Info
The exhibition Long Live the Bride! at the Institut du monde arabe brings together costumes, jewellery, and modern and contemporary artworks exploring marriage in Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia. Ceremonial objects are presented alongside the perspectives of artists from the Maghreb and its diasporas, revealing both the richness of these cultural legacies and the questions they continue to raise.
The clothing and jewellery reveal regional differences, protective symbols and the rituals involved in assembling a trousseau or preparing the bride. Featuring pieces from Algerian, Moroccan and Tunisian collections, the exhibition places the women who make, pass on and wear these traditions at its heart. Practices shared by Jewish and Muslim communities also reveal a common history that extends beyond national borders.
Alongside these objects, photographs, archives and artworks shift the focus towards personal experience and social change. A wedding brings a community together, but it can also lay bare its norms and expectations. By exploring this interplay between collective joy, the passing down of traditions and critical perspectives, the exhibition considers marriage in the present day.
