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 upcoming opening, set to coincide with Frieze London, will be hosted by Serena Rees, Valerie Sadoun, and Charlotte Stockdale. The event will feature music by Paul Simonon, cuisine by Rose Chalalai Singh, and a custom cocktail by Space Talk.
Alexandre de Betak’s London atelier invites anticipation for the evolution of a designer who continues to blur the boundaries between fashion, performance, and architecture. The forthcoming luminous installation signals the beginning of a new creative trajectory, positioning the studio as an active site of exploration.
