Dibbern X Anna Pascher
Dibbern recently launched Brasserie – a collaboration with Düsseldorf-based contemporary artist Anna Pascher. Famed for her large-format works in navy-blue, Pascher captures the world of everyday objects and transforms table scenes into colourful, lively still lifes. She experiments with materials and surfaces, applies acrylic as well as oil paints to paper and canvas. In order to transfer her impressions, emotions and thoughts directly onto the canvas in an immediate and intuitive way, she mainly uses acrylic markers, which has become her artistic trademark. Anna’s surreal table scenes, in which she playfully captures
elements and delicacies of French cuisine, are particularly fascinating. The theme of table culture, eating together with family and friends plays a central role in her work. “With the ‘Brasserie’ collection, we wanted to create a bistro series that combines our and Anna Pascher’s passion for table settings. The series is the result of a harmonious collaboration in which Anna Pacher’s art, her personal history and our expertise in porcelain manufacturing are stylishly combined,” says Jan and Ben Dibbern.
