Ronan Bouroullec: Triptyque

In 2023, as part of the rich programme celebrating its centenary, the villa Noailles has invited Ronan Bouroullec to present three exhibitions: Dessins quotidiens (Daily Drawings) at the Hotel des Arts in Toulon, Les mains a l’argile (Hands to Clay) at the Galerie du Canon and Productions recentes (Recent Productions) at the villa Noailles itself. The invitation took the form of a triptych resonating with the world of Ronan Bouroullec, where the effects of unfolding, perspective and the organisation of visual planes occupy a central place. The graphic design of this book is an extension of this. For the first time, Ronan Bouroullec’s three intertwined daily practices are brought together in a single work: drawing, clay—through his ceramic sculptures, vases, facing tiles and bas-reliefs—and also his latest proposals for object design and in situ projects, including the renovation of the Saint-Michel chapel in Brasparts.
