Daniel Buren Espresso Cups from Illy
- Product ID:
- B966
Enjoy the pleasure of an extraordinary coffee experience with this exquisite collection created in connections with Daniel Buren’s ambitious installation at Monumenta 2012 at the Grand Palais in Paris. Buren uses stripes to re-define space and forces the audience’s eyes to create a new relationship with the most disparate of places, monuments, or objects. Buren’s design is not an imposition, but an invitation to open one’s eyes and with them, one’s heart as well.
This collection features four espresso cups with saucers.

Daniel Buren Espresso Cups
Set of 4 espresso cups and saucers
Daniel Buren was born in the suburbs of Paris and graduated from the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Métiers d’Art art school in Paris in 1960. In 1965 he adopted the 8.7 cm stripes that became his signature, and which are inspired by a type of drapery fabric that is very common in France and throughout the world. In 1966 he was one of the founders of the minimalist conceptual group Buren, Mosset, Parmentier, Toroni. As early as his first collective exhibition, “Prospect 68” in Düsseldorf, and his personal exhibition at Milan’s Galleria Apollinaire, both in 1968, he used architecture and painting together, working ‘in situ’. In 1986 he represented France at the Venice Biennale and won the Golden Lion Award for “Best Pavilion”.
