Marina Abramović to provide art direction for Givenchy

The renowned performance artist will collaborate with Givenchy for their Spring New York fashion show.

Marina Abramović is apparently set to collaborate with Ricardo Tisci, creative director of Givenchy, on his New York spring fashion show. The show will be their first Spring show in New York, moving from Paris to coincide with the imminent opening of their new 5000-square-foot Manhattan store.

Tisci has revealed very little about the nature of the collaboration with Abramović but he did tell WWD that “She’s going to help me to art direct the show.” adding that “It’s going to be very interesting.”
