To present its new High Jewelry collection, Van Cleef & Arpels commissioned Robert Wilson with the design and scenography. In his vision of the Ark, Robert Wilson imagined a sensory mise-en-scène plunged in the engulfing darkness.

Robert Wilson creates a dreamlike travel through a timeless interpretation of Noah’s Ark.
