The Barneys New York building at 660 Madison Avenue has reopened — but not for shopping
took over the building for its traveling trunk exhibition, “200 Trunks, 200 Visionaries.” And when I say “took over,” I mean painted over the whole thing in shades of bubblegum pink, orange, yellow, red and blue for a made-for-Instagram moment on Madison Avenue. There are even more photo-op moments inside the exhibit, so prepare to see it all over your Instagram feed until the end of the year. The exhibition celebrates the legacy of Louis Vuitton’s iconic signature trunk.
The first room is a digital trunk surrounded by LED screens and a checkered rug; the next is a quiet room with a silver trunk opening and closing, revealing what looks a lot like a performance stage inside . Throughout the four floors, each trunk has a scannable QR code so you can learn more about the trunk and the artist.
