The Spirit of Chairs
The chair as sculptural object: a surprising and delightful parade of seating that's not always for sitting--from Ron Arad and Mary Heilmann to Maria Pergay and Richard TuttleThe chairs in this book are not for everyday use. The generous layout of this fun, surprising and substantial volume allows readers to fully immerse themselves in its many curiosities and give their imagination free rein. Occupying a unique terrain between design and art, they are sometimes intended to be sat on--but equally and most importantly, they explore the sculptural possibilities of the chair.
Nicolas Polli and Jean Vincent Simonet use their photographic essays to interpret these modern and contemporary chairs, while texts examine their fruitful friction between art and design and explain their significance in the life of their collector, Thierry Barbier-Mueller.Designers
