The fashion legend and founder of Lamyland returns to Venice Biennale for 2019 with an immersive boxing installation: What Are We Fighting For? Michèle Lamy is no stranger to the Venice Biennale. In 2015, the mythic polymath, wife and business partner of Rick Owens created Bargenale, a scaffolding-clad barge docked at Certosa, close to the main exhibitions in the Giardini and Arsenale.
