La Maison Galerie Laurence Pustetto

A PLACE: THE HOUSE GALLERY LAURENCE PUSTETTO

In the heart of Libourne, in the Bastide district, Laurence Pustetto has opened the doors of a Maison Galerie, a place dedicated to art, crafts and design. A gallery installed on two levels to promote, artists, accompany art lovers, collectors and future collectors. A place for exchanges, discoveries and aesthetic emotions.

You will be able to discover and acquire :

• Throughout the year, the works of artists and visual artists supported and presented on a regular basis in the Maison Galerie. This allows you to follow the work of an artist and its evolution over several years.
• Several times a year, works and objects presented during temporary exhibitions, which allow to put a light on a particular artist, a theme, trades, a collective, etc... This choice of exhibition is made according to the gallery owner's favourites.
• Occasionally, in response to encounters and desires, small musical, literary or gustatory events, to which you are invited or that you wish to organise at the Maison Galerie.

This place is a showcase for the local and international artists who rub shoulders there. All of them have in common an approach that is in keeping with the times, that builds a true artistic identity, that gives their work a lasting value.

The concept of the house-gallery has chosen a surprising and singular staging where the works are mixed with everyday objects and furniture for sale or those related to the house. A place that favours a dialogue between objects and works rather than a linear discovery. It is an approach which combines interior architecture, scenography, theatricality, and which offers you to let yourself be carried away by the liking of discoveries, to let yourself be seduced by such and such a work, such and such an object.

La Maison lends itself to the game of staging to bring together different artistic worlds.

A PERSONALITY: LAURENCE PUSTETTO

A long-time collector and scenographer, with a real taste for staging works, objects and furniture in a chosen environment, she has been welcoming you since the beginning of 2020. This singular project was born from crossed passions :

• Passion for the artists that she loves, that she defends, and that she has been collecting for a long time.
• Passion for the staging of works in a daily life of antique and restored objects and furniture.
• Passion for craftsmanship and hand work, the frontier between technical know-how and artistic expression.
• Passion for architecture, everyday spaces and their uses, the way of living in them, of making them live, of receiving people.

It is also a way of informing, sharing and transmitting values and stories through art.
