I wrote a few weeks ago about a visit to the marvelous Italian Design Showroom Rimadesio in Manhattan, and this past week I had the beautiful blessing of being a part of an event there with the marvelous Artist Marco Luccio who has been visiting from Australia and the marvelous staff as we collaborated within this beautiful space to show Marco's art within and around the lovely design pieces there.
For many years I have worked with Artists of all kinds, producing events and helping Artists to find spaces and audiences to showcase their work and their performances, films and objets d'art. Since I opened YES Gallery in Hoboken in August of 2022, much of the work that I do with Artists has been in and around that space, but I still always have my eyes and heart open to finding new places and people to collaborate with to bring art and design to ever new audiences and geographies.
When I first saw the space at Rimadesio it was for a beautiful art event that I'd been invited to, and I'm so grateful to the gorgeous Curator Adrielle Nicole who extended the gift of her welcome so that I could be a part of that beautiful evening and meet the wonderful staff there. After that event I was in a meeting to discuss future events with the marvelous CEO and others marvelous people who are in charge of the space and the events that are planned there, and on the day we met, I had just heard from Marco Luccio that he was in New York.
In thinking about the space and his art, it just seemed like it would be a beautiful combination, and I share some images and links from his website and Instagram in the meeting that day. Later, he and I met in the space to take a few minutes with some of his pieces to see what they would look like there and the result was so lovely! With the blessing of the wonderful CEO and other wonderful staff, we planned a date and Marco made a beautiful invitation, and this past week we celebrated this gorgeous collaboration of art and design during an afternoon and evening.
Everyone involved in this beautiful event was truly wonderful to work with. It is so rare to have things go so well every step of the way unless you are working with the best of the best which I was blessed to do. I'm so grateful to everyone who went out of their way in so many ways to create the beautiful collaboration of art and design that we experienced in that space during those lovely hours we shared together, and to the wonderful guests who brought their beautiful light to shine in this glowing place.
