For more than two hundred years, the talent and creativity of prestigious artists have enriched the Arthus-Bertrand collections while mirroring the main aesthetic trends.
We have only to look at the medals of Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi (the sculptor of the Statue of Liberty), the 1940s bronze jewellery of Paule Ingrand, the
brooches of Fernand Léger, Arman, Niki de Saint-Phalle or Gérard Garouste, the medals of Jean-Charles de Castelbajac, and the rings and necklaces of Peggy
Huyn Kinh...
Its one-off items are often also the work of renowned artists.
Andrée Putman has put her name to a travelling alarm clock, Hilton McConnico has signed a collection of desk items... The company's history is thus peppered
with items that carry names such as César, Pierre-Yves Trémois, François-Xavier and Claude Lalanne, Marcial Berro, Sylvain Dubuisson or Nathalie Decoster...
Although each gives us the benefit of his or her individualistic approach, they all help to fuel the creative vigour that propels Maison Arthus-Bertrand ever onward and
upward.
