First look at Karl Lagerfeld’s debut sculpture exhibition

“Architectures is an art collection of functional sculptures designed by Karl Lagerfeld and inspired by Antiquity,” according to the Carpenters Workshop Gallery. “Referred to as the origin of beauty, culture and modernity by the designer.”

“Evoking a contemporary architectural landscape with Greek origins, the unique pieces combine the precision of canonical proportions born from the use of the golden ratio and the most noble material, marble. The ensemble of gueridons, tables, lamps, consoles, fountains and mirrors materialize the perfect balance of classical foundations with a present-day vibe, like a modern mythology.”

Shifting between the antique and the contemporary, the icons of classics and the finest present skills, the black and white architectonic creations embody Karl Lagerfeld’s timeless monochromatic style.

Karl Lagerfeld’s first ever sculptural works exhibition, Architectures, at the Carpenters Workshop Gallery | London, runs from 24th January until 8th March 2019.
