Lalanne: A World of Poetry

Assouline creates the highest quality, most coveted book-objects whose distinctive graphic identity and editorial savoir-faire have captured imaginations, addressing new themes in a contemporary manner. With more than 1,500 titles on fashion, art, photography, travel, and design, the brand was created to be the first luxury book brand on culture, supplying everything for the modern library. In celebration of François-Xavier and Claude’s ever-enchanting and whimsical sculptures, this tome, part of Assouline’s Ultimate collection, Lalanne: A World of Poetry explores some of their most iconic pieces from their rich body of work. Author Jean-Gabriel Mitterrand, the couple’s longtime gallerist and friend, pens a magnificent text that traces the Lalannes’s meteoric rise, from their early days in Paris’s Impasse Ronsin and their first show that caught the attention of gallerist Alexandre Iolas, to their lasting legacy as one of design’s most inventive and poetic masters.
