Franz West Light Chandelier by Memphis 'Meta Collezione' '1991'

About the Item

Light chandelier (1991). Franz West (Austria) 1947-2012. Welded iron chain suspension lamp / blackish-gray patina. Franz West in a way reinterpreted Privat Lampe Des Kunstlers II by inverting it, and floating the chains horizontally, in the form of this extraordinarily raw "chandelier". It is alive, sculptural, animated with existential presence. A floating work of art (that works!).

    By Michael Graves (b.1934)
    Located in Brooklyn, NY
    Probably one of the rarest & most important works of late-20th century art furniture ever created!! In particular, an absolute tour-de-force by Michael Graves --- the greatest Postmodernist Architect of the 20th century! In terms of form and composition, one could liken it to many of Graves' buildings (Humana Tower, Louisville; Portland Municipal Building, Portland, Oregon; Government of the Netherlands Congress Bldg; etc. The Plaza vanity and stool is a true Museum-piece with pivoting brass-rimmed silvered mirror, hand-matched bird's-eye maple, lacquered wood (in his archetypal color palette of grayish-teal), mirrored "Busby Berkley-ish perfume shelves, brass and elegant light blue-gray velvet upholstery.
