Love it or hate it, postmodern <\/a><\/span>Memphis Group<\/span><\/a> furniture<\/a> is back. Some people think of the Milan-based collective as the design equivalent to <\/span>Patrick Nagel\u2019s kitschy screenprints<\/span><\/a>, but for others Memphis represents what made the early 1980s so great: freedom of expression, dizzying patterns and off-the-wall colors.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cAs someone who was born in the 1980s, Memphis at times feels like the grown-up, artsy version of the toys I used to play with,\u201d says Shaun Kasperbauer, cofounder of the Brooklyn studio <\/span>Souda<\/span><\/a>. <\/span>\u201c<\/span>It feels a little nostalgic, but at the same time it seems like an aesthetic that\u2019s perfectly suited to an internet age \u2014 loud, colorful and utilizing forms that are graphic and often a little unexpected.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

New technologies have certainly helped reboot Memphis, as is evidenced by <\/span>Kartell<\/a> and<\/span> its recent collection \u201c<\/span>Kartell Goes Sottsass. A Tribute to Memphis.\u201d<\/span> The legendary Ettore Sottsass<\/a> had initially presented his drawings of taboret stools, vases and lamps to the Italian design company back in 2004, but it took 11 years \u2014 and advances in plastic materials and injection techniques \u2014 before the company could produce the concepts commercially.<\/span><\/p>\n

To mark the launch, Kartell tapped Memphis Group members <\/span>George Sowden<\/span><\/a> and French-born Nathalie du Pasquier to upholster various chairs<\/span> in eye-popping fabrics. (No stranger to such commissions, in 2014, du Pasquier designed a range of patterns for American Apparel.)<\/span><\/p>\n

Peter Shire for Memphis Big Sur sofa, 1986. Offered by Ammann Gallery<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

As <\/span>gallery owner Gabrielle Ammann<\/span><\/a> notes, Sotheby\u2019s recent auction of David Bowie\u2019s Memphis collection also brought the movement back into the spotlight, and rightly so. <\/span>\u201cI think that a review of the revolutionary 1980s Memphis period is long overdue,\u201d says Ammann, who showed a Tetris-like 1973 tapestry by Andrea Branzi<\/a> at the Collective dEsign fair earlier this month. \u201cLooking into who collected those pieces,\u201d she adds, \u201cwe find visionaries like Karl Lagerfeld<\/a> and Bowie.\u201d Clearly, they were onto something. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Memphis story begins in 1980, when <\/span>Sotts<\/span>a<\/span>ss<\/span>, then a beacon of Italian postmodernism, tapped younger designers to develop a collection for the Milan Furniture Fair the next year. The mission: Boldly reject the stark minimalism of the 1970s and shatter the rules of form and function. So as a record of Bob Dylan\u2019s \u201cStuck Inside of Mobile\u201d played on repeat, they took their name from the song, devised their marketing strategy and plotted the postmodern look that would come to define the decade of excess \u2014 primary colors, blown-up proportions, playful nods to <\/span>Art Deco<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Pop<\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n

An image of Sottsass posing with his collaborators in a conversation pit shaped like a boxing ring appeared in magazines all over the world, and Lagerfield furnished his Monte Carlo penthouse entirely in Memphis furniture. Meanwhile, members like Andrea Branzi, <\/span>Aldo Cibic<\/span><\/a>, Michele de Lucchi, du Pasquier, <\/span>Shiro Kuramata<\/span><\/a>, Paola Navone<\/a>, Peter Shire<\/a>, Sowden, Sottsass and his wife, journalist Barbara Radice, went on to enjoy fruitful careers.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"

Anna Karlin<\/a>‘s recent Pattern Chess Piece stools are the descendants of Memphis style.<\/p><\/div>\n

Eventually, the Reagan era gave way to cool 1990s minimalism, and Memphis fell out of fashion. Sottsass left the group in 1985, and by 1987, it had disbanded. Yet 35 years later, Memphis is back and can be traced to today\u2019s most exciting designers. \u201cWe have enough distance from the original works to place it very clearly in its historical context,\u201d says <\/span>Anna Karlin<\/span><\/a>, whose funky Pattern Chess Piece stools<\/span> clearly nod to Sottsass. \u201cIt is only when this happens that there is the space to pay our own respects and have fun with the influence.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

As if to confirm this, the Memphis Group is getting institutional accolades as well, with places like the Met Breuer and Triennale di Milano holding exhibitions this year to honor the centennial of Sottsass\u2019s birth.<\/span><\/p>\n

Below, we\u2019ve gathered eight seminal works that embody the spirit of Memphis.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"\"

Michele De Lucchi Oceanic lamp, 1980s. Offered by Open Air Modern<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

Is it a snake, a zebra or both? With its playful anthropomorphic form, this lamp suggests all three.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"

Aldo Cibic Sophia writing desk. Offered by Hopper + Space<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

Known for his unorthodox use of materials, Cibic\u2019s writing desk (which looks anything but) features lacquered wood and a pastel veneer.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"

Marco Zanini Roma chair, 1986. Offered by The Modern Archive<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

Who said molded fiberglass can\u2019t be used in furniture? Zanini tried it out, and in 2014 musician St. Vincent sat on a metallic pink one for her self-titled album cover.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"\"

Ettore Sottsass for Memphis Carlton bookcase room divider, 1981. Offered by Derive<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

Perhaps the most iconic Memphis design, this bookshelf cheekily nods to Art Deco with its symmetrical Egyptian motif.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"

Martine Bedin Super Lamp, 1981. Offered by Hopper + Space<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

Bedin compared her cartoonish wheeled lamp to <\/span>“a small dog that I could carry with me.\u201d Initially, design buffs were baffled, but it became an instant classic.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"\"

George Sowden Milano Gloucester chair, ca. 1986. Offered by Hopper + Space<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

Loaned to the Design Museum in 2001, this chair pokes fun at the notion of an ornate king\u2019s throne.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"

Shiro Kuramata terrazzo side table, 1985. Offered by Derive<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

A high-low mix of materials helped defined Memphis, as evidenced by Kuramata\u2019s table made from colored glass-infused terrazzo.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"\"

Javier Mariscal melamine and lacquered metal serving tray, 1981. Offered by Ultra Moderne<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n
