sottsass drawings in paris

Man,
do the kids love Mr. Sottsass or what?
Too bad he is not still alive to see this latest embrace.
He would be so into it 
since he always 
embraced youth culture
and
because of that,
he always seemed much younger 
than his years,
both in spirit and through his work.
All these images are from a show of 
drawings, lithographs and watercolors
at the
Galerie Essere Suzette Ricciotti
in Paris.
It runs September 11th thru October 26th.
I'm going, 
and if you live in Paris
make sure to check it out,
all the kids will be there!

(Thanks for the heads up Marco!!!)

  1. Another nice post about Ettore. He was so much more than Memphis. In fact his earlier and later designs sell higher at auction than is 80s Memphis. Hope his 80s design catches up in value.
