Winter 2024 Art CommissionsFebruary 14, 2025 8:00 AMThere is a private, far away world that artists return to time and time again. Its parameters, molded in childhood and chiseled away in practice. Like the natural landscape, it is always shifting, eroding, and regenerating anew. We can see it, too, eyes closed: a snow capped mountain, an ancient organism, our body, cosmic.

Soft light emanates from a miniature table lamp that resembles a tall, polished candle. Both a light source and an art piece, its widened base anchors an angular, see-through lampshade at the top. This portable fixture marks the 10th anniversary of Flos’ first collaboration with Philippe Starck. Named Bon Jour Unplugged, the design reflects the French industrial architect’s signature aesthetic that fuses form and function and combines diverse materials like plastic, aluminum, and chrome.

Actress Zoë Kravitz reclines across a tangerine-colored canvas, wearing a ruffled, sheer turquoise blouse, a burgundy pencil skirt, and two oversized gold bangles. Her legs are kicked up, with one foot clad in a high heel and the other bare, as she raises a red brocade jacket the way a matador signals a bull. Painted by Francesco Clemente, Saint Laurent’s Spring/Summer 2025 campaign stars the actor alongside Isabella Ferrari and models Penelope Ternes and Ajus Samuel.

In the heart of Shanghai, the arched front doors of Rong Zhai lead into a foyer with ornate cherry wood-framed mirrors inspired by Italian bakeries, reflecting a display case of re-imagined tiramisu, cassata cake, and delizia al limone. The pastry shop is just one part of a home-turned-new-culinary experience created by Prada and Wong Kar-wai. Titled Mi Shang Prada Rong Zhai, it reflects the visuals of both the Italian fashion house and the celebrated Chinese director.

Fabien Baron never planned on moving back to Paris full-time. He originally left in 1982, but it wasn’t until the outcome of the 2024 U.S. election that he gave himself some extra space for gratitude. “I do miss the city, but recently I said to myself for the first time, I’m really glad to be here,” he ventures, taking a beat to measure his words.
