For his first solo exhibition at Galerie kreo, Paris, Jean-Baptiste Fastrez (*1984) presents Space Craft, an ensemble of mirrors, tables and side tables, stools, a console table, and a sideboard. Characteristic of his research into the narrative power of objects and materials, this new collection features highly designed pieces with a techno-futurist aesthetic, made using both traditional and innovative know-how, such as straw marquetry and Nextel paint. Not a clash of temporalities, but rather a strong desire to reconcile them by creating furniture that directly reflects the current era.

About
Galerie kreo
Galerie kreo is recognized as one of the most influential furniture galleries on the international scene. The gallery defines itself as a "research laboratory" dedicated to the production of contemporary pieces in limited editions, created exclusively for the gallery, by the greatest contemporary designers, from Virgil Abloh, to Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec, Pierre Charpin, Naoto Fukasawa, Jaime Hayon, Konstantin Grcic, Hella Jongerius, Alessandro Mendini, Jasper Morrison, Marc Newson, or Studio Wieki Somers. The works of these designers reside in the most important private and public collections around the world, from the MoMA to the Centre Pompidou, from the V&A in London to the SFMoMA in San Francisco etc. In parallel with the contemporary production, the gallery also presents a selection of exceptional French and Italian 20th century lightings — a field of expertise in itself but also one of Didier Krzentowski's personal passions.
