Agenda 2023

The MAISON’S vocabulary opens one’s eyes to beauty in the most unsuspecting of places. They are words that reveal what no one else sees. These are the Cartier definitions.

A FEW GOOD REASONS TO TREAT YOURSELF TO EXTRAVAGANCE. BECAUSE BEAUTY IS WHAT MATTERS.

Wild Beauty, Free Beauty

Throughout the year, the Maison initiated – through new collections, store openings, exhibitions and commitments – a virtuous dynamic, determined to cultivate beauty in order to better share it.

A year of beauty

What does JISOO’s style share with LA Panthère? An irresistibly creative combination of intuition and a free spirit. This explains why the global shining star has become the newest member of the Panthère de Cartier community. 

One Woman, One Panther, One Style

The search for beauty is the common thread of this issue, which highlights Cartier’s unique outlook on the world. The ability to see beauty everywhere and to enhance it - this is what makes the Maison universal. 

Yes, diamonds are beautiful, but this beauty is also measured by the care they receive, from their origins to the workshop. The figures speak for themselves, and they are compelling.

What if beauty’s possibilities were endless? Whether it’s wild or free, the shopping pages of 365 magazine give us all the reasons we need to indulge ourselves. 

So let’s be inspired by daring styles, such as that of Panthère woman and K-pop star JISOO, who knows from instinct that beauty also means determination and character. 

Their allure inspires us, especially when they let the cat out of the bag (the Panthère, of course), like Farida Khelfa, Troye Sivan, Stephen Jones or Lily Collins. 

A world that’s beautiful from the outside, but also from the inside, thanks to the talent of four great names in design and architecture, from Laura Gonzalez to Patricia Urquiola, who tell us about their visions of beauty.

THE TRINITY RING IS THE STAR OF AN EPHEMERAL COLLECTION

An emotional reaction or an objective truth? For Cartier, true beauty lies in the wonder of its diversity and singularity. No two beauties are ever the same; they transcend gender and generation – so, what do they share?

EXQUISE BEAUTE

The boutiques in Paris, London and New York set the tone: sacred sites THAT CARTIER OPENED TO THE WORLD, LAYING THE GROUNDWORK for what would become one of the century’s greatest adventures. Today, following those in London and New York, it is the Paris boutique’s turn to reveal itself, completely reinvented after two years of work.

Cartier is all about renewal. To change  while remaining oneself: this is the dynamic that drives Cartier, like eternal spring.

THE CARTIER BOUTIQUES: PLACES OF METAMORPHOSIS

Cartier time: a sensitive matter

Observing the beauties of the world and enriching them - this is the mission of the Maison. So let’s keep an eye on them and observe closely, just as the jeweler does when creating the latest Beautés du monde collection, a repertoire of seven rings that capture the incredible riches of the universe in their own way. What are they telling us? That each stone is a journey. This is the perfect opportunity to accompany Cartier in its search for the incomparable green diamond.

And then, there is time. It too has its beauty, especially when it passes with elegance. This is what the Maison’s watches, designed to pass through time, tell us. And what if we stopped time? Like Jake Gyllenhaal, who needs only one minute to question time and what we do with it. The quality of a moment then takes on its true meaning. 

For Cartier, it’s an aesthetic choice that favors beauty, time and time again. Here and now, Cartier takes a closer look at the architecture of its boutiques, from Rue de la Paix to Cheongdam, so as to discover the beauty of every world. 

Beauty of the World

continuing the journey to a better world. 

By immersing visitors in new perspectives and approaching questions of equality with optimism and inclusivity, the pavilion became a symbol of hope for more inclusive societies across the globe.

The Legacy of the Women’s Pavilion

Cartier Philanthropy is driven by the ideal of a world where everyone can realize their potential. In its ten-year history it has invested 100 million Swiss francs in over 80 non-profit organizations committed to driving long-term positive change – always finding inspiration in the resilience of people and communities around the globe.

10 Years of Cartier Philanthropy

Always on the lookout, curious and open to the world, the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain has relied on the living testimony of artists since its very creation. In 2022, three exhibitions gave us a glimpse of what is to come.

THE SOUND OF THE WORLD

For a decade and a half the Cartier Women’s Initiative has been driving change around the world, empowering female entrepreneurs who make a strong and sustainable impact on society or the environment.

The Cartier Women’s Initiative: A 15th Anniversary Reflection

With Come Home Again, a project brought to life in collaboration with Cartier, artist Es Devlin spotlighted London’s endangered species. 

Come Home Again: A Choral Sculpture of Biodiversity

As a universal language that shares intensity and emotion, music presents an intriguing reflection of the Maison’s concept of beauty. Through collaborations and support programs for outstanding and innovative musicians, Cartier protects their creative freedom, as well as providing support and guidance, and bringing visibility to their work.

Choosing Intensity

On the occasion of the 79th Venice International Film Festival – Biennale 2022, Cartier celebrated a history entwined with cinema that stretches back to the 1920s, while continuing as the festival’s official partner for the second consecutive year.

Lighting Each Other Up: The Maison’s love affair with cinema

For Cartier, everything is beautiful if you put your heart into it, if you commit yourself to doing it well, to preserving and cultivating it. 

Seeing beauty as a responsibility - this is another universal doctrine that committed us to work towards a more human world. 

The Cartier Women’s Initiative, which has been a voice for women’s entrepreneurial projects for 15 years, prepares a report for its anniversary, which echoes in the Women’s Pavilion in Dubai.

Then there is art, for which Cartier has chosen intensity, whether in the form of music carried by the voices of inspired artists, or in the form of cinema, whose cultural commitment is upheld by the Venice International Film Festival.

And finally, there is nature. Its fragile and demanding beauty, to which contemporary artists never cease to alert us, is at the heart of exhibitions launched by the Fondation Cartier, such as that of photographer Graciela Iturbide or The Great Animal Orchestra.

In 2022, this is perhaps what it means to be in tune with the times: to listen to the world.
