Louis Vuitton is not one to shy away from grandeur in showing off its beautiful products. The brand is set to open a boutique in Miami’s Aventura Mall, and this time they have roped in New York-based Brazilian artist Vik Muniz ‘to re-imagine its iconic LV logo.’ He created a 3D sculpture made of 23 Louis Vuitton logos on one base and covered the pieces with a printed canvas. He joined hands with students from the Brazilian non-profit organization that educates at-risk youth, Spectacular, to make drawings on the painting. Customers will find the full range of LV at the new store, including ready-to-wear clothes, shoes, accessories, and watches. The location is temporary, however, and a permanent one is set for a 2012 opening.
