Miu Miu ramps up cultural activations with Art Basel Paris [Video]

Miu Miu is ramping up its cultural cachet, partnering with Art Basel Paris for a major activation titled Tales & Tellers. The project, held at the Palais d’Iéna from October 16 to 20, 2024, was conceived by artist Goshka Macuga and curated by MACBA director Elvira Dyangani Ose. It featured Miu Miu’s Women’s Tales short-film series alongside videos from recent runway shows, all set within an immersive space that combined cinema, performance, and art.

The activation reflects Miu Miu’s broader strategy to engage with art, pushing beyond fashion into cultural commentary. Since launching Women’s Tales in 2011, the brand has used film as a platform to explore themes like femininity, vanity, and identity, offering female filmmakers space to challenge traditional narratives. At Art Basel, the films were accompanied by live performances and conversations with artists, highlighting contemporary perspectives on womanhood and storytelling.
