#FactoriaHabana: Karl Lagerfeld exhibition in Cuba

I’ve always wanted to visit Cuba. I admit I am still fascinated by her colors, by her retro cich vibe, by her history and by her people. But I’ve never imagined that I would visit it through the beautiful images from Chanel Cruise to Cuba. For a couple of days, I have opened the Instagram once at three minutes, just to see new and new pictures with #ChanelCruiseCuba and #FactoriaHabana. Why this fever?

Well, that’s because “Obra en Proceso / Work in Progress” exhibition was opened, in the presence of Karl Lagerfeld, at the Factoría Habana art gallery. This exhibition is divided into three sections representing the designer’s main interests: fashion, architecture and landscapes. It explores the great diversity of subjects, approaches and techniques that define the very personal and subtle interpretation that makes Karl Lagerfeld’s photography. For him, a photo is not just an image but also a unique visual object. Guests included ambassador Gaspard Ulliel, actresses Alma Jodorowsky and Nathalia Acevedo, director Deniz Gamze Ergüven and writer Loulou Robert discovered more than 200 photographs by Karl Lagerfeld.

Plus: The 2016/17 Cruise collection show will be presented on the 3rd May 2016 on El Paseo del Prado in Havana, few days after the opening of the exhibition.
