Contemporary artist Annette Messager is well known for creating stuffed animals and other soft toys for exhibitions. Her collection is valued at EUR 25 million.
Crown’s first task was to collect over 150 artworks from various museums, galleries and private collectors and deliver them to Annette Messager's studio. Ms. Messager then created hoods for the soft toys. Crown then repackaged and delivered them to the Centre Pompidou in Paris for the first exhibition. The exhibition continued to Espoo, Finland to be displayed at the Museum of Modern Art and Seoul to be displayed at the National Museum of Contemporary Art.
Crown’s services included packing, crating, arranging export customs formalities, shipment by air and courier assistance. The volume of the shipment was 50 cubic meters which were transported on three different flights.
The artworks then traveled to Tokyo to be displayed at the Mori Art Museum and additional venues in the U.K. and Russia.
