The objects designed by Anthony Guerrée for De La Espada explore craftsmanship and geometry in bold sculptural forms inspired by the designer's recurring dream of spending a starry night in Joshua Tree Park, contemplating the asterism of the Summer Triangle. Reflecting the designer's affinity for fine arts, design, and craftsmanship, the pieces showcase artistic lines and innovative craft techniques while providing comfort and functionality. "I am very proud and excited to exhibit my De La Espada works for the first time in my hometown, Paris. Furthermore, at Amelie Maison d’Art, which is my favorite art gallery in Paris. Organizing a furniture exhibition in an art gallery like Amelie Maison d’Art holds deep significance as it blurs the traditional boundaries between art and design. Each piece of furniture becomes a functional work of art, harmoniously merging aesthetics and utility," declares Anthony Guerrée. "Throughout our 30 years of activity, art has had a growing influence on us, particularly in terms of our perception of color and the few places where art and craftsmanship have intersected in recent art history, as seen in the work of Anni Albers. We are delighted to exhibit in this magnificent gallery and share the space with inspiring artists," adds Luis De Oliveira, co-founder of De La Espada.
