Propos Antisémites : Le Célèbre Styliste John Galliano Renonce À Une Exposition À New York
The museum will replace the planned Costume Institute show after criticism over Galliano’s past antisemitic and racist comments, officials said.
- On Monday, the Metropolitan Museum of Art canceled its planned 2027 John Galliano retrospective following intense public backlash over the British fashion designer's history of antisemitic and anti-Asian hate speech.
- In 2011, Galliano was fired from Christian Dior after a French court convicted him of public insults based on religion and race, following viral videos of him hurling antisemitic slurs at people in a Parisian bar.
- Fashion editor Robin Givhan called for the Met to "cancel the Met Gala instead" and gather an "intellectual spine" rather than honoring the designer, citing concerns about the retrospective's suitability.
- In a Monday statement, Galliano said he decided with "great sadness" to withdraw, emphasizing he remains "fully accountable" for the pain caused, particularly to Jewish and Asian communities.
- Experts described the cancellation as a "major strategic reversal," noting the move reflects a shift toward judging cultural institutions on the practical meaning of institutional honor, not just artistic acknowledgment.
