Pierre Paulin Celebrates the Big 8-0!
Get off your Mushroom Stool and put on a festive beret, because kicking off today at the French Cultural Services’ U.S. headquarters in New York City is a gala 80th birthday celebration and exhibit in honor of French designer Pierre Paulin. The cake, ice cream, and Ribbon Chairs will be around through January 25th. Meanwhile, across the pond, an exhibit of Paulin’s furniture runs through December 16th at Azzedine Alaia‘s Paris gallery.
Paulin’s “wedding of the sinuous, brilliantly colored prints with the sculptured furniture is so successful that it is hard to imagine one without the other,” raved a 1967 New York Times article that helped bring the designer to the attention of the general public.
