Rare Galerie Oxar Paris Floor Lamp as Light Sculpture, Published Casa Vogue 1973

Beautiful and super rare 'Cassapanca di buona memoria' (chest of beautiful memories) by famed Italian artist Emilio Tadini (1927-2002). Tadini was invited to exhibit his paintings at the Venice Biennale in both 1978 and 1982 and was a true polymath in that he was also equally impressive as an artist, sculptor and poet. Umberto Eco, in a eulogy, said of him "a painter who writes, a writer who paints." This design was a main feature in the September 1987 issue of Casa Vogue...

Superb and super rare pair of MORGANA mirrors designed by Angelo Cortesi and Sergio Chiappà -Catto. The frames of these mirrors are finished in aluminum brushed orthogonally to create a wonderful three dimensional op art interplay of light and shadow from a simple flat surface. This design clearly imbues the influence of important italian artist Getulio Alviani's masterful series of 'superficie a testura vibratile' (surfaces of vibrating textures). The central square opening was designed to either accomodate a mirror or a jewel like object of choice or a photo , a cameo etc. This is documented in the Formaluce February 1971 article. The Morgana mirrors were artisan produced in 1970 for the exclusive 'Forme e superficie' (forms and surfaces) gallery in Turin ,Italy. Both mirrors retain their original manufacturer's labels. 'Forme e superficie" employed some of the most brilliant local artists, designers and sculptors such as Nerone and Patuzzi to produce art and design pieces in exclusive small editions. Cortesi and Chiappà -Cattò are well known for their beautiful 'Cicindela'and 'Angolo' light sculptures also produced by Forme e Superficie. The Morgana mirrors were published in:- CASA...

Anne Boysen 'Moonsetter' light sculpture and floor lamp for Louis Poulsen. New, current limited production in series of 100. The sculptural floor lamp in chrome-plated aluminium has a rotating disc that allows customisation of the reflection of the glare-free light emitted by the LED light source elegantly submerged in the frame. The disc rotates 360° around its own axis and is white on one side and reflective on the other. Tilted towards the white side, the light becomes soft and diffuse, whereas the opposite chrome side reflects the light panel directly for a completely different expression. The light is directed according to the position of the disc. The surroundings are mirrored in the frame...
