It is one of the highlights brought to the capital by the critically acclaimed Chicago-based show, The Sculptural Objects Functional Art and Design Fair (SOFA), taking up an area dedicated to celebrating contemporary three-dimensional art and design.

Fibula - The Big Cat is by French artist Lolek (Laurent Wilga Lerat ) who was born in Paris in 1984.
Cats, abstract animals and people are often the subjects of his art work, some of which are also on show at the fair in the Paris Art Web stand up on the Gallery level.


A more user-friendly size would be this Groovies Cat in Bronze measuring H51 x 74 x 35 cm.






An eclectic mix of pieces drawn from antiquity to the present day are drawing art enthusiasts and collectors. Equally enticing are original sketches, modern pop culture art and luxury designs that integrate art with architecture and interior design, including furniture, glassware, ceramics, mirrors, lighting, art, clocks, rugs, tapestries, jewellery, silverware and sculpture.
