Ateliers Courbet is pleased to announce ‘CLAY’, an exhibition introducing Belgian designer Pieter Maes’ latest series.
About
The collections result from the gallery’s Editions Courbet program, which initiates and fostering collaborations between contemporary artists/designers and master artisans around the world. The exhibition will open February 13th, 2024.Maes' designs for Editions Courbet unfold an ensemble of monolithic forms that are initially hand-modeled by the artist before they evolve to their final shapes through the hands of the artisan collaborators. Executed with time-honored techniques and carefully selected materials, each piece emphasizes the artisanal dexterity from which it resulted, with consistent, detailed simplicity. Maes’s work often draws inspiration from the timeless elegance and appeal found in the simple forms from the Neolithic and Cycladic Periods, or in the works of other 20th-century artists and sculptors sharing similar inspirations.
