From intricate haute couture embroidery to contemporary Chinese craftsmanship, Chanel’s la Galerie du 19M brings the hidden artistry of fashion into the spotlight at the Museum of Art Pudong.從錯綜複雜的高級定製刺繡到當代中國工藝，香奈兒19M畫廊將時尚背後的藝術才華在浦東美術館推向聚光燈下。

When we think of an exquisite garment, a picture of a finished product from a runway comes to mind. But behind the pleasing shapes and beautiful colors, there are hours of intricate handwork and sometimes centuries of tradition. This fall, Shanghai gives us an opportunity to look behind the curtain into the craftsmanship of one of the most revered fashion brands, Chanel. But it is not just a display for a single fashion house. An ongoing conversation between Western and Eastern craft legacy is furthered by the works of contemporary Chinese artists that draw a bridge between ancient legacy and modern innovation, accompanied by the meticulous work of the French craftsmen.當我們想到一件精緻的服裝，腦海中會浮現出秀場上成品的模樣。但在這些悅目的造型與絢麗的色彩背後，是數小時的精細手工勞作，有時更是延續了數百年的傳統。今年秋天，上海爲我們提供了一個契機，得以揭開法國頂級時尚品牌香奈兒的工藝面紗。但這並非僅是對單一時尚品牌的展示。中國當代藝術家的作品搭建起古老傳承與現代創新的橋樑，法國工匠們的精湛技藝也讓東西方工藝傳統之間的交流對話持續深化。

Running from September 25 to November 15 at the Museum of Art Pudong, this rare exhibition offers a unique perspective on human creativity and skills. For fashion enthusiasts, textile lovers, and anyone curious about the relationship between heritage and innovation, it is an invitation to look at some of the highest levels of craftsmanship, something that becomes increasingly valuable in our modern AI-maxxing age.這場罕見的展覽於9月25日至11月15日在浦東美術館舉辦，爲人們提供了審視人類創造力與技藝的獨特視角。對於時尚愛好者、紡織品愛好者，以及所有對傳統與創新之間關係充滿好奇的人而言，這場展覽是一次領略頂尖工藝的契機，而在如今這個人工智能飛速發展的時代，這樣的工藝價值愈發凸顯。

Founded by Chanel in 2021, le19M brings together specialist ateliers whose expertise is essential to the luxury fashion industry. Its network includes craftspeople working in embroidery, pleating, featherwork, millinery, jewellery and other highly specialised disciplines. In Les Maisons, visitors can discover the remarkable precision and imagination involved in transforming raw materials into intricate decorative details. From embroidery to shoe and hat making, visitors can take a closer look at what goes into creating something beautiful. And remember, even though some of the feathers and sequins look very touchable, countless staff members are closely monitoring you with a sign that says “Do Not Touch”, so do not be tempted.2021年由香奈兒創立的le19M匯聚了一衆專業工坊，其技藝對奢侈時尚行業至關重要。該工坊網路涵蓋了從事刺繡、打褶、羽毛工藝、女帽製作、珠寶製作及其他高度專業領域的手工藝人。在這些工坊中，參觀者能領略到將原材料轉化爲精巧裝飾細節時所蘊含的非凡匠心與巧思。從刺繡到製鞋、制帽，參觀者可近距離探尋打造精美物件背後的工藝精髓。切記，儘管部分羽毛和亮片看似觸手可及，但現場有無數工作人員正盯着你，旁邊還立着“請勿觸碰”的標識，切勿心生觸碰的念頭。

The next section will be highly enjoyed by fine arts lovers. A Sense of Touch, one of its central sections, brings the expertise of le19M’s ateliers into conversation with Chinese and French artists, designers and craftspeople.下一部分將深受藝術愛好者的喜愛。核心板塊之一《觸覺之境》將 le19M 工坊的專業技藝與中法藝術家、設計師及工匠的創作相融合。

Curated with contributions from figures including Gong Yan, Lin Tianmiao, Zhang Lei and Christelle Kocher, the section explores craftsmanship through materials and practices such as textiles, ceramics, lacquer, woodcarving and bamboo weaving.本部分由龔豔、林天苗、張磊以及克莉絲泰勒·科歇爾等多位藝術家參與創作，通過紡織品、陶瓷、漆器、木雕和竹編等材料與工藝，探討了手工技藝之美。

Rather than treating traditional techniques as relics of the past, the exhibition considers how they can be reinterpreted through contemporary creative practice. Different materials and cultural traditions become starting points for experimentation, revealing unexpected connections between craft, art and design. This is very fitting for a city like Shanghai, where constant innovation is met by honoring the centuries-old legacy.展覽並未將傳統技藝視爲過時的遺存，而是探討如何通過當代創作實踐對其進行重新詮釋。不同的材料與文化傳統成爲實驗的起點，揭示出工藝、藝術與設計之間意想不到的關聯。這與上海這座城市極爲契合——在上海，對百年傳承的尊崇與持續不斷的創新相輔相成。

My personal favorite section was Lesage: 100 Years of Fashion and Decoration. An appreciation of Maison Lesage, the celebrated Parisian embroidery house established in 1924.我個人最喜歡的展區是“勒薩日：百年時尚與裝飾”。這是對巴黎著名刺繡工作室馬森·勒薩日（Maison Lesage）的致敬，該工作室創立於1924年。

Known for its contribution to haute couture, Lesage has helped shape the visual language of Chanel through its intricate embroidery and distinctive textile creations. Its work demonstrates how embellishment can become an integral part of a garment’s identity rather than a finishing touch. Moreover, 19M features a large display of archival and contemporary Chanel runway pieces. From Karl Lagerfeld to current Matthieu Blazy, the consistency and quality of the Chanel craft cannot be appreciated enough.以對高級定製的貢獻而聞名，萊薩奇（Lesage）憑藉其繁複的刺繡和別具一格的紡織品創作，助力塑造了香奈兒（Chanel）的視覺語言。其作品展現了裝飾如何成爲服裝身份不可或缺的一部分，而非僅僅是點睛之筆。此外，19M 展區還集中展出了大量香奈兒的檔案藏品與當代秀場作品。從卡爾·拉格斐（Karl Lagerfeld）到現任的馬蒂厄·布拉齊（Matthieu Blazy），香奈兒工藝的傳承性與精湛品質值得人們反覆品味。

If you didn’t know, Chanel acquired Lesage through Paraffection in 2002; the historic atelier is celebrated for its intricate embroidery and innovative tweed creations. What is Paraffecrtion you might ask? It is a part of the Chanel label that invests and manages many specialized French craft workshops, in order to preserve and celebrate human creativity and history. Which is an incredible initiative; in our contemporary age of AI, we cannot afford to lose any more uniquely human skills.如果你還不知道，香奈兒於2002年通過Paraffection收購了萊薩奇工坊；這家歷史悠久的工坊以其繁複的刺繡和創新的花呢設計而聞名。你可能會問，Paraffection是什麼？它是香奈兒品牌旗下負責投資和管理多家法國專業手工工坊的部門，旨在傳承並彰顯人類的創造力與歷史。這是一項極具意義的舉措；在如今的人工智能時代，我們再也承受不起失去更多人類獨有技藝的代價。
