From 30th September to 20th October 2025, le19M was travelling from Paris to take up residence in the very heart of Tokyo, on the 52th floor of the Mori Tower.
Conceived as a space of wonder, and dialogue, la Galerie du 19M Tokyo exhibitionswasoffering a free inspiring and playful journey open to all, with the ambition to promote the Métiers d'art.
Founded by CHANEL in 2021 in Paris, le19M is a unique location that brings together 11 Maisons d’arts, 700 passionate artisans and experts dedicated to the Métiers d’art of fashion and decoration.
After Tokyo, la Galerie du 19M Paris will host a new chapter of this story between France and Japan in January 2026 ! A way to allow the French public to discover unique collaborations between France and japanese artisans up close.
For Beyond Our Horizons the eleven art houses of le19M in Paris collaborated with artists, artisans and workshops from all over Japan.
Together, they overcame linguistic, technical and generational differences to take on new creative challenges, while honouring their traditional roots. The works of art created through these collaborations and a deep dedication to craftsmanship invite us to reflect on the true meaning of creativity.
la Galerie du 19M Tokyo is a new milestone in the history that connects CHANEL and Japan, built on respect, mutual admiration, and shared inspiration.
While Japanese aesthetics have permeated many collections since the time of Gabrielle Chanel, the Maison has also paid homage to Japan through multiple landmark events, from its first fashion show in Tokyo in 1978, to its first Métiers d’art show abroad, at the Ginza flagship, in 2004.
