Based on an original idea by Frédéric Bau, the EGGXTRAORDINAIRE exhibition invites 90 craftsmen and artists from around the world to highlight the Egg, universal symbol and perfect form, through creations in chocolate, wood, metal and many other materials.

Illustrated with magnificent photographs, this beautiful book invites you to discover the fascinating creations of artists and craftsmen such as Florence Lesage, Pierre Hermé, Gilles Marchal, Gwendoline Delcampo…

The first part of the book, devoted to the history of the egg in art, guides you through the ages to explore its symbolism: in turn the receptacle of life or charged with a miraculous aura, the egg is revealed in all its forms and interpretations.

William Amor’s unique artistic vision sprang from a desire to create art that has an element of poetry, celebrates nature and helps protect the environment. Through his unique creations, which are full of meaning and evoke an emotional response, the artist offers a different perspective on the world surrounding us, including items whose presence, existence and origin we may have forgotten or disregarded.
