Frédéric Cordier Artist
Frédéric Cordier is a Swiss- Canadian artist born in Montreal in 1985. His work revolves around the notion of systems to which he associates the idea of dysfunctionality. His formal preoccupations explore the basic elements of a specific vocabulary, aiming at a highly visual efficacy with simple interventions that play on rhythm and pattern, full and empty, black and white. Through sculpture, architectural installation, and drawing, Frédéric Cordier explores a visual language that focuses on repetition. His solo exhibitions include Toppings (2022) in Lausanne, Vapeurs (2022) in Quebec City, and Night Views (2023) in Montreal. In 2023, he also released a monograph covering his work from 2010 to 2022. In 2024, Cordier participated in the group exhibition Hantologie/Anthologie #2 in Saint-Étienne, France.

“For me, a cellar is a form of grid, a repetitive and utilitarian structure. From a geometric pattern that I drew and imagined in volume, I intervened on the structure of the cellar in a simple way, by subtracting the elements of its composition. The sequencing principle is thus disturbed by a deconstruction until the complete degradation of the pattern, which is that of the cellar. From these full and empty spaces results a complex and light binary frame in which the bottles will be displayed in a gradually decreasing sequence.”

Fade Out explores the notion of the wine cellar and transforms it, giving rise to an object-artwork that lies at the intersection of architectural structure and design object. Resulting from a balance between geometric rigor and material sensitivity, this work, conceived by Frédéric Cordier and realized by Cellart’s artisans, expresses the subtle tension between order and deconstruction, fullness and emptiness, function and form. It offers an experience in which wine, light, and space converse in measured harmony, revealing the beauty of the gesture as much as that of the structure. This approach embodies the artist’s process: an exploration of systems and their fragility, where the rigor of the motif meets the freedom of gesture.

Inspired by Fade Out, Cordier Compact offers a more intimate, collectible interpretation of the original work — conceived for private interiors, curated spaces, and collectors seeking architectural presence at a refined scale. By distilling the essence of the motif — the dialogue between solid and void — it translates Cordier’s sculptural language into a compact format, without compromising its rigor or expressiveness. Crafted in limited series, each piece is produced using the same noble materials and meticulous craftsmanship as the original creation. Finishes, textures, and tonal variations can be curated to harmonize with the surrounding architecture. Light interacts subtly with each surface, revealing the intentionality of every gesture and the balance between presence and restraint. A reduced format, yet fully structured — Cordier Compact extends the Fade Out universe with quiet sophistication.

“Rayon referring to oriental geometrical art, this motif also recalls the structure of a hive. Variations are integrated into the principle of repetition in order to animate the composition. The complexity of the motif and its alterations lend themselves to a sort of meditation.”

Cellart continues to engage in a broader dialogue with artists through a series of ongoing collaborations. These encounters give rise to a body of work where artistic vision and craftsmanship intersect — each piece exploring new expressions of form, material, and function. Together, they compose an evolving landscape of creations that extend our approach to design, where utility becomes narrative and objects take on a more sculptural, collectible dimension.

“For me, these objects are not simply accessories — they are a way to extend the experience of wine through matter, gesture, and detail. Each piece is designed to interact with the bottle in a natural, almost intuitive way, revealing it rather than containing it. What interests me is this subtle relationship between object and ritual, where function disappears and only the experience remains.”

Le Seau à Champagne is a three-piece vessel, meticulously crafted using the finest woodworking craftsmanship techniques — conceived not only for your most exceptional Champagne bottles, but also for the finest waters. Handcrafted from an intricate assembly of multiple wood components, each piece is carefully shaped and treated to ensure structural integrity when filled with ice and water. This artisanal precision guarantees durability, performance and enduring elegance. At its core, a metal insert cradles the primary bottle, delicately placed at the heart of the piece, surrounded by ice for perfectly controlled temperature. The design also accommodates Magnum formats. The ensemble is accompanied by two metal display stands set on wooden bases, conceived as natural extensions of the central piece. They elevate the composition and transform service into a moment of architectural staging. The exterior is finished in a shimmering pearlescent lacquer, capturing light with subtle brilliance and giving the object a sculptural presence. Available in natural wood or pearly white finish, Le Seau à Champagne transcends its function to become a true statement piece — a celebration of ritual, craftsmanship and the art of hosting.
