Bucherer Celebrates Partnership With Artist Leon Löwentraut At NYC Flagship

Swiss luxury watch and jewelry retailer, Bucherer, has partnered with emerging talent Leon Löwentraut for a captivating new exhibition at the TimeMachine store.

Leon is a watch enthusiast and avid collector and has been a loyal friend of Bucherer Düsseldorf for many years.

This partnership resulted naturally out of mutual interests - a shared passion for aesthetics, fine art, and craftsmanship and of course a love for timepieces, the release discloses.

leon2.jpg“I am very honored to have this cooperation with Bucherer. We are a perfect match. This collaboration shares a love of design, passion, luxury, and art. For me, it is important to bring people together with art. My inspiration comes from people, relationships, and behavior which is reflected in my paintings. Events like our evening together start a conversation about culture, soul, and experience. This is most important to artists and time is rare. Time is not endless. We must enjoy the time we have,” Leon Löwentraut states.

Löwentraut has created an exclusive homage to Bucherer entitled “Miss Liberty” in celebration of the opening of the flagship boutique one year ago, the centerpiece of the exhibition.

Löwentraut continues, “I myself have a love of watches and when you view my paintings you see many circuits. Like a watch these circuits are singular.”

Guests enjoyed music by DJ Alexandra Richards, champagne, and light bites, while they took in the art exhibition.
