Miu Miu brings contemporary art to the Palais d’Iéna

Miu Miu joins the public programme of Art Basel Paris 2026 with Geste de Consolation, a multidisciplinary exhibition curated by French filmmaker Alice Diop at the Palais d’Iéna. Invited by Miuccia Prada, Diop brings together poetry, photography, sculpture, music and dance in an exploration of historical representations of identity, racial imagery and the stereotypes that have shaped the portrayal of women since the colonial era. The exhibition features works by contemporary artists, including Simone Leigh and Zanele Muholi.


The project builds on Diop’s relationship with the maison, which began with Fragments for Venus, her 2025 short film for the Miu Miu Women’s Tales series. The exhibition closes this Sunday, 25 October, with free admission, final guided readings and live performances by the musical collective Sistazz of the Nitty Gritty. Through this initiative, Miu Miu extends its cultural dialogue beyond fashion, creating space to question how images are constructed, who shapes them and whose stories can be retold through art.


A wide-angle photograph of the interior of the Palais d’Iéna in Paris, transformed into an intimate reading room and exhibition space with dim, warm lighting. The floor is covered with a geometric carpet featuring color blocks of muted purple, olive green, dark red, and beige. Scattered throughout the hall are elongated upholstered benches in vibrant purple, black, and deep red tones, each paired with a square wooden side table holding a small illuminated desk lamp that provides focal light. In the background, modern backlit metal bookshelves filled with books are visible, surrounded by the building's imposing fluted concrete columns and heavy dark velvet drapery

Miu Miu lleva el arte contemporáneo al Palais d’Iéna


Miu Miu participa en el programa público de Art Basel Paris 2026 con Geste de Consolation, una exposición multidisciplinar comisariada por la cineasta francesa Alice Diop en el Palais d’Iéna. Invitada por Miuccia Prada, Diop reúne poesía, fotografía, escultura, música y danza en un recorrido que revisa las representaciones históricas de la identidad, los imaginarios raciales y los estereotipos que han marcado la imagen de las mujeres desde la época colonial. La muestra incluye obras de artistas contemporáneas como Simone Leigh y Zanele Muholi.


El proyecto amplía la relación entre Diop y la maison, iniciada con Fragments for Venus, su cortometraje de 2025 para la serie Miu Miu Women’s Tales. La exposición cierra este domingo 25 de octubre y ofrece entrada gratuita, además de las últimas lecturas guiadas y actuaciones del colectivo musical Sistazz of the Nitty Gritty. Con esta iniciativa, Miu Miu extiende su diálogo con la cultura más allá de la moda y abre un espacio para cuestionar cómo se construyen las imágenes, quién las define y qué relatos pueden contarse de nuevo a través del arte.
