A partis de 26 de Agosto, e até 6 de Novembro, o Museum Bellerive, em Zurique, apresenta a exposição “Cartier Time Art”, focada na capacidade relojoeira da Cartier.
O Museum Bellerive - onde está a Colecção de Artes Aplicadas do Museu de Design de Zurique, é a primeira localização desta exposição, que deverá realizar uma digressão mundial.
A “Cartier Time Art” reúne o maior número de relógios Cartier alguma vez expostos ao público, desde as suas origens até à actualidade, aliando estética e inovação técnica.
O designer Tokujin Yoshioka é o responsável pela cenografia da exposição. A Cartier escolheu 12 calibres excepcionais, equipando 17 relógios, que estarão expostos em 3D, segundo um processo concebido por Yoshioka.
Além disso, estarão patentes 156 peças históricas, escolhidas da Cartier Collection. A exposição leva-nos desde os medidores do passado, a partir de 1847, data da fundação da marca, até ao coração da Suíça, a La Chaux-de-Fonds, onde está hoje a Manufactura Cartier, uma instalação de mais de 30.000 m², e onde se procede à concepção, manufactura, produção, manutenção e restauro de relógios e calibres Cartier. Estação Cronográfica visitará a exposição, e disso aqui dará conta. Entretanto...
