Metal, plastic, foam and leather - Edition of 6 pieces (3 Solo & Pillon saddles, in 3 different colors + 3 Banana saddles in 3 different colors) // Banana Saddle (Red) by Olivier Mosset is a sculptural piece that transforms an everyday motorcycle saddle into a minimalist art object. Created in 2019 using metal, plastic, foam, and leather, the work presents a sleek black seat with a striking red rectangular insert at its center, drawing attention to its bold, graphic simplicity. Mounted against a textured wall, the piece merges functional design with Mosset's minimalist aesthetic, emphasizing form, color, and material over narrative. Part of a limited edition of six, each saddle in varying colors, Banana Saddle (Red) exemplifies Mosset's approach to reducing objects to their essential visual components, inviting contemplation on the boundaries between art and utilitarian design.

What is minimalism?
Minimalism is a style in music and visual arts characterized by pared-down designs and simplicity. It began in Western art after World War II, gaining prominence particularly in American visual arts. Minimalism draws heavily on aspects of modernism and is often viewed as a reaction against Abstract Expressionism, as well as a precursor to post-minimal art practices. Prominent minimalist artists include Agnes Martin, Donald Judd, Robert Morris, Frank Stella, and Dan Flavin.
