DESIGN AND ART EDITION: THE BENCH, AN EXPERIMENTAL FONT SPECIMEN
(1ST FLOOR)

The bench for 6 or 7 people is an experimental font specimen created for the exhibition ALICEGAVINSERVICES™ and designed after one of the ‘free form’ font presented in Room 1.
‘Free form’ comes from Gaetano Pesce approach to design and desire to break the mold of standardization of things :« (…) forms that are never really the same, innovative in their structure and in their processes of creation, (…) playful and hazardous, (…) the accident and the poetry of free forms »
Following that path, Alice Gavin’s fonts are an irreverence to graphic rules when the bench invites us to consider that images can be crafted beyond pages or screens displays.

Bench for six or seven people, powder coated aluminium, three modules, various dimensions, 2023. (prototype)
Designed by Alice Gavin in collaboration with Alexandra Gerber
Crafted by FSM, UK.
Edition of three ensembles

Designing Marvin M'Toumo artist's identity

'Between installations, sculptures, collages, paintings and films, this first monographic exhibition of the artist presents more than forty unpublished works and pursues a hypothesis: Martin Margiela has always been an artist.'
