'Objects for the Electronic Age' including the 'Largesse' fruit bowl by Nathalie du Pasquier ,1984
NATHALIE DU PASQUIER is a painter that spent a few years experimenting in the field of objects and furniture design. She was born in Bordeaux, France in 1957 and has lived in Milan since 1979 where she met the designer George Sowden.
Two years after moving to Milan, she met Ettore Sottsass who invited her and Sowden to become founding members of the Memphis Group. Her iconic designs for Memphis have become a widely recognized aspect of the Memphis brand and defined the esthetic of the 1980s in general.
In 1987, she dedicated herself to painting after designing furniture and objects. Over the past 10 years her fine art career has had strong recognition and her iconic Memphis work has been re-edited by brands like American Apparel and the Conran Shop, entering the lives of new generations and showing how relevant her early work is today.
