Born in Bucharest, Yonel Lebovici first studied medicine before turning to art and design. After studying at the École des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, he began his career in the 1960s creating furniture and metal art objects. He quickly became recognized for his innovative and daring style, blending the sculptural aesthetic with the functionality of his designs. Among his most famous works are the "Acapulco" chair (1962), the "Lune" lamp (1970), the "Zig-Zag" table (1972), and the "Saturne" mirror (1983). Yonel Lebovici also created several monumental sculptures, including the famous “Tour aux figures” (1986) located in La Défense, near Paris. Yonel Lebovici died in 1998, but his work continues to be exhibited in numerous galleries and museums around the world, and remains a source of inspiration for many contemporary designers.
