Mathieu Lehanneur
Born 1974
Conceptual designer, Mathieu Lehanneur develops objects that blend design, science, art and technology. His research on therapeutic objects, including his famous air purifier, made his reputation in 2009. He innovates today by publishing a strong and poetic furniture of exception where the marble becomes liquid like water.

Ocean Memories - Special order
Estimate: 18 000 / 25 000 €
Franck Evennou
Born 1959
Designer-artist, he has been working for thirty years with bronze, which he reveals through a dreamlike dimension inspired by nature. His style is that of a sculptor who knows how to apply his art without being encumbered by borders: sculptures, furniture, objects or jewelry are only pretexts to express himself through dreamlike and organic forms. Published in a few copies, his creations are molded by the foundry to which he has been faithful for twenty-five years, just like the Avant-Scène gallery which represents him.

Pia Manu
XX
Belgian artist associated with Flemish Brutalism, Pia Manu worked in his studio in Ingelmunster from the 1950s to the 1980s. There he created pieces with primitive forms, animated by a work of texture mixing bronze, slate, copper, resin and ceramic. These materials, sometimes punctuated with semi-precious stones, animate the surfaces of low tables, bas-reliefs, fireplaces and abstract sculptures.
