“Work-of-art” piano by the artist Aki Kuroda produced by Pleyel in partnership with Galerie Maeght (France).Aki Kuroda is an artist with a multidisciplinary quality, who gives life to his works in highly elaborate scene designs. This piano is an echo to the artist’s art work “Cosmogarden”, a channel where music and light take place side by side, and a work that rests on the backdrop of the cosmic night, a night that spreads out like a flower, the cosmos where mankind’s silhouette can be perceived.
The brightness of the lacquer, stenciling, contrasting forms and colours enhance the graphic and poetic nature materialized by the flower and the body shape. Spacemeeting is the result of spontaneity and movement of form sprouting from the lashes of the artist. The vividness of this piano, enhanced by its shine, proceeds from his vision – extremely serene but somewhat violent – of the universe.
The poetry of the flower Aki Kuroda is so fond of soothes the cosmic geometry of the lid and the presence of man in the universe.
