Sculptures by Jon Buck

One of the most exciting elements of the sale is the collection of Jon Buck sculptures. Buck, known for his exploration of human and natural forms, brings a playful yet deeply considered approach to shape, texture and colour. His works range from compact, characterful pieces to bold, large‑scale statements - ideal whether you want a subtle artistic accent or a centrepiece with presence. Many of his sculptures feature rich, saturated hues that perfectly embody the now‑famous “unexpected red theory”, the idea that a sudden pop of red (or any vivid colour) can instantly transform a room, adding warmth, dynamism and a sense of curated intention. Buck’s pieces do exactly that. Their tactile surfaces, organic silhouettes and confident palettes inject energy into any interior, making them perfect for collectors who want art that feels alive.

Photographic Works by Raphael Mazzucco

Alongside sculpture, the sale features captivating photographic works by Raphael Mazzucco, the Canadian‑born, internationally acclaimed photographer and mixed‑media artist. Mazzucco’s career spans fashion, fine art and editorial work, with his images appearing in Vogue, L’Officiel, Sports Illustrated and numerous global exhibitions. His signature style blends photography with hand‑applied paint, resin and collage, creating layered, dreamlike compositions that feel both intimate and cinematic. Including a Mazzucco piece in your home adds not just visual beauty but atmosphere, as his works have a way of shifting the emotional temperature of a room, offering depth, sensuality and a sense of narrative. They are ideal for collectors who want artwork that feels contemporary yet timeless, and expressive yet refined.

Roche Bobois Furniture

Design lovers will also be thrilled by the strong presence of Roche Bobois furniture in the sale. As one of the world’s leading names in contemporary interiors, Roche Bobois is celebrated for its sculptural forms, luxurious materials and collaborations with major designers such as Christian Lacroix, Jean‑Paul Gaultier and Fabrice Berrux. Many of the pieces in this auction, ranging from leather swivel chairs to Mah Jong coffee tables and statement sofas, showcase the brand’s commitment to craftsmanship and innovation. Their work was recently highlighted at Milan Design Week, where Roche Bobois once again demonstrated its ability to merge art, architecture and furniture design into cohesive, forward‑thinking collections. Acquiring a Roche Bobois piece is not just buying furniture; it’s bringing a slice of global design culture into your home.

Together, these highlights make the May Art & Interiors sale a vibrant celebration of creativity. Whether you’re drawn to the colour and charisma of Jon Buck, the atmospheric storytelling of Raphael Mazzucco, or the sculptural sophistication of Roche Bobois, this auction offers the perfect opportunity to add personality, energy and artistry to your space.
