Atelier Pierre Bonnefille

Article number 10160056

Atelier Pierre Bonnefille is a bilingual French-English illustrated publication devoted to the work and creative universe of French artist, designer and maître d'art Pierre Bonnefille. The publication presents an artistic practice situated at the intersection of painting, sculpture, design, interior architecture and the decorative arts. Bonnefille is particularly known for his exploration of matter, colour and light and for surfaces created through carefully developed combinations of pigments, minerals and other natural materials. Inspired by landscapes, geology, architecture and the colours and textures encountered during his travels, he develops distinctive finishes and objects in which material itself becomes an essential means of expression. The publication offers an introduction to the atmosphere and working methods of his Paris atelier and illustrates the relationship between artistic experimentation and craftsmanship that characterises his practice. Wall surfaces, panels, furniture, objects and sculptural works demonstrate how traditional techniques can be combined with contemporary aesthetics and architectural settings. The contribution by Brice d'Antras places Bonnefille's work and approach in context. / Atelier Pierre Bonnefille est une publication illustrée bilingue français-anglais consacrée au travail et à l'univers créatif de l'artiste, designer et maître d'art français Pierre Bonnefille.
