About
An out-of-the-ordinary exhibition demonstrating how fantasy can work endlessly on a single subject, and how beauty can take the most varied forms through different techniques and materials: 1000 VASES presents unique pieces made by hundreds of independent designers from over 60 countries, in an extraordinary journey around the world united by the design of a small yet fundamental object.
The collection of a large number of vases allows the quantity and diversity of works to speak for themselves, through a simple and harmonious scenography that enhances their originality. Tribal, minimal, pop, sculptural, elementary, complicated, sophisticated, purist, fun, sinuous, geometric and irregular forms coexisting side-by-side, thus highlighting the originality of each and every object, will amaze visitors.
Since 2018, 1000 VASES has held several exhibitions each year in Paris with a scenography signed by Hervé Sauvage, as well as collaborating with French fashion label Jacquemus for its 10-year anniversary event. In 2019, the exhibition traveled to Dubai for Art Week. In 2021, Volume I of the 1000 VASES book, featuring one thousand vases from its family of exhibiting artists, was published by Skira Editore with an Art Direction by Pier Paolo Pitacco.
1000 VASES has held exhibitions in Milan during Salone del Mobile in 2021 and 2022 at Superstudio Più and in 2023 at Fondazione Sozzani, Corso Como 10.
NEXT EDITION: 4-7 September 2025, PARIS during Paris Design Week and Maison & Objet.
