Gucci has announced that its Art Walls in Milan, New York, London, Shanghai and Hong Kong now feature Décor illustrations realised by British artist Alex Merry.
Merry developed imagery for the Gucci Décor debut in 2017, and now this special relationship with the House continues with the creation of illustrations depicting new styles and pieces.
Perfectly embodying Merry’s signature aesthetic, the new Art Walls display a variety of new items: scented candles in porcelain jars, vases with snakes for handles, porcelain tableware produced by Manifattura Richard Ginori featuring the Herbarium print, as well as sumptuous cushions showcasing the GG pattern in silk jacquard or animal motifs.
Executed in New York by Colossal Media, and in Milan and London by the European leader in out-of-home advertising, Urban Vision, the new ArtWalls are respectively located on Lafayette Street in Manhattan’s SoHo neighbourhood, in Milan’s Largo la Foppa (in the district of Corso Garibaldi), and just off East London’s famous Brick Lane. The Hong Kong installation is on D’Aguilar Street, in Lan Kwai Fong, while the Shanghai mural is located in Fengsheng Li, Jingan district.
