Louis Vuitton is exhibiting Romanian art at its Espace Culturel center in Paris.
Romanian Scenes (scènes roumaines) is the latest in a series of exhibitions at Louis Vuitton’s contemporary art hall near the Champs-Élysées in Paris. It is a showcase of Romanian art emerging from the years of political oppression in the 20th century.
The Romanian Scenes exhibition brings together a selection of works by artists who have marked the art scene over the past forty years. These include a new generation of artists such as Ciprian Muresan who adapts works of literature to explore Romania’s recent history.
Take a look at our slideshow of works from Louis Vuitton’s Romanian Scenes.
