Jean-Charles de Castelbajac
Creator
"The dining table is an ocean of conversation, of emotion, of love and sharing. Each plate is a poem. Timeless blue links the past with this evening. It is like a picture emerging, that might only exist when we are all around the table together again. Each guest becomes a piece of a mosaic called the "Sentimental Archipelago", spawned from the magical meeting of two paths, namely my imagination, and the wondrous know-how of the Manufacture de Gien."
Jean-Charles de Castelbajac, a visionary trailblazer, was one step ahead in anticipating what were to become the basics of today’s new world of creation : art and fashion, misappropriation and collaboration.
His multifaceted work in the field of art, fashion and design, is articulated in a short range of colors : blue, yellow and red. His artwork and designs are infused with a passion for history, for the world of childhood and Pop art.
At the September 2022 Design Week in Paris he presents designs from his collaboration on furnishings with Maison Dada and his Pop sculptures with Leblon Delienne. From 2018 to 2022 he creates collections for United Colors of Benetton.
His art was displayed at an exhibition in 2022 entitled People of Tomorrow held at the children’s gallery in the Pompidou Centre in Paris. In 2023 this exhibition will move to Shanghai to the West Bund Museum project.
