The “Mobile Art” exhibition of Chanel will début its worldwide tour in Hong Kong this month.

Resulting from a collaboration between Architect Zaha Hadid and Karl Lagerfeld this boundary-breaking project will tour from 2008 to 2010 from Hong Kong to Paris, Tokyo, New York, LA, London and finally Moscow.

The Chanel Contemporary Art Container - a collapsible, futuristic pavilion - is a celebration of Chanel’s cultural importance and displays the brand’s heritage in a new way.

Chanel commissioned fifteen internationally renowned contemporary artists to create works inspired by the iconic quilted Chanel 2.55 shoulder bag which was originally introduced by Coco Chanel in February 1955.
