Presentation of Pierre Bonnefille
...and his new creations from emblematic series ‘Bronze Paitings’ and ‘Furoshiki Drawings’ in partnership with ELLE DECORATION and SIMPLE
At April 18 the design and art space Fifth Avenue in Moscow had honor to present Pierre Bonnefille and his new creations stemming from his
emblematic series ‘Bronze Paitings’ and ‘Furoshiki Drawings’ in partnership with ELLE DECORATION and SIMPLE. This evening the guests of the event – professionals of the Russian design industry – architects, decorators andcollectors of art and hi-end design had a talk of the Maître d’Art about his work, his perception of colors, textures related to interior design.
The collaboration between Maison Liaigre and Pierre Bonnefille started over 25 years ago when Christian Liaigre himself discovered at that time the young artist and his creations. After having realized big mural compositions for interiors, Christian asked Pierre to develop his creations for his home furniture collection. These creations, Tulles and Lacquered finishes are now a part of Liaigre’s DNA. Since this time, Pierre is always exploring new possibilities in close collaboration with design team of Maison Liaigre, creating very refine textures in perfect harmony with the sober aesthetic spirit of our House.
During his talk Pierre Bonnefille demonstrated his personal approach of color, texture and light adapted to interior design through some emblematic realizations of his own. The lecture was followed by guests’ questions about working on the projects of world stars of architecture and design – Christian Liaigre, Bruno Moinard, David Collins, Andrée Puttman, Yves Taralon and others, the philosophy of the artist, about the deepest sources of his inspiration and plans for the future.
The evening ended with a cocktail in the society of the famous artist, and here Fifth Avenue with the support of SIMPLE, the leading Moscow winery house, showed originality: everyone knows champagne, but not everyone knows that in the homeland of the famous painter and designer there are other worthy sparkling crémants. SIMPLE offered guests of the event some elegant options from Burgundy and Alsace, thanks to which everyone increased the aftertaste of lecture and exhibition in the best French traditions.
