Holy high heels

The 22nd Biennale of Sydney Christian Louboutin shoes sale begins this weekend, and will be the first to showcase the work of indigenous artists from around the world. I’ll be taking a look at the Biennale next week, while keeping my fingers crossed. I’ve learned that it’s best not to go into this event with exalted expectations. While the Biennale was being Christian Louboutin shoes price set up, I’ve been in Paris on other business. Even without coronavirus, the timing wasn’t great. Most major venues were between shows or closed for renovations, but there was one bright light in the museum gloom. Christian Louboutin: The Exhibitionist at the Palais de la Porte Doree might have been nothing more than row upon row of fancy shoes. Instead, Louboutin, probably the world’s Christian Louboutin sneakers sale most famous living shoe designer, has created a show that tells his life story not by shoes alone, but also through a diverse collection of art and artefacts. The curator of the show is Olivier Gabet, director of the Musee des Arts Decoratifs (MAD), which is hosting its own enormous shoe show. The MAD exhibition is bigger, but far less engaging, as one becomes wearied by the sheer volume of footwear, dating to a set of sandals worn by an ancient Greek. It’s as if Gabet has kept his best Christian Louboutin sneakers cheap ideas for the Louboutin show, although one presumes the subject made a decisive contribution. Even the choice of venue is deeply personal, as Louboutin spent much of his childhood lurking in the Palais de la Port Doree when it was the Museum of African and Oceanic Arts. Today this marvellous art deco building is a museum of immigration, but it retains the basement aquarium that has enthralled generations of children.
