Aki Kuroda and Pleyel - Spacemeeting

Aki Kuroda requested by Pleyel, creates a timeless design for pianos produced in a limited edition of 8 copies.

The first edition dates from 2006.

"Aki Kuroda is a multi-faceted artist giving life to his creations in very studied scenographies. This piano is an echo of his work "Cosmogarden", where he transforms the piano into a space of meeting and passage where music and light, against the backdrop of a cosmic night, a night that multiplies like a flower, a cosmos within which the outlines of man stand out.

The stenciled lacquer brings out the shapes and colors and thus reinforces the poetic and graphic nature materialized by the flower and the geometric shape of the piano.

"Spacemeeting" was born from spontaneity, the movement of the form making the line spring. The brilliance of this piano, underlined by its brilliance, resides in a vision of the universe that is both excessively serene and somewhat violent.

The poetry of the flower dear to Aki Kuroda comes to soothe the cosmic geometry of the lid and the presence of man in the universe." Pleyel

The cosmos, time, silence, night, silhouette are recurring themes in his work. The brilliance of his paintings seems to reside in his excessively serene and somewhat violent vision of the universe. Born in the automatism of the gesture, his figures mark the canvas with a sending or a wake. His works are born of spontaneity, the movement of the line letting the form spring forth.
