Life in Art

Life in Art is a project launched by interior brand IDÉE in 2011 to expand art (=culture) based on the theme of everyday art.
The project has introduced a wide variety of art, including the works of artists who share a common interest in creation, regardless of fame, timelessness, or nationality, as well as exhibitions and collaborative works at IDÉE SHOP and MUJI stores, and auctions to connect art to the next generation.
