DELIGHTFUL SWEETS FROM THE PURPLE BOUDOIR
Suzanne Syz to exhibit at Hauser & Wirth
Renowned for her highly original and unconventional designs, Syz draws on many sources for inspiration. Born in Zurich and educated in Paris, she moved to New York City in the 1980’s and it is this period of her life which has had the biggest influence on her work. Here she mixed with great contemporary artists such as Andy Warhol, Jean Michel Basquiat, Julian Schnabel, Francesco Clemente and Jeff Koons. She has been strongly influenced by their specific treatment of colour and this is reflected in the vibrancy of her work. Herself a big Contemporary Art collector, Syz has amassed an impressive private collection over 30 years. Her collection of work from artists Will Cotton, Sylvie Fleury, Blum Helmann and Paul McCarthy and Jason Rhodes have strongly influenced her designs in Delightful Sweets Fom The Purple Boudoir.
Delightful Sweets From The Purple Boudoir comprises around sixty entirely unique and individually designed pieces ranging in price from £5,000 - £300,000.
