PALATY ON PAD Paris 2025
Palaty Gallery is to present a unique collection of objects created specifically for the PAD Paris exhibition (April 2-6, 2025).
Palaty is a Russian art and design gallery founded in St. Petersburg in 2020, specializing in working with local artists. The gallery team conducts research and regularly travels on expeditions across Russia in search of new unique techniques and authors. The founder and owner of the gallery is Julia Loboyko.
PAD Paris is an annual art and collectible design fair established in 1998 and recognized as the first design fair in history. The event has an impeccable reputation and brings together the best international galleries. https://www.padesignart.com/en/
The collection promises to be a curated selection of contemporary design objects, reflecting Palaty's commitment to showcasing the rich artistic heritage and innovative spirit of Russia. Expect to see pieces that blend traditional craftsmanship with modern aesthetics, highlighting the unique techniques and materials sourced from across the country.
Palaty's participation in PAD Paris marks a significant step for the gallery, providing a platform to introduce Russian design to a global audience. The carefully chosen pieces will undoubtedly spark conversation and offer a fresh perspective on the evolving landscape of contemporary design.
Visitors can anticipate an immersive experience, discovering the stories behind each object and the artists who created them. The collection aims to capture the essence of Russian culture and its enduring influence on contemporary design practices.
The following artists and works will be presented in Paris:
The unifying theme across all the works is the regional culture of Russia, specifically the culture and heritage of Kuban – one of the south regions of Russia. The smooth form of the rug, for instance, evokes the wings of a seagull, referencing the Black Sea. The ornament hidden inside the drawers, along with the textile and bee embroidery, illustrates the stages of harvesting crops in the boundless fields of Kuban. The subject of the large-scale panel, created using a chasing technique, speaks of finding peace and tranquility in the embrace of southern nature.
The collection is not merely a display of art and design; it is an immersive experience that invites viewers to connect with the soul of a region. It is a celebration of Kuban's unique cultural identity, a testament to the power of craft to preserve and transmit heritage across generations.
The PAD collection is a continuation of the PALATY. KUBAN' project, a large-scale initiative that previously included the gallery team's expedition through the Krasnodar region (link to the film https://youtu.be/oQGt91yT1yA?si=CfaZs6CQjbVnLt10), an exhibition at the Russian state Museum of Decorative Arts in Moscow, and an ART021 exhibition in Shanghai (link to the film https://youtu.be/JFfYiFQ95K0?si=GXdqQSx5FrSDk9T8).
