Geffen Galleries of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cNicolas\u2019s vision for the Cruise collections, consistently presented at extraordinary locations, enables us to create deeper connections between fashion, architecture, and culture,\u201d Louis Vuitton CEO Pietro Beccari said in a statement. \u201cThis sponsorship at the Frick not only reinforces Louis Vuitton\u2019s dedication to supporting the arts but also illustrates how such exceptional venues become integral to the Louis Vuitton story, enriching our narrative with each collection.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
