David Lynch's Champagne Dreams

The LA Launch of the Iconoclastic Director's Newly Designed Dom Pérignon Bottle

Filmmaker Luke Gilford fashions a surrealist portrait of the opening night party for the debut of David Lynch’s limited-edition bottle designed for Dom Pérignon. Following up his dreamlike campaign for the storied champagne brand launched last December, Lynch reinvented the look of the iconic Vintage 2003 and Rosé 2000 bottles. Gilford paid homage to theMulholland Drive director by adopting his stylistic motifs, interspersing scenes from the exclusive party in Hollywood—featuring a live performance by The Kills and a DJ-set by Diplo for a crowd including the likes of Bret Easton Ellis, Bill Viola and Shannyn Sossamon—with the Lynch-designed bottle’s reveal capturing Los Angeles' fantastical visage. “I showed up to my grandma's house with a fog machine and lasers at 9am the day after,” explains Gilford. “Those images function a bit like non-sequiturs—of the same world, but kind of a hiccup, too. I wanted to build more of a dream sequence than a linear narrative.” Working with DJ Jeremy Lingvall, Gilford interwove an original score with audio recorded at the event and an interview with Lynch. “I wanted the film to be about conversation, experimentation and revelation,” he says. Here the Californian native, who has created film and photographic work for The New York Times and Maison Martin Margiela, as well as exhibiting at MOMA in New York, expands on the film icon’s legacy.

The nine decades of Yayoi Kusama’s life have taken her from rural Japan to the New York art scene to contemporary Tokyo, in a career in which she has continuously innovated and re-invented her style. Well-known for her repeating dot patterns, her art encompasses an astonishing variety of media, including painting, drawing, sculpture, film, performance and immersive installation. It ranges from works on paper featuring intense semi-abstract imagery, to soft sculpture known as ‘Accumulations’, to her ‘Infinity Net’ paintings, made up of carefully repeated arcs of paint built up into large patterns. Since 1977 Kusama has lived voluntarily in a psychiatric institution, and much of her work has been marked with obsessiveness and a desire to escape from psychological trauma. In an attempt to share her experiences, she creates installations that immerse the viewer in her obsessive vision of endless dots and nets or infinitely mirrored space. (Tate Modern)

'Fireflies on water' exhibition 2002

Following a collaborative artistic retrospective of Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama, Louis Vuitton celebrates her unique style with the Infinity Dots collection.

With both a ready-to-wear and accessories collection, the line was inspired by Yayoi Kusama's most representative works and designed in collaboration with the French fashion label's creative director Marc Jacobs.
