Wall - Hardcover

Wall exposes the art and design aficionado to a new format of unique expression and design in a way that is 'translatable' to the contemporary home. Using walls as a forum for art whether it is through visionary painting, photography, sculpture or lighting, this collection features a brilliant compilation of cutting-edge design, art, and inspiration. Aware that art is a reflection of popular culture, Ralph Pucci is known as an international innovator and pioneer in the synergy between the worlds of art, design, fashion, and commerce, through the establishment of his international design galleries throughout the world. Here, in Wall, Ralph Pucci surveys the incredible and outside-the-box concept that is a lynchpin of these incredibly eclectic environments that constantly re-define modern art and design. Over the last seventeen years Ralph Pucci has collaborated with established world-class artists and illustrators such as Kenny Scharf, Maira Kalman, Ruben Toledo, Malcolm Hill, and Deborah Turbeville, as well as supporting a select group of furniture designers including Patrick Naggar, and Jerome Abel Seguin to create the signature wall murals that become the core of Pucci style and spirit. Wall demonstrates the uniquely Pucci concept that art can perform in a novel way in every environment. It is no surprise that Elle Decor magazine recently compared Pucci to Lorenzo de' Medici and Sergei Diaghilev for building a layered and complex mixed-media art environment unlike any other.
