|
On November 9th, 2019 MCM and KÖNIG GALERIE celebrated the grand opening of the exhibition space KÖNIG TOKIO at the MCM Ginza Haus I in Tokyo. In the presence of photographer Juergen Teller, over 200 guests from the worlds of art, fashion and culture gathered for the inaugural exhibition. Hosted by MCM’s Global Creative Officer Dirk Schoenberger and gallerists Johann and Lena König notable guests included the German ambassador to Japan Ina Lepel, Shota Matsuda, Rila Fukushima, Mariya Nishiuchi among others.
The solo exhibition Heimweh centers on the concept of homesickness, a re-evaluation of Teller’s German identity and his position as a European immigrant to the UK in the midst of the ongoing Brexit uncertainty. Set up as an interplay between large-scale formats and smaller pictures, the exhibition will run from November 9th, 2019 to January 11th, 2020. Many of the works are shown in public for the first time.
Global luxury brand MCM and Berlin-based gallery KÖNIG GALERIE joined forces to establish a 3000 sqft. exhibition space for contemporary art at the MCM GINZA HAUS I, the brand’s Japanese flagship concept store. With a focus on showcasing a roster of key influential German, Austrian and Swiss artists in Japan, the temporary gallery KÖNIG TOKIO will run multiple exhibitions starting from November 2019 through to December 2020 – among them internationally renowned artists such as Katharina Grosse, Alicja Kwade, Erwin Wurm and more.
The MCM Ginza HAUS I is MCM’s concept space celebrating the brand’s heritage of culture, craft and creativity. As an architectural landmark where art, fashion, culture converge and the experiential meet, it is the ideal venue for KÖNIG TOKIO.

The National Gallery of Australia’s extraordinary exhibition—featuring many of the world’s greatest jewels—opens in Canberra on 30 March. Cartier: The Exhibition includes the tiara loaned to Catherine Middleton on her wedding day by Her Majesty The Queen, Grace Kelly’s engagement ring and Elizabeth Taylor’s ruby and diamond necklace, along with some of the most exquisite pieces from the stunning Cartier Collection.
Today Academy-Award nominated Australian actress, Naomi Watts, was a special guest to celebrate the launch of Cartier: The Exhibition. ‘It’s fantastic to be in Canberra to see this gorgeous exhibition,’ said Ms Watts. ‘It’s a beautiful show full of history and style that all Australians must see.’
Featuring more than 300 works of art, the exhibition showcases outstanding necklaces, brooches, tiaras, watches and ornaments, alongside rarely seen archival drawings, photographs and ephemera. Co-curated by Margaret Young-Sánchez, formerly Chief Curator of Denver Art Museum and the NGA, the exhibition showcases pieces from the Cartier Collection, museums, institutions and private collectors.
‘This exhibition is the most outstanding collection of important jewels Australia has ever seen, and is ever likely to see again,’ said Gerard Vaughan, NGA Director. ‘This is an unmissable opportunity to see masterpieces of this craftsmanship and quality up close.’
A remarkable Royal Style section features items generously lent by Her Majesty The Queen, including a brooch with one of the most impressive pink diamonds in the world, jewellery worn and owned by Princess Margaret and Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, and the famous Indian Tiara owned by The Duchess of Gloucester.
Cartier’s legacy is synonymous with clients like the Duchess of Windsor, Princess Grace of Monaco, Mexican film star María Félix, and the indomitable queen of jewellery, Elizabeth Taylor. The greatest Australian celebrity at the turn of the 20th century, Dame Nellie Melba—a devoted Cartier client—is also a feature of the exhibition.
‘We are honoured to collaborate with the NGA on this exhibition,’ said Pierre Rainero, Director of Image, Style and Heritage at Cartier. ‘The vision of Cartier’s creative force, Louis Cartier, is further realised by the aesthetic and content of this one-of-a-kind exhibition through its innovation and style in presenting not only the jewels, but also the social context surrounding their history.’
Strategic Partner Visit Canberra recognises the value of such a significant and exclusive exhibition to the National Capital. ‘We are proud to welcome these works of art—so many belonging to historic icons of film, stage and royalty—exclusively to Canberra,’ said Andrew Barr, ACT Chief Minister. ‘It is exhibitions such as this that contribute to our capital’s record visitor numbers and growing reputation as a cultural tourism destination, bringing visitors from far and wide.’
