Yves Klein Tables

The charming PupCup whirls, twirls and spins about to the delight of all it passes. Combining the iconic images of Yoshitomo Nara's Lonesome Puppy (Dog From Your Childhood) and The Cup Kids, the PupCup's head and body rotate in opposites directions creating a remarkable kinetic object. Requires two AA batteries.

This dinner service consists of six porcelain dinner plates designed by Prune Nourry and JR, and fabricated by Bernardaud. There are two each of three different designs that are printed on both sides of each plate. The verso of each plate shows details of the service, the artist's signature, and Bernardaud's stamp.

In the artist's own words:

"In this project, Prune and I wanted to focus on a man's most essential "tool," his hands, which can function as a drinking cup or as eating utensils. As Darwin put it: "Man could not have attained his present dominant position in the world without the use of his hands." Here, our hands have been photographed.... Prune and I live in New York where we initiated a community of artists that holds big dinners every month. Everybody cooks, everybody brings something. The dinner table is a nerve center where we share a taste for good things, the art of living well!
