Marion Friedmann Gallery is excited to be a part of the trailblazing Alcova event in Milan with selected pieces by Stephan Buxbaum and Franz Ferro. A new collection of cast concrete cabinets and furniture that evoke a surprising sensation in contrast to the softness and sensibility of nature and plant specimens cast onto them.
The ’stone’ pieces perfectly blend into the overgrown and concrete beauty and deserted ruin-aesthetic of the Alcova site, where nature has become a charming part of the architecture.

Read MoreVOLUME vs VOID
Gallery participation at art fair ESTE ARTE URUGUAY online, 15 Jan-30 April 2021. The gallery presents 4 artists working on the intersection of design and sculpture. For VOLUME VS VOID, we selected sculptural and design works that play with the notion of volume, void and space.

Volume delivers objects that give pleasure in a void we might experience in such challenging times, like ours.

We all spend more time at home due to the current crisis and tend to value our precious objects around us much more.
