Alexandre Noll

Alexandre Henri Noll was a French wood sculptor and furniture designer. He spent the First World War in Macedonia, during which he made numerous watercolor sketches and wood engravings. It was not until the 1920s that he turned his full-time attention to artistic design. Noll began with copies of Chinese art, umbrella handles and Art Deco lamp bases, commissioned by fashion designer Paul Poiret. Noll was a member of the artist group L'Evolution, founded by the Éditeur d'art (art publisher) Arthur Goldscheider. In the same year he took part in the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes, for which he designed a series of sculptures. In 1935 he began to produce his "furniture sculptures", which he made out of sycamore, mahogany, teak and ebony, among other things. He took part in the Paris World Exhibition in 1937, where he showed some vases, jugs and crockery made of wood and polished. During the Second World War, Noll developed his own style with his furniture and sculpture designs. Contrary to the trend towards mass production that prevailed after the war, he produced wooden furniture individually. In the 1950s, Noll finally turned to wood carving and took part in numerous exhibitions in France with his works.
