Paris, August 2021
l’Hotel de Martel / Galerie 54
Back in August 2021 I made a visit to Galerie 54, housed in l’Hotel de Martel, the former atelier of sculptors Jan and Joël Martel. The building and street were designed by architect Robert Mallet-Stevens and finished in 1927. The visit formed an absolute highlight of our trip thanks to the staff member that took the time to show us around the street, building & extensive collection of Jean Prouve , Charlotte Perriand, Pierre Jeanneret, Jean Arp, José Zanine Caldas and many others.
If you’re into art (deco), modernist architecture or furniture and you’re in Paris, I’d highly recommend to visit to the Rue Mallet-Stevens and knock the blue door.
