MATTER and SHAPE 6th-9th March with Fondation Arp-Taeuber
Join us in Paris for MATTER and SHAPE, 6th-9th March, where we shall be presenting our special collaboration with ‘musée de France’ Fondation Arp-Taeuber; showcasing handmade rugs translated from original designs of Sophie Taeuber-Arp.
MATTER AND SHAPE- Neighbour to Première Classe, one of Paris’s most discerning gatherings, MATTER and SHAPE annually welcomes design collectors, architects, interior designers, decorators, journalists and tastemakers from across the worlds of design, fashion, art, architecture and luxury.
FONDATION ARP-TAEUBER – The atelier and former of the pioneering artists Jean Arp and Sophie Taeuber in Meudon, served as a central meeting point of the European avant-garde, creating exchanges between with Max Ernst, Joan Miró, André Breton, Robert and Sonia Delaunay, Tristan Tzara, Nelly and Theo van Doesburg, and Marcel Duchamp. Today, the foundation preserves one of modernism’s most intimate and significant legacies.
ORIGINAL ARTWORKS – Visit us the Fondation Arp-Taeuber exhibit at MATTER and SHAPE, to see the original artworks next to our handmade rugs – both Christopher Farr, made to order, and also CF Editions, available in stock – and other special production pieces.
