On Wednesday, December 14, Piasa is pleased to organize an auction dedicated to the rich and evolutive work of Vincent Darré.
Vincent Darré's art of living is also a life choice: the joy of living! His whimsical creations have a strong style, and talent and elegance are always present in the art of this inexhaustible jack-of-all-trades. True to himself, his style, and his dreams, Vincent continues his journey and invites us along for the ride.
Following the success of our auction back in November 2016, "Vincent Darré, Dadaist Extravagance," Piasa is once again inviting Vincent to unveil another aspect of his work for the duration of one sale. This time, it is a creative approach that questions aesthetic conventions in the manner of the Surrealists. The selection he made with the experts at Piasa also emphasizes the art of drawing - of which a number of works are presented - as well as that of the manufacturers and skilled craftsmen with whom he collaborates.

Estimate: 12000 / 18000 €
"An auction is like turning over a new leaf, and I like this idea of renewal. I kept this reflex from Karl Lagerfeld; it allows me to reinvent myself and to give a second life to the objects I have drawn and collected. It's like an adventure for them where they fly away to other horizons. Artists' proofs, prototypes, watercolors, collages; my antiquing obsession will manifest itself at Piasa, where I'll stage my apartment, redecorating the second floor where visitors will discover my dreams and can share them by taking objects with them!" - Vincent Darré
