Art of Christopher Bettig
Posted by Sarah on Monday Jan 26, 2009 Under Art for the Home
Urban Outfitters has recently released some pillows and dinnerware designed by French born artist Christopher Bettig. Any time you put green and aqua together, I’m sold. So you can imagine my immediate excitement about the bird pillow (shown below).
Bettig created the design studio, The Mountain Label. The website is worth a visit for access to the online shop, to learn more about Chris’ work and to visit his blog. Chris has a diverse group of clientele including but not limited to, Nike, Arden B., Converse, Analogue Books and Four x Four Gallery.
Some of the pieces created for Urban Outfitters
Some of the prints available in his online shop
Some of Chris’ paintings
Collage work (the birds are my personal favorite)
A zine spread that Chris did for Analogue Books in 2008. I admit that I am not as well informed about art as I should be but this image has a real iconic quality and it reminds a bit of Alexander Girard.
