Since the 1990s Jean Prouvé’s furniture and mobile houses have fetched enormous results at global auctions that went hand in hand with a general reappraisal of his work. One of the major galleries dealing with Prouvé originals is Galerie Patrick Seguin in Paris whose namesake ranks among the leading experts in everything related to the engineer’s furniture and mobile architecture. Therefore it is no wonder that the present (sort of) catalogue raisonné of Prouvé’s furniture was published by the latter. The two volume set is an updated version of the initial 2007 edition and features a comprehensive catalogue of Prouvé’s furniture in volume one and a selection of interiors furnished with his key pieces as well as an overview of his prefab, movable houses in volume two.
Organized along ten categories the first volume provides a comprehensive overview of the sheer variety of Prouvé’s furniture: chairs, armchairs, office chairs, stools and benches, desks, school furniture, tables, lights, beds as well as interior furnishings and storage are testament to his broad interest in solutions for basically every aspect of furniture design. Each design is presented on the basis of a piece from the Seguin collection representing the most original version of each piece, supplemented by the editors with drawings, vintage photographs, advertisements and a brief history of the genesis and specifications of it. Preceding the catalogue are interviews with Prouvé’s daughter Catherine, Renzo Piano and design historian Raymond Guidot who offer not only insights into his personality and design ethos but also the intrinsic logics of his designs that resulted from Prouvé’s natural understanding of the material properties of metal and wood.
Of course the present tomes are also gorgeously designed and contain a wealth of profound information about every single piece of Prouvé furniture. What’s more is that through the countless detail photographs the reader gets a real understanding of the construction of each piece and how these sprung from the mind of one of the most original designers/engineers/architects of the 20th century. Worth every penny!

New York Art Fair in May at a glance
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Three art fairs were held one after another in Manhattan, New York, from the 5th (local time), the first week of May. NADA (New Art Dealers Alliance), Independent, and TEFAF (The European Fine Art Fair) art fairs are the main characters. Each of these three art fairs has distinct characteristics, so you can experience the richness of the New York art world. In Tepaf, you can enjoy a lot of works by masters of the secondary market (secondary market) as well as European antiques and designs, while Nada and Independent are the primary markets (primary market) where you can see the works of artists currently active. show
TEFAF, literally 'European Art Fair', is an art fair that first started in Maastricht, Netherlands in 1988. Originally, he focused on works of art such as antique art, design, and old masters, but gradually expanded his scope to fine art and modern art. I moved to New York in the fall of 2016. It was used as a weapons warehouse and started to be opened in the Park Avenue Armory building with 140 years of history. Museum-grade antiques and modern art displayed in a meaningful building give you the feeling of traveling back in time.
The inside view of TEFAF, New York, which opened with the VIP opening on the 5th (local time). In Teppaf, which started in the Netherlands, you can see antiques, designs, and old master works that are different from other art fairs.
Tepaf started with the VIP opening on the 5th and was held until the 10th. A total of 91 galleries from 14 countries participated in this year's tepaf. Bologna-based Galleria D'arte Maggirore brought in 1940s works by Italian maestro Giorgio Morandi, while New York art dealer David Tunick worked with Marc Chagall. Chagall's 1917 self-portrait, which attracted the attention of many visitors from the first day. The galleries that brought not only art but also various jewelery ornaments and design products also provided various attractions to Tepaf. In particular, Patrick Seguin, a dealer in Paris who has been dealing with designer Jean Prouve's furniture for over a decade, said the 50's Jean Prouvet table was installed in the Air France office building in the Congo, once a French colony. I brought it out and added something to see.

Synopsis : (Download) Jean Royere Free [epub]$$
In 1931, aged 29, Jean Royere (1902-1981) resigned from a comfortable position in the import-export trade in order to set up business as an interior designer. He learnt his new trade in the cabinetmaking workshops of the Faubourg Saint-Antoine in Paris. In 1934, he designed the new layout of the Brasserie Carlton on the Champs Elysees and found immediate success, embarking upon an international career that was to endure for nearly half a century. Royere tackled all kinds of decoration work and opened branches in the Near East and Latin America; among his patrons were King Farouk, King Hussein of Jordan and the Shah of Iran, who entrusted him with the interior design of their palaces. The Royere style is a wonderful amalgam of bright, cheery colors, subtly organic forms and precious materials. Compact and fluid, robust and delicate, Royere's chairs, lamps, chandeliers, sofas and desks exude a sensuous confidence, suggesting both comfort and alertness. This superbly produced, linen-bound, two-volume boxed monograph would have made Royere proud. The first volume explores the designer's work across four themes inspired by his creations: 'The Vegetal Realm,' 'The Animal World,' The Imaginative Realm' and 'Line and Design.' In addition to prefaces by Jacques Lacoste and Patrick Seguin, this volume contains interviews with Lorenz Baumer, Beatrice Salmon, and Christian Lacroix--by art historian and journalist Francoise Claire Prodhon--and a chapter looking back to the Jean Royere exhibition at the Sonnabend Gallery in New York in 2008. The second volume opens with a 1963 interview with Royere by Pascal Renous, and then presents the 'Jean Royere Repertoire': 380 items of furniture and other creations accompanied by detailed references and illustrations of variants. The volume is rounded off by a sketchbook offering 156 hitherto unpublished Royere drawings. This authoritative and sumptuous publication is the last word on this midcentury master.

Decorative-arts dealers Laurence and Patrick Seguin have used over two decades of experience when meticulously piecing together their 1620s Parisian apartment. The couple managed to create a sophisticated and sensible home which tributes their mutual passion for modern art. With a layout designed somewhere between a functioning gallery and minimalist’s home, room after room exhibits a selection of works consisting of paintings, sculptures and highly sought-after furniture. Inside the living room a Jeff Koons mirrored flower blooms between the doors leading to the study and entrance hall; a Charlotte Perriand Tokyo bench showcases colourful ceramics by Georges Jouve and a sculpture made of stainless-steel utensils by Subodh Gupta.

Saint Laurent Rive Droite brings a cultural dimension to designer Anthony Vaccarello’s fashion.
Tumblr media
Revisiting the spirit that animated the brand's historic collections, the store offers a fusion of fashion with other forms of creativity.
Tumblr media

Since coming on board as the creative director of Saint Laurent in 2016, Anthony Vaccarello has brought a fresh, modern vision to the French fashion brand while subtly recalling the spirit that animated its creation in 1961.
Pulsating with light, color, and sound, his runway shows echo the bravura presentations that, decades ago, earned Yves Saint Laurent more than one standing ovation. Vaccarello’s clothes speak to today’s Saint Laurent woman—powerful, opinionated, and unapologetically sexy—in a similar manner, channeling the implicit eroticism of the brand’s 1970s collections and occasionally referencing some of the same muses of that era.
But while Vaccarello has garnered significant attention for his presentations of clothes, he has also been busy behind the scenes. The designer’s newest brainchild is Saint Laurent Rive Droite, a boutique located in the heart of Paris’s high-end Right Bank shopping district. Conceived to showcase Saint Laurent’s unique creative legacy, the concept shop offers a specially curated selection of art and design items in addition to the brand’s clothing.
“Saint Laurent Rive Droite is a cultural and lifestyle destination,” Vaccarello told Artnet News. “The idea here is to show different facets of the house. It’s really about bringing my vision of Saint Laurent to the biggest audience possible and channeling the Saint Laurent spirit.”
Tumblr media

The boutique opened in June on the Rue Saint-Honoré. (A sister store is now open on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills.) Its large windows offer a clear view into an interior marked by Vaccarello’s signature colors: black-and-white marble for the floors and walls, clear glass for the partitions, and gold-toned fixtures that make a strong visual impact both from the street and when inside the store.
The eclectic nature of Rive Droite’s design ethos greets visitors upon entry, beginning with a towering wooden Senufo bird sculpture stationed in the front window. The African art piece, positioned to peer over the Rue Saint-Honoré, hints at the assorted collection of objects that awaits visitors inside the space, while also paying tribute to the great art and design collection amassed by Yves Saint Laurent and his longtime partner, Pierre Bergé. (The bird is on loan from the Galerie Lucas Ratton—the same gallery where Saint Laurent and Bergé reportedly acquired their own Senufo bird, the first piece to enter their collection.)
Tumblr media

The store’s name, spelled out in shiny brass letters on the window, will no doubt speak more meaningfully to those old enough to remember that, in 1966, Saint Laurent shook up the fashion world by opening Rive Gauche. A reference to the bohemian spirit of the Left Bank, Rive Gauche introduced a then-revolutionary concept for a house of haute couture, namely a ready-to-wear line of mass-produced clothing that catered to a larger clientele. It was a move to democratize fashion, and an oblique affront to the reactionary attitudes of the fashion houses on the Right Bank.
In many ways, Rive Droite has sprung from the same desire for creative evolution that brought Rive Gauche into being. It is a vehicle for Vaccarello’s overhaul of fashion and a new outlet for his ideas. It is also where the designer is revamping retail by expanding the store into a personally curated space where fashion coexists with art, technology, music, and literature. Through the shop, Vaccarello hopes to democratize fashion by incorporating elements of the broader cultural arena. “We want this store to be inclusive,” he says.
Tumblr media

To that end, Rive Droite is designed to make visitors feel at ease as they browse the clothing, boutique-exclusive products, accessories, and jewelry on display. In addition, there are gadgets, seasonal objects, a bar, and a musical corner. Most interestingly, though, there is thought-provoking art, on loan from galleries, to admire or buy onsite.
On the ground floor, a drawing done in ballpoint pen by Alberto Giacometti, titled Head (1950–55), greets visitors near a set of black-and-white Polaroids by Robert Mapplethorpe. The photos depict bound male bodies from the artist’s “S&M Gear” (1972) and “Tony, London” (1973) series, in addition to bats from “Helen Marden’s Bats” (1974). All the art reflects Vaccarello’s personal taste and curatorial range in the retail space, where he has been given carte blanche to assemble works—no matter how risqué—of his choosing.
Tumblr media

Upstairs, Sterling Ruby’s Vampire 118 (2013), a wall-mounted installation made of leather and fiberfill, echoes the minimalism of a Takis sculpture from 1974 that is placed near a Pierre Jeanneret living-room set on loan from Galerie Patrick Seguin. There, visitors can lounge around on midcentury modern furniture and leaf through new and vintage art books, including tomes on Saint Laurent’s past couture collections.
Contrasting shapes and textures have long been recurring motifs in Saint Laurent collections, and Vaccarello has embraced the juxtaposition in his choice of art, too. On a mirror, Ed Ruscha’s gritty Omaha to New York (2000) hangs beside a grainy 1996 drawing by Richard Serra on handmade paper, both of which contrast with the polished golden surfaces of Lucio Fontana’s twin Concetto Spaziale Natura sculptures (1967).
The presence of art is not incidental to the boutique—in fact, an artistic project served as the main inspiration for Rive Droite. In 2018, Vaccarello collaborated with the Japanese photographer Daido Moriyama to produce a series of 77 black-and-white portraits of subtly provocative women, each of whom possesses the street-smart attitude attributed to the modern-day Saint Laurent-styled girl.
Tumblr media

Last year, the portraits were exhibited in a glass installation in the gardens of the Palais Royal, and now Moriyama is back at Rive Droite through two works: a photograph from his well-known “Tights” series (1987) and a 2001 silkscreen featuring a series of lips.
“From the start, I have seen Saint Laurent more as an attitude rather than a literal reference to the past, so it’s really more of a lifestyle,” says Vaccarello. “It’s about invoking that spirit. We want [the experience] to be more immersive for the consumer, and possibly reach some people who wouldn’t necessarily come to Saint Laurent, but who could—through this boutique—better understand the universe I’m creating.”

Auction Preview: Phillips - Modern Masters
Phillips is a powerhouse when it comes to 20th Century Design, and this sale Modern Masters, as well as it’s sister sale Design feature some absolute treasures. Let me take you through some of my favorites:
Tumblr media
Lot 202: Gio Ponti, Distex Armchair (model #807), accompanied by a rare footstool. £30,000 - £40,000
This set is absolutely beautiful. The teal tones in the fabric are throughly indicative of Ponti’s mid century preferences (this set was completed in 1954). The swooping angles of the foot stool and chair reflect off of each other in a way that is truly stunning. It almost seems as though Evil Kneivel could launch himself off of the foot stool and up over the chair. The set is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. 
Tumblr media
Lot 205: Carlo Mollino, Pair of Conference Room Chairs from the Lattes Publishing House. £160,000 - £220,000
I am so, so comfortable just looking at these chairs, made in 1951. There is something about the sense of tension in Mollino’s chairs that make them look so harsh but so welcoming at the same time, and these two really capture that je ne sais quoi. The tension of the bent wood  give this chair a sense of restrained movement, but yet you still want to sit on them. These two chairs were part of a set of 12, originally designed for the Lattes Publishing House, an institution with which Mollino had close ties. Additionally, they have a clear provenance having been in the possession of a descendant of a publishing house employee. I could easily see these selling for well past the low estimate, as an individual, but slightly different chair sold at Sotheby’s in December for $336,500. 
Tumblr media
Lot 207: Jean Royère, Important Trèfle Sideboard £70,000 - £90,000
This sideboard is a prime example of the playfulness that Royère explored throughout his career. Completed circa 1942, this sideboard’s red, curving panels, like many of Royère’s mid-century pieces, bring to mind something fun and colorful, if not toy-like. Despite the ways in which Royère’s aesthetic is now sometimes seen as kitchy or unsophisticated, the red leather covered panels on this sideboard are just too beautiful to pass up. 
Tumblr media
Lot 210: Emile - Jacques Ruhlmann, Rare & Important Ceiling Light (Model #3542NR) £120,000 - £150,000
I have always absolutely loved Ruhlmann. He was a master cabinet maker and had a way with wood unlike anyone else. It is always a pleasant surprise to see a Ruhlmann piece that is so throughly of the moment, such as this. While Ruhlmann used exotic woods for his cabinets, tables, and chairs, he frequently experimented with other materials when creating lighting. By 1930, when this ceiling fixture was made, there was a tension in the design community. While some, like Ruhlmann were wedded to the idea of using traditional materials, such as wood, others, like Charlotte Perriand, were pushing furniture making forward with the use of metal. Here, Ruhlmann expertly blends what was a thoroughly and completely modern metal structure with beautiful pieces of alabaster. This ceiling fixture is so perfectly Art Deco, while also being stunningly beautiful. I could see this going towards the high estimate, as the Ruhlmann market is always competitive and a piece such as this one, which is both rare and exceedingly beautiful, creates the kind of bidding wars auction houses dream of. This is by far my favorite piece in this sale.
Tumblr media
Lot 213: Alberto Giacometti Tete de Femme table lamp. £100,000 - £150,000
This example of Alberto Giacometti’s Tete de Femme lamps, cast in bronze, features a more rare dark patina. This darkness, adds to the beauty of the femme, as she now appears sullen and mysterious, a quality that does not come through with lighter bronze and plaster examples. In addition to being a great example of one of Giacometti’s signature styles, this lamp was in the personal collection of Lauren Bacall, an actress from the golden age of Hollywood. This particular lamp was sold in December of 2015 at Bonham’s for $112,500, and as the Giacometti market has continued to explode in the months since, it is very possible that because of both the provenance and unusual color that this lamp will sell for a fairly high price. It is also registered with the Giacometti Committee and is accompanied by an original copy of their authenticity letter. 
Tumblr media
Lot 218: A.A. Rateau Dining Set from hôtel particulier Thalheimer, Paris. £1,000,000 - £1,500,000.
These chairs, executed in 1931, show the ways in which Rateau’s work in wood was vastly different from what he completed in bronze. His bronze works were heavy, highly ornamented interpretations of Classical forms, while his work using wood was more subdued, and shows less of the individualistic traits that Rateau is now known for. Rateau has always been classified by scholars as someone who operated within the circles of other Art Deco masters, but who truly created his own unique style. While that is thoroughly true for his work in bronze, such as the pool chairs from the Blumental apartment in New York, you can see here that his work with wood, out of all of his creations, is what most clearly shows his influences from the trends of the time. The legs of the chairs however, show the ornamentation and curving lines that Rateau favored. While Rateau’s pieces can fetch incredible prices both at auction and in galleries, his work in wood tends to sell for considerably less. Additionally, most people who buy Rateau pieces are highly focused Rateau collectors. They own multiple pieces of his work. Because this is the only Rateau piece in this sale, I see it as possible that this lot receives no bids at all. Despite being culturally significant and beautiful, at times it can be tough for an auction house to sell Rateau pieces, especially ones in this price range. 
Tumblr media
Lot 225: Jean Prouvé 6x9 Demountable House with Pyrobal Fireplace. £700,000 - £900,000 
By far the most ambitious lot in this auction is lot 225, one of Jean Prouvé’s Demountable Houses, consigned by Galerie Patrick Seguin, who has been featuring a wonderful series of timelapse video’s of the house’s construction on their Instagram page. Commissioned by the French government in the aftermath of the Second World War, these houses were meant to be easily transported and assembled. At this time, there was a huge need for housing for refugees and other homeless victims of the war. This particular lot is a prime example of what Prouvé created for the state. The parts were manufactured to be standardized, and also to reduce the use of steal, a scarce resource in the postwar era. While this lot is clearly of huge significance, one cannot help but wonder what someone would do after purchasing this. While I think the estimate is not far off if there are bids, I feel that the only shot of selling this lot is for it to be purchased by a gallery or museum. Perhaps there is a very wealthy, very enthusiastic Prouvé collector who needs to put the cherry on top of their collection, but that seems a bit doubtful to me. As someone who has spent a lot of time coordinating fine art shipments, I can’t even imagine the cost of shipping this lot.
