The past couple of months were so exciting with the Kips Bay Show House and being part of the
Top Twenty Designers with Tradtional Home, that one weekend, I treated myself to a weekend in Pairs! Why not? Right! After all,
Paris is a hop over the water from New York!
So! I stayed in a great boutique hotel that Phillipe Starck designed called The Royal Monceau! They have the coolest glam restaurant called Le Cuisine.
That’s where looking up at the ceiling sometimes pays off! Placed on the ceiling were the most gorgeous pieces of art, which by the way, this hotel actually boosts an insane collection!
But the artist on the ceiling is Stephane Calais! WOW! Is a total understatement.
He is quite well known in Europe and especially France and his work is actually quite well respected and collected!
There is a fabulous gallery in New York that I found called ZIEHER SMITH that represents Stephane.
Mais Oui! I have been in touch with them as I must own one of his works immediately!
Here is their link http://www.ziehersmith.com/
Enjoy!
