Serving Suggestions (2001)

Abstract paintings associated with tasteful design. Four proposals for interior arrangements along the lines of furniture showrooms. Should the decor be seen as a picture or the picture as an element of the decor?

 

"These photographs evoke the historical relations between painting and decorative arts since the beginnings of modernism. Also the links between abstract art and design, later towards 1950 - 1960, when the art world became more and more confronted with and permeable to mass commercial production."

Sylvie Couderc.
