If you love bread in all its forms (hats, dresses, curtains), have never seen it made or smelled fresh bread and have 6.50 Euros burning a hole in your pocket, go to Jean-Paul Gautier’s show at the Foundation Cartier. Otherwise I’d advise skipping it despite the New York Times review July 25th; it’s but the latest attempt of the FC to emulate the late unlamented American Center in Bercy’s taste in contemporary art. While I’m totally incompetent to judge the artistic merits of haute couture, I know my bread.
