Paris 2024. Pharrell Williams: ‘Bringing Art Back to the Games’
Some of the disciplines that have long been present at the Olympic Games still cause controversy among commentators and fans. For example, artistic gymnastics or figure skating, which some believe are on the border between sport and art, which is difficult to include in any kind of score.
Meanwhile, Pharrell Williams – musician, producer and creative director of the men’s line of the Louis Vuitton fashion house – has no doubts about the importance of the presence of various fields of art at the Olympic Games. During the opening ceremony of this year’s Olympic and Paralympic Games in Paris, he was one of many stars carrying the Olympic torch.
The American has no objection to Olympic medals being awarded in fields such as architecture or visual arts. He shared his opinion the day before the opening ceremony of this year’s games.
