Guests can discover how the Ballet Russes’ influence on Cartier’s designs and lexicons can be seen today in the DMA's exhibition "Cartier and Islamic Art: In Search of Modernity." Founded in Paris in 1909 by the Russian impresario Serge Diaghilev, the Russian dance company embraced theater, music, and art, with costumes and set designs by Léon Bakst, Pablo Picasso, Coco Chanel, Sonia Delaunay, Giorgio de Chirico, and others.

The Dallas Museum of Art will present short talks on the early years of the Ballet Russes, Cartier's Russian season, and how the ballet’s fashion can still be seen in today’s popular culture, followed by a film screening of Diaghilev and the Ballets Russes, 1909–1929: When Art Danced with Music.

The program features Jane Pritchard, Curator of Dance at the Victoria & Albert Museum, Michel Aliaga, Director of Transmission of Cartier History and Heritage, and Sara Idacavage, fashion historian and curator.
