Le Rebelle: Céramique Subversive
Coming soonArchive note
A French product advertisement for a ceramic figurine—a cool cat in sunglasses and leather jacket, posed against a street lamp—positioned as a deliberately kitsch object with underground credentials. The tagline 'Inconnu. Cool. Éternel.' ('Unknown. Cool. Eternal.') suggests this piece circulated in 1950s bohemian circles as an ironic talisman of feline rebellion. A artifact for collectors of mid-century design satire and the aesthetics of deliberate bad taste reclaimed as high camp.
Catalogued, not yet released. This artifact will become available to acquire soon.
