Palm Springs Art Museum chief curator Christine Vendredi shares her vision, after 12 years as Louis Vuitton Art, Culture, and Heritage Director.

, now at Palm Springs Art Museum, promises to bring new buzz to the California desert community that has long been a destination for Hollywood, fashion and design enthusiasts.

“I got the bug and returned…and got more and more into California,” she says, mentioning the evolving art, music, food, fashion and entertainment scenes as draws. “California has an incredible soft power footprint not only in street style, but in all the creative dimensions. This is what brings me here.”

In recent years the museum has hosted a number of notable exhibitions of work by Frey, by designer and architect Alexander Girard, by transcendental artist Agnes Pelton and by California painter Wayne Thiebaud. The Aluminaire House, built in 1931 as a full-scale model house, was unveiled as a permanent exhibit at Palm Springs Art Museum in 2024.Still in the process of looking for her own home, Vendredi actually got to stay at Frey House II for a couple of weeks.

“Christine has such a deep expertise in art, modern architecture and glass — all disciplines that hold widespread interest in our community,” says Adam Lerner, JoAnn McGrath executive director of Palm Springs Art Museum. “It almost seemed too good to be true that Christine checked every box on our wishlist. We are thrilled for Christine to lead the curatorial vision of the museum.”Although museum development is not her role, her contacts in the luxury fashion world also can’t hurt.
