Colored Abstractions collection design Hervé Langlais, 2016. Hervé Langlais’ 2016 collection for Galerie Negropontes. After having explored rare materials, then the sculptural aspects of design in the vein of Brancusi and finally graphics, Hervé Langlais devotes to color his fourth collection Colored Abstractions for Galerie Negropontes. Hervé Langlais has chosen to highlight color by using pure geometric forms. Inspired by the artists of the geometric abstraction movement of the 1950s-1960s, he uses the line as a structural base for his creations. From Josef Albers - professor at Bauhaus and instigator of Op Art - Langlais retains the observation of the interaction between colors and the importance of perception. The eye is the driving force behind the work which flirts with the decorative, the playful and aspects of fashion. From Genevieve Claisse, Langlais retains the extreme simplicity of “transfigured” shapes through the intensity of the interaction of colors. His works allow for the transition from flat, pictorial references to his 3D vision. Thus the side tables and Nénuphar table use the circle. The square is represented in the Homage to the cube side tables - a direct reference to Josef Albers’ 1956 work Homage to the Squares. Again, it is present in the Triptych mirror composed of squares reflecting each other, a mise en abyme of this simple shape. In the same way, Hervé Langlais explores the triangle in the Bosphore console or Prism side tables...
