LATITUDE 43, AN ARCHITECTURAL AND ARTISTIC SHOWCASE
The Art Deco masterpiece, enhanced past its recent renovation, has imposed itself as the evidence example of the works of three talented sculptors.
Seduced by the light and the Dolce Vita of the Riviera, Laurent Jardin and Charles Serruya made a stopover on the peninsula this summer at the family home of their friend Nicolas Lefebvre. In this villa, where friends, collectors and patrons meet, they set up up their workshop in the heart of the garden lined with umbrella pines. A magical place, overlooking the sea, to create infrequent works of art, including those that we are presenting to y'all exclusively for the first fourth dimension in the eye of Latitude 43, the iconic linerstyle building signed Georges Henri Pingusson (1932).
NICOLAS LEFEBVRE, a solar creative person anchored in the eye of the Sacred and Female parent Earth
In the royal hall of Latitude 43, the sun shines on the sculptures Mâât – Goddess of Justice – and The Greek Fisher, 1 of the sculptor's final masterpieces. This mobile homage to Calder, a divine assemblage of precious wood, ancient glass floats and fishing nets, was unveiled at Lucas Ratton'south Tropezian gallery representing the creative person. Information technology is now on the Indie Embankment House in Pampelonne. Four original works in wood, stone and shells, including a giant totem pole in homage to the Earth and the Bounding main, have naturally constitute their place in the sand.

LAURENT JARDIN, the pure diamond of Art Brut
"My Art is born from a fusion of materials and elements that I discovered through fashion," explains the creative person who made a name for himself – Dragovan – before devoting himself to sculpture and design. Wood, leather, metal, marble, Laurent Jardin, fascinated by history and the primitive arts, he searches for absolute purity. His works, of raw and precious assemblages, transcend the artisanal tradition, in a pure quest for freedom and spirituality, his style, all in purity and perfect geometry, seeks the chimerical residual at the heart of the globe's instability. Like Orca, Mât, Orus and Triomphe, his magnetic works created this spring.
How has Saint-Tropez inspired you in your latest creations?
In this house, a place of sharing and artistic and human being encounters, I have made an introspection within myself. In the heart of nature, this incredible light and the sun gave me the force to transcend myself and to piece of work. In the centre of nature, facing the horizon, this incredible light and this powerful sun gave me the force to draw from deep within me the desire to transcend myself and work on diverse projects around art, pattern and crafts.

CHARLES SERRUYA, the Poet of the Purple Tree
Photographer, specialist of light and shadow, manager, sculptor, underground dandy of New York and Parisian nights, Charles Serruya has had a thousand lives! His wire sculptures reveal a frail graphic art, nourished by, the dream and the evasion, like the Minotaur, one of his emblematic sculptures.
Charles, your Minotaur seems to have always been present in the hall of Latitude 43...
I unveiled this monumental sculpture of two.8 meters about x years ago in the heart of the Pavillon de Gallon, a remarkable botanical garden, then in various places, including Pierre-Alain Chalier'south Parisian gallery and Vincent Darré'due south showroom in rue Royale. The Minotaur represents power and wisdom...
What near the Sphynge, the work currently exhibited at the gallery 50'Ormeau des Arts?
Inspired by Greek mythology, this fabulous creature with a bewitching grin has the features of a woman who has meant a lot in my life.
What are your plans?

LATITUDE 43
Built in 1932, this physical ship with a futuristic silhouette proudly stands out in the Tropezian landscape. The work of architect Georges-Henri Pingusson, is one of the most advanced palaces on the Côte d'Azur, and a holiday resort for motion-picture show stars, wealthy industrialists and English dignity seeking a relaxing style of life. With the Second World War, Latitude 43 fell into oblivion.
Yet it has withstood the test of time, now passionately renovated in almost its original state by an association of co-owners who are proud to bring this building steeped in history dorsum to life.
Triomphe by Laurent Jardin, Sculpture inspired past the body of water.
