For Rinck, it may be an arrival, but it feels more like a return. In the 1970s, Gérard Rinck, at the company’s helm in that day, opened a gallery on rue des Saints-Pères to display his firm’s contemporary designs, leaving the traditional creations at the original premises in the Faubourg Saint-Antoine. Back then, Rinck’s works rubbed elbows with art brut and creative lacquers in a space with a distinctively Seventies look and feel. Those years also saw the last of the annual releases of contemporary collections, before such creation was revived at Rinck in 2020.
