Giuseppe Penone joins the Académie des Beaux-Arts. The acclaimed Italian artist is dressed by Louis Vuitton Men’s Studio to be installed in France’s Académie des Beaux-Arts as a foreign associate member. Recognized for his achievements in sculpture, the artist’s work is currently exhibited at the Gagosian Gallery in Paris. Evoking the natural elements of his oeuvre, the hand-embroidered tailcoat features olive branch detailing as a reinterpretation of the traditional academician’s green uniform. #GiuseppePenone #LouisVuitton
