Ron Arad at the Downtown Gallery, Paris

Good afternoon contemporary art lovers!
Lemme tell you about this wonderful exhibition: Ron Arad at the Downtown Gallery in Paris. Ron Arad (born 1951) is an Israeli architect, artist and designer.


He's well known for his "furniture/sculpture". He only realized unique pieces or limited edition and some of his tables climb walls instead of being centered in a room! It's up to the owner to hang the "table" on a wall if he's afraid to damage the piece by using it as a coffee table. Also all the shapes are biomorphic and always made in steel, his favorite medium. one remembers his famous shelves Bookworm (1994) which is still produced by the Italian company Kartell. Exhibition runs til the 1st of December...
