Mori Arts Center Gallery

Founded by Chanel in Paris in 2021, le19M is a ground-breaking hub that brings together 11 maisons d’art and over 700 artisans, dedicated to preserving and advancing the intricate crafts behind haute couture: embroidery, pleating, millinery, shoemaking, feather work and more. As both a creative incubator and a guardian of heritage, le19M is home to la Galerie du 19M, a cultural space that celebrates craftsmanship, fosters innovation and nurtures future generations of artisans. From September 30 to October 20, Chanel invites Tokyo audiences to discover the extraordinary world of the métiers d’art with la Galerie du 19M Tokyo, an exhibition on an unprecedented scale, held on the 52nd floor of the Mori Tower in Roppongi Hills. La Galerie du 19M Tokyo offers a free, immersive experience for visitors of all ages and backgrounds. Through a curated journey blending tradition and contemporary creation, visitors are invited witness the meticulous artistry and dedication behind some of Chanel’s most iconic pieces. It’s a dialogue between cultures and crafts, honouring the value of human hands and the timeless beauty of artisanal excellence, brought to life high above the Tokyo skyline. Note that while the exhibition is free to view, advance reservation is required to enter the venue. You can book your spot here.
