Odette du Puigaudeau exhibition at Yves Saint Laurent Museum
Overview
The Yves Saint Laurent Museum in Marrakech is hosting an exhibition titled ‘In the Footsteps of Odette du Puigaudeau’ (or ‘Sur les traces d’Odette du Puigaudeau’), running from October 3, 2026, to March 7, 2027.
The exhibition features over 200 items, including photographs, drawings, manuscripts, and audio archives, to honor the life of Odette du Puigaudeau. The showcase documents her career as a French explorer, ethnologist, and designer, specifically highlighting her decades-long partnership with Marion Sénones. Together, they traveled the Sahara to document nomadic cultures, traditional crafts, and desert dwellings.
The exhibition traces du Puigaudeau’s life through several stages: her early years in France, her desert expeditions through Mauritania and the Sahara, and her later life in Rabat, where she worked for Moroccan radio and directed the prehistory office of the Rabat Antiquities Museum after settling there in 1961.
