Christian Astuguevieille – today at Gallery Space Verney House in London for the launch of Couture Lab

Dear Shaded Viewers,

I just returned late last night from Santiago Spain so it was not possible for me to be present in London for the Couture Lab launch with Christian Astuguevieille and Maurizio Galante – An Artistic Dialogue Mirror Canvases and Geometric Illusions. Gallery Space, Verney House 1b Hollywood Road, London SW10. The exhibition runs until June 15th.

I think that the pink lady will be there.

Because I am thinking about the exhibit I have decided to take you back for another visit to the atelier of Christian Astuguevieille.

An original technique here used to make a frame but I’ve seen an entire panel in marine blue, a work in progress for a villa in Italy, quite amazing to see. Each of these tiny elements is made by hand.

Christian has created a limited edition for CoutureLab that includes a number of mirrors in all shapes and sizes. The mirrors are a part of an imaginary, symbolic world, created with red spiked wood, woven rope and natural cord.

Later,

Diane
