About the Item

Peter Frederiksen Untitled (Bugs Bunny Trap Piano) Jacquard Woven Tapestry Dimensions: 50 x 68.5 in (approx.) Edition of 5 – Rare, quietly released This striking jacquard tapestry by acclaimed textile artist Peter Frederiksen captures a moment of cartoon absurdity and imminent chaos—Bugs Bunny’s gloved hand poised above a piano key wired to explode. The composition draws from mid-century animation and Warner Bros. iconography, invoking a sense of childhood tension and humor made uncanny through scale and execution. Woven in rich reds, neutrals, and inky blacks, the tapestry combines meticulous craftsmanship with Frederiksen’s signature visual language: cinematic freeze-frames charged with psychological unease. A pioneer of machine embroidery as fine art, Frederiksen translates his cartoon-inspired world into the realm of textile-based storytelling, here utilizing digital jacquard weaving to achieve precision at scale. Produced in an exceptionally limited edition of 5, this untitled piece is part of Frederiksen’s broader investigation into visual memory, cartoon logic, and the subconscious. It was never formally announced or marketed, making its appearance on the secondary market exceedingly rare. Works from this "quiet release" period—especially those using jacquard weaving instead of his usual freehand embroidery—have become increasingly sought after. From a private U.S. collection. A rare opportunity to own a large-scale, editioned tapestry from a rising figure in contemporary textile art—bridging high craft, nostalgia, and conceptual rigor.

Mathieu Matégot - Sans titre, tapestry, french, modern, abstract, wool, design

By Mathieu Matégot

Located in London, GB

Mathieu Matégot (1910-2001) Sans titre c.1950s wool tapestry, Manufactura de Tapeçarias de Portalegre 150 x 70 cm signed ‘Matégot’ and with the Manufactura de Tapeçarias de Portalegre monogram (lower right) Price: $11,000 USD Provenance: Barry Friedman Ltd, New York (stock no. BF21324) Notes: Mathieu Matégot was a Hungarian-born French designer, architect and artist. After studying at Budapest's School of Fine Arts in 1929, Matégot travelled across Italy and the USA until settling in Paris in 1931 where he worked as a set designer, window dresser and tapestry maker. Matégot volunteered for the French resistance at the start of the Second World War, only to be captured by the Nazis. A dreadful fate for most, however, it was during his time as a prisoner of war that the artist discovered metalworking techniques (such as Rigitulle) which he later patented and became renowned for. Upon his release, Matégot was awarded French citizenship. After the war, the artist's interest in tapestry was renewed after being introduced to contemporary tapestry revivalist, Jean Lurçat. However, in order to make ends meet, Matégot pursued furniture design; he established a workshop in Paris and dedicated his time to translating the groundbreaking metal techniques into popular handcrafted objects. In 1959, Matégot abandoned furniture design and focused exclusively on his passion for abstract tapestries. He continued his work as a pioneer of French Modern tapestry...
