About the Item

Jean Campa Signed Abstract Aluminum Sculpture Coffee Table, France, 1992. This rare and exceptional coffee or cocktail table transcends furniture design, uniting art and function in a singular statement piece. At its base lies an original abstract aluminum sculpture by French artist Jean Campa (1933–2024), signed and dated 1992. The expressive composition, with its folded planes and organic forms, captures Campa’s signature ability to translate rhythm and improvisation into sculptural presence. The artwork is framed within a newly constructed steel structure with brass-capped feet, topped by a striking asymmetrical and geometrical plexiglass surface. The transparent top both grounds the design and reveals the sculptural depth below, allowing light to play across the aluminum folds and emphasizing the dynamic tension between solidity and openness. More than a table, this is a signed, one-of-a-kind artwork—a centerpiece that embodies the late 20th-century avant-garde dialogue between fine art, design, and architecture. Jean Campa (1933–2024) was a French sculptor known for his distinctive cast aluminum works. An industrial designer by training, he pivoted to dental surgery but gradually dedicated himself to his artistic practice. His first works in clay were figurative, but his passion for jazz inspired him to translate musical improvisation to physical abstract forms. He frequented artists such as Gérard Schneider, Etienne Martin, Jean Villeri, René Char, André Verdet and Consuelo de Saint-Exupéry who supported him in developing his practice. His cast aluminum sculptures feature in a number of public collections.
