The exhibition and catalogue were designed by Martin d’Orgeval.

François-Marie Banier is pleased to present an exhibition at the 35th edition of the International Festival of Fashion, Photography and Fashion Accessories at the Villa Noailles in Hyères.

It will be accompanied by a catalogue presenting a large number of documents illustrating the friendship between Marie-Laure de Noailles and François-Marie Banier, including his own photographs of Marie-Laure de Noailles—on which he sometimes painted or wrote—, letters, interviews, and items from the artist’s personal collection.

François-Marie Banier is very pleased to lend artworks to the exhibition in Qatar in homage to Sheikh Saoud. The exhibition opened in August for a period of eight months. "The Museum of Islamic Art (MIA) will pay tribute to HE Sheikh Saoud bin Mohamed bin Ali Al Thani who was so influential in the constitution of collections for Qatar Museums and the state of Qatar in general. Sheikh Saoud’s legacy as a collector is of crucial importance to Qatar Museums as he laid the foundations of the major collections within the institution. Parts of the collection are on display at MIA, but others remain in storage. This exhibition will significantly contribute to shedding light on objects that have never been displayed in Qatar before." [...]
