Valentin Loellmann

Born in 1983 in Germany, Valentin Loellmann grew up in a family that encouraged creative expression. It was only natural that his artistic potential emerged from this conducive environment. After graduating in 2010 from Maastricht Academy of Fine Arts, he founded his studio.

Between design, sculpture and fine cabinetmakign, Valentin selected wood for his favorite material. He works wood by hand, relentlessly, and confronts its natural warmth to copper, brass or even steel for an unexpected and innovative dialog. Valentin frequently exhibits, through Galerie Gosserez, at Art Basel, Collective New York, PAD Paris. In PAD London, he received the award of the "Most Beautiful Piece of Contemporary Design" in 2013 for his Spring/Summer console and in 2017 for his Copper corner bench.

In 2020, his "Brass" desk is now part of the French government's Mobilier National collections and is presented at the French Republic Elysée palace since 2021.
