<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/saint-laurent-fall-winter-2022-anthony-vaccarello">Saint Laurent</a> is launching its newest edition of the SELF project, an art series honoring self-expression and Saint Laurent&rsquo;s unique personality through collaborations with artists, photographers, and filmmakers chosen by Creative Director <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/anthony-vaccarello-runway-history-saint-laurent" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Anthony Vaccarello</a>.
For the seventh chapter of the series, Vaccarello partnered with three photographers from photographic cooperative Magnum Photos&mdash;Alex Webb,&nbsp;Harry Gruyaert, and Olivia Arthur&mdash;as well as three of the collective's guest photographers&mdash;Takashi Homma, Daesung Lee, and Birdhead&mdash;to showcase their work all around the globe. The artwork will be displayed in a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/art/lucy-bull-contemporary-art-los-angeles-david-kordansky">gallery</a> format as an external outdoor structure in Tokyo, New York, Paris, London, and Seoul, as well as a digital presentation in Shanghai.
