THE PARIS-BASED DESIGNER ARRIVES AT FRIEDMAN BENDA LOS ANGELES
Friedman Benda announces the opening of Paris-based Israeli designer Raphael Navot’s first solo exhibition at its Los Angeles gallery. Born in 1977 in Jerusalem, the artist has established a distinguished career in design and interior architecture. He runs his own studio in Paris, where he continues to explore and innovate within the realms of design. By 2023, he had been awarded Maison&Objet Designer of the Year.
The exhibition, titled Reverberations, will run from July 11th to September 25th, 2024, and will showcase Navot’s unique visual language and artistic sensibility within the gallery’s intimate, residential setting overlooking West Hollywood. Reverberations is the largest presentation of Navot’s work to date, emphasizing his ability to synthesize various elements such as proportion, volume, material, palette, construction, and motif. Each table and chair on display within the exhibition is crafted with nuance and precision, which reflects Navot’s dedication to creating works that resonate with design-minded viewers.
