Italian fashion house Prada is launching a 24-hour museum tonight in Paris. Based in the Palais
D’Iéna, the museum has been designed by Milan-based artist and satirist Francesco Vezzoli with Rem Koolhaas' think tank AMO, and will be open for just one day.The museum will be split into three sections, each inspired by a particular type of museum space: historic, contemporary and forgotten. Vezzoli has creating and curated a ‘non-existent museum’ centring on his tribute to femininity, which is showcased through interpretations of classical sculptures that make reference to contemporary divas.
The 24-hour museum opens tonight at 8.30pm with an invitation-only dinner before the space is turned a nightclub, which will be viewable on online at www.24hoursmuseum.com. Then tomorrow the museum will be open to the public, host school tours and when will close at 8.30pm when the 24-hour period comes to an end.
