Description

The Brilliant Bugattis will be the first exhibition on this virtuoso family in the UK since the pioneering show at the Royal College of Art, London in 1979. A treasure trove of 30 artworks, designs and cars, this non-selling exhibition will feature pieces by the family patriarch, Carlo (1856-1940) - a true Renaissance man who could design anything to perfection, from furniture to silverware; his sons - the genius animal sculptor Rembrandt (1884-1916) and the epoch-defining car engineer Ettore (1881-1946); and his grandson, Jean (1909-1939) whose car design significantly contributed to the fame of the Bugatti name today. This show is being curated by Edward Horswell, a world-renowned authority on artworks relating to the Bugatti family. It will feature rarely seen pieces loaned by some of today’s most important Bugatti collectors. Marrying the functional and the aesthetic with exceptional execution, these pieces will offer a unique insight into this extraordinary family and its tradition of artistry and design.
