187 - Alban Lanore (1966)

Alban Lanore (1966) Construction Brushed teak, handmade Limited edition of 6 pieces 2023 H71 L23 P23 cm With its title, *Construction* evokes architecture: a vertical form in teak, part sculpture, part miniature building. The hand-brushed finish highlights the wood’s soft grain and brings out its texture, giving the surface a tactile relief and an immediate patina. Alban Lanore thus carries on a French tradition of wood carving that pays close attention to the material, from Alexandre Noll to contemporary sculptors and cabinetmakers.
