There was an exhibition in Paris that displayed the Artistic, historical and cultural phenomena of buttons, including a large part of the collection of Loic Allio, who wrote the book Boutons. Also some buttons from the collection of Millicent Safro were displayed from June 4 through August 14, 2010.


Here are some highlights from this exhibition that we attended.  Click on link to see the slide show of photographs by Deborah Hanson. These are not officials pictures of the exhibition, they are Deborah’s personal initiative.
