Art + Commerce now exclusively representats Hedi Slimane, a singular talent whose vision crosses one boundary after another: fashion, photography, curating, publishing, industrial design.
Slimane is perhaps best known as the creative director of Dior Homme from 2000 to 2007, a role that earned him a CFDA Designer of the Year award in 2002. He has worked as a photographer for French Vogue, Vanity Fair, V, VMan, Purple, and Dazed & Confused. Slimane has organized over a dozen art exhibitions, including the seminal ‘Sweet Bird of Youth’ and the recent ‘Young American’ at Amsterdam’s FOAM Museum with filmmaker Gus Van Sant.
Among the nine books of photography Slimane has published is London Birth of a Cult, a document of London’s postmillenial rock scene viewed through the eyes of former Libertines frontman, Pete Doherty. Slimane has designed compelling architectural spaces from Paris to Shanghai and recently created an original furniture system for Comme des Garçons.
Slimane is available for projects through Art + Commerce (www.artandcommerce.com). Slimane’s photographs are available for licensing exclusively through the Art + Commerce Image Archive.
