Gallery Kreo
Paris
Opening on January 15 '11 at Gallery kreo in Paris, 'a new generation of lights' features a selection of recent graduates from Lausanne Cantonal School of Art (L'ÉCAL) in Switzerland. After a decade under Pierre Keller’s direction, the L'ÉCAL has arguably become one of the best schools of design in the world.
Galerie kreo is dedicated to artistic exploration in design, and has exclusive international rights to remarkable limited edition pieces by such luminaries as Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec, Pierre Charpin, Hella Jongerius, Jasper Morrison, and Martin Szekely. Galerie kreo sees itself as a 'research laboratory'.
Didier Krzentowski, expert in design and contemporary art, and his wife Clémence Krzentowski have brought together a collection of furniture and objects by internationally renowned contemporary designers.
In 2005, an exhibition of students' work of the ECAL, selected by Ronan Bouroullec, was presented at the Galerie kreo for the first time. Now, in 2011, the Galerie kreo is once again happy to welcome A New Generation of Lights, the new "bright" creations of young talents of the school.
