It is for the launch of his new fragrance «elle» paired with his actual sponsoring of the FIAC that YSL has also decided to build an event and a press conference with Andreamedia by opening an island: an art gallery YSL – elle – on Second Life fully dedicated to artistic expression.
Residents and non residents artists have been requested to submit their artwork at la FIAC and over the internet for an “express-yourself” contest on the subject (in french): “elle” : Qui est-elle ? Audacieuse, imprévisible, artiste, séductrice… comment la voyez vous ?
Among all participants, 3 artists have hold attention of YSL:
Milo et Poca TAE et Karin WESTERFELD / FARRJONES sur SL.
