From May
29th to October 25th 2009
This
new exhibition gives museum visitors the possibility to meet a
brilliant artist. Zofia
Rostad was born in Poland and trained first in Lodz and than
at the School of Decorative Arts in Paris by Paule Marrot. She
has marked the field of upholstery, carpets and household
linen through its colourful creations and contemporary
graphics.
For
this artist, applied art is an art major. Her style is unique
and this is shown as well as in her ink drawings as in her
printed textiles.As Zofia loves life, she also loves colour
which occupies an important place in her artistic world.
"Creation must bring joy” is the motto of
this stylist. By using bold colours and rhythms she creates
for a broad public.
Her creativity can be divided into
three major themes dear to her: geometry, flowers and
children's design.
Geometry
Her
successful creations, abstract compositions, which are not
influenced by the traditional rules, are testimony to the
unique originality of her work. She also realized a project
concerning the effects of different materials and colours.
 
Flowers
Her
meeting with Paule Marrot awoke her taste for flowers, which
since is one of her favourite themes. Her anemones, poppies
and dahlias are sometimes in bright and strong colours and
sometimes in smart and cool tones. Colour remains the
preferred way to express her enthusiasm and to formulate her
spontaneity.
Children's designs
A
cheerful menagerie animates her compositions: pigs, cows,
hippos, dogs and above all cats, are her favourite animals. Dreamy,
sometimes dumpy but always colourful characters will charm and
amuse everyone
