It was the last trip that I had done before the pandemic.
The exhibition opens with a visual timeline of objects.
The clothing is the biggest surprise to me.
The Shanghai Exhibition Centre is playing host to Loewe’s “Crafted World” exhibition.
One can follow a distinct thread of make, as Anderson calls it, woven throughout the room.
You sort of are confronted with what youre achieving in a room.
If we put all the clothing in glass, it would lose its tactility.
The exhibition showcases Jonathan Anderson’s designs alongside select pieces from Loewe’s art collection.
Even if you cant touch it, visually I think it destroys it.
For me its like taxidermy.
Its true that the absence of glass brings the construction and material into sharper focus.

The tunnel leads up to a transportive tribute to Spain.
TheHowls Moving Castlebag from Loewes Studio Ghibli collaboration appears as a two-meter-tall recreation.
What I do at Loewe, everything involves craft.
The LO-WEH-VAY tunnel
Everything is made from craft.
I feel it was my initial idea when I started at the brand and I still believe it today.
