Opening night of Ruinart Maison 1729 in Berlin with artist Eva Jospin

The Amtsalon in Berlin has been the perfect venue for an extraordinary event during Gallery Weekend Berlin 2023, featuring French artist Eva Jospin, who this year was given carte blanche by the prestigious French champagne house Ruinart for their annual artist project. Entitled ‘Promenade(s) en Champagne’, the exhibition showcased Jospin’s intricate cardboard sculptures and a collection of drawings, sculptures and embroideries that recreate the cycles of history and vegetation, as in the creation of champagne. The exhibition is a celebration of Jospin’s skill and dedication to creating visually stunning and conceptually engaging artworks that are, in fact, always in process, just like the champagne grape being harvested.

It always starts with a sketch and a colour chart, which she then gives to her assistants who create the work.

 

The Ruinart pop up combines art, fine dining by Sophia Rudolph and champagne to create an unforgettable experience.
The entire Amtsalon has been transformed into an art venue with a gallery space, restaurant, champagne bar and champagne boutique.
French artist Eva Jospin’s stunning installations dominate the gallery space, showcasing her unique approach to sculpture, using cardboard to create intricate and detailed forest landscapes. Her work is both delicate and powerful, leaving guests in awe of the creativity and skill on display.

For the opening night of the exhibition, award-winning chef Sophia Rudolph of Berlin’s Lovis Restaurant created a special ‘Food for Art’ menu inspired by Eva Jospin’s work for Ruinart. Rudolph’s innovative approach to fine dining did not disappoint, with each course carefully crafted to complement the champagne, resulting in a truly memorable dining experience.
