You love ‘L’Anamour,’ and you love a glass of rouge. The two come together at the ‘Gainsbourg Soiree’ wine tasting and silent auction at the Pacific Design Center on Nov. 4.

Los Angeles Wine Tasting and Here Is Elsewhere gallery are paying tribute to the French singer with an exhibition of photographs of Gainsbourg and a French wine and cheese pairing.

Photographs by artists and friends of Gainsbourg will be on display; artists also have been commissioned to present their own interpretations of Gainsbourg, who died in 1991. Works are from Frank Habicht, Kami, Vanessa Atlan, Tom Recchion, Jules Muck, Robert Schwan, Remy Bond and more, curated by Yann Perreau (director of Here Is Elsewhere) with Timothee Verrecchia (producer of ‘Monsieur Gainsbourg Revisited’ and curator of Gainsbourg exhibitions in Paris, Tokyo and New York).

7 to 9 p.m. Nov. 4. Tickets are available online, $64 (until midnight Wednesday, $48). For more info, email info@lawinetasting.com.
