During Art Paris, we had the opportunity to sit down with Sandy Saad and Jean-Paul Bath. As co-directors of the Le French Design association, they are also the curators behind the exhibition at the Grand Palais and its brand-new section, French Design Art Edition. They shared their vision for this exciting new field.

"It’s impossible to think of the decorative arts without mentioning Rinck, one of the great ensembliers-décorateurs who helped shape the Art Deco movement in the 1930s by blending artistic craftsmanship, innovation, and design. This esteemed house has spanned two centuries thanks to its commitment to innovation, continually reinventing itself through creativity."
