Alexandre de Betak’s Atelier Debuts as a Luminous Installation

During London Art Week 2025, creative visionary Alexandre de Betak opens the doors of his first London atelier. The space, still under construction, becomes the setting for an evolving installation composed entirely of light, a fitting introduction to de Betak’s new phase, defined by an exploration of light as architecture and emotion. This marks a decisive shift from decades of shaping others’ visions to realizing his own.

The work investigates scale, discipline, and style, with light functioning simultaneously as sculptural material and architectural instrument. French artist Alexandre de Betak frames the studio itself as a canvas for his installation, a project that embodies a transitional moment in his career, a move from orchestrating live spectacles to cultivating his independent artistic voice.

The opening, hosted by Serena Rees, Valerie Sadoun, and Charlotte Stockdale, coincides with Frieze London. Alexandre de Betak’s London atelier invites anticipation for the evolution of a designer who works at the intersection of fashion, performance, and architecture. The luminous installation signals the beginning of a new creative trajectory, positioning the studio as an active site of exploration.
