Biography
André Cazenave (1928-2003)
André Cazenave is mainly known for his luminous sculptures edited by Atelier A and Pierre Disderot in the 1960s and 1970s. Designed for both indoor and outdoor use: its pebbles (Dorra model), cubes, pyramids, corals, Greek inspired busts and so on. These lamps are all handmade of polyester or fiberglass coated with marble powder. And they have an aluminium base were the electric parts are attached.
Story
Atelier A.
It was on the initiative of François Arnal, painter and sculptor, that Atelier A was created in 1968, a kind of furniture production company for artists: César, Jean-Michel Sanejouand, Robert Malaval, Annette Messager , François Arnal himself and many others are thus called upon to propose projects for chairs, armchairs, tables and lamps.
The enterprise, which lasted only a few years, is nevertheless remarkable for its ability to decompartmentalize disciplines, and to realize, in these few concrete objects, the old utopia of a union of art and life.

Biography
Claude de Musac (1935-2022) was a highly talented decorator and artist.
With subtlety, precision and daring, Claude de Muzac set out from her beginnings around 1960 to showcase the rarest and strangest objects, from dog bones to paintings by her contemporaries, in surprising, precious and poor materials, Plexiglas, enamel and scales, art objects that had suffered or no longer suffered the velvet and gilding of an overly 19th-century frame. After studying drawing at Paul Colin’s studio and working as a window dresser, she was hired by Daniel Cordier, with whom she trained in the presentation of artworks.
She soon opened her own boutique where she offered frames of constant inventiveness, playing with contrasting materials and matching colors. Her famous clients included Georges Pompidou, Peter O’Toole, André Malraux, Edmond de Rotschild, Man Ray and the list goes on. Some, like Max Ernst, chose the frame and painted for the frame. As for Serge Poliakoff, he came in every day and commissioned frames, and in one of his favorites, which was made of lapis lazuli, he painted a large blue composition. Her customers are often her friends, and her friends become her collaborators, so she surrounds herself with those she loves, inspiring them to create new objects and jewelry that she presents in her Grotte-galerie. The unclassifiable intuition that makes Claude de Muzac’s work so beautiful is certainly this quality of entourage. Shadows become frames, pedestals become faces, and the other is each time for her a new form of inspiration, of rapprochement or opposition, of respect and passion.
