  • Gaetano Pesce L’Abbraccio March 21St - May 25Th, 2013
    GAETANO PESCE L’ABBRACCIO MARCH 21ST - MAY 25TH, 2013 Opening Reception Thursday March 21st, the artist will be present. NEW YORK – Visionary architect, designer and artist Gaetano Pesce will have his first solo, New York exhibition in 25 years at Fred Torres Collaborations from March 21-May 25, 2013. The show focuses on issues of love and empathy, be it for ourselves, each other or the world, that have been important themes in Pesce’s work. L’ABBRACCIO, (The Hug) the name of the exhibition, refers to a cabinet designed by Pesce in 2009 of two people locked in an embrace. In addition to its “namesake” cabinet, the exhibition will feature some of Pesce’s rarely seen drawings from the 1970s, maquettes, lighting and furniture. An opening reception will take place on Thursday, March 21 from 6-8 pm. Since the 1960s, Gaetano Pesce has been challenging the dogma of traditional aesthetics by embracing an art, architecture and design of expressiveness that is a commentary on reality, color, new materials, figurative representation and political commitment. His poetic imagination and his continued use of humor and irony to attack the standardization of the mass-produced object and architecture set him apart from all other designers and architects. Pesce continually exploits the technical qualities of materials such as resins, polyurethanes and silicones in order to create objects and projects that have a point of view and make a strong artistic statement. “The exhibition showcases the narrative and heart in Pesce’s work,” says Fred Torres. “Pesce’s interests go beyond beautiful and functional objects.

  • TEFAF Maastricht 2020
    TEFAF Maastricht 2020 As the world’s premier fine art and antiques fair opens, The Design Edit reports on some of the collectible design masterworks on offer. By Anna Sansom March 3, 2020 Ettore Sottsass, ‘Lava’, 1957, produced by Bitossi COURTESY: Friedman Benda Anna Sansom, “TEFAF Maastricht 2020,” The Design Edit, March 3, 2020. DESIGN GALLERIES ARE making their growing presence felt at TEFAF, The European Fine Art Fair in Maastricht. TEFAF’s 33rd edition sees the number of design exhibitors rise to 20, the largest number in its history. Although this represents a fraction of TEFAF’s overall 278 exhibitors (the majority spanning antiquities, Old Masters, Modern and contemporary art), it indicates design’s increasing popularity among erudite collectors with eclectic taste, as well as the fair’s aim for diversification. Gaetano Pesce, ‘Arca Desk’, 1972, produced by Bracciodiferro COURTESY: Friedman Benda TEFAF Design was launched in 2009 with nine exhibitors – although François Laffanour of Galerie Downtown in Paris began participating in 2005 in a different section of the fair. “It’s not the quantity but the quality that really matters,” Laffanour says about the number of design galleries.
