French image pioneer Jean-Paul Goude is probably one of the most brilliant contemporary image creators of our time with his most famous image of Grace Jones in the 80s. He has been working as photographer, art director, with fashion houses such as Azzedine Alaïa, Chanel and for Paris department store Galeries Lafayette's advertisement, etc. He had a vision and knew how to invent a new style that was fun and funny at the same time. The museum Les Arst Décoratifs is honoring Goude with his first retrospective showing 40 years varieties of his work. Visitors will be welcomed right at the entrance with gigantic waltzing ladies and the monumental locomotive. If you haven't seen the exhibition, you have less than 2 weeks left until March 18th, 2012, before it's too late!
