Sara Ricciardi’s vision of colors, metaphors and organic shapes unfold in the series of limited edition vase-sculptures created with Rometti and developing the concept of the seed. The vase-sculptures will be presented from 23rd September until 20th November at Palazzo Brancaccio, the Contemporary Cluster’s new space, in a single show curated by Giacomo Guidi, Artistic Director and Co-founder of the gallery with arch. Giorgia Cerulli.

From 4th September to 31st October, the Quadreria space becomes the theatre for Fittile, a journey into ceramics curated by the artist, architect and designer Ugo La Pietra. The iconic figure of Italian applied arts wanted the monumental presence of Rometti among the works on display: two Totems, in a special terracotta finish, act as supporting columns at the entrance to the show. Another exclusive space was given to the last great work of Jean-Christophe Clair, Artistic Director of Rometti: Arythmie has an enveloping and incessant Baroque air. The vase tells of an energy that dances and evolves, an entrelac of music and ceramics that blends the multifaceted artistic paths of its author.

The French capital is hosting a unique event; an auction of unique and timeless pieces by style icon Chantal Thomass. Famous auction house Millon presents more than 600 objects signed by the multifaceted and irreverent artist ranging from prêt-à-porter to haute-couture, lingerie and accessories, to design. This is a unique opportunity for collectors from all over the world, who will be able to view and bid for unique pieces from the past, (which have been stored at a constant temperature of 15 ° in the designer’s personal archive), as well as to buy new objects from exclusive collaborations. Among the most characteristic and charismatic pieces are a collection of vases created with Rometti, a company that has been producing artistic pieces that embody the uniqueness of craftsmanship and soul of Italian manufacturing since 1927 .

The iconic Commutatore, on display at the exhibition, reveals an alternative way of experiencing urban space, looking at the world from an atypical perspective. Ugo La Pietra loves to explore reality by unhinging its values ​​and approved spaces. Architect, designer, artist, director, editor and teacher he doesn’t like the division between disciplines but appreciates craftsmanship and local traditions and particularly identifies ceramic as a ductile and stimulating material, that blends art and technique. Above all, he links creation to a specific place, where you “ look for the form that comes from our experiences instead of from imposed patterns”.

2020 brings a new collection by Chantal Thomass for Rometti, presented during the Parisian Design Week, in the splendid home of the French stylist and designer. One of the most acclaimed events by the Parisian press, who loved the renewed collaboration and the fusion of the designer’s femininity and Rometti’s know-how.
