Pendant Lamp by Jordi Vilanova, Methacrylate, Spain 1970's

About the Item

Ceiling lamp designed by Jordi Vilanova, Catalan designer in 1970. Very good vintage condition. Steel and methacrylate. Jordi Vilanova Bosch (Barcelona, 1925-1998) was a cabinetmaker, furniture designer and interior designer. In 1939 he began his training at the Escuela Industrial and at the Escuela de la Lonja, which he complemented with his work as a cabinetmaker, first at Casa Busquets (artistic furniture and decoration) and later in the workshop of Lluís Gili, also a cabinetmaker. . In 1952 he established himself as an interior designer and furniture and lighting designer, and from 1955 he began his work of study, reflection and design around furniture and interiors for children and youth, on which he will develop proposals renewing. In this field, it is worth highlighting the 1964 ADI FAD Silver Delta award that he received for the Delta children's stool. In 1960 he inaugurated a studio and shop on Freixa street in Barcelona, Ganduxer corner, which remained open until 2005. Vilanova offered his own proposal for furniture, lights and other accessories for home furnishings with a strong Nordic influence. From this establishment, custom-made interior design and furniture projects were also developed for homes, hotels, bank headquarters, shops, socio-sanitary facilities and offices, among others. Together with the jeweler Aureli Obispo, the painter Joan Vila-Grau, the ceramics artist Jordi Aguadé and the architect Jordi Bonet, he founded La Cantonada (1960-1975), a multidisciplinary group that defended the value of producing objects in small series, adapted to the needs of daily life and with the values of artisan creation as a revulsion to the acceleration and massification of industrialized products. His works were shown regularly at Hogarotel between 1960 and 1972 and also at various international fairs (New York, Paris...). In 1962, the group took over Ars Sacra, an institution dedicated to restoration and ornamentation work on churches with the aim of creating more austere and contemporary liturgical objects. The group will be the founder of the magazine Cuestiones de Arte (1967-1974). Jordi Vilanova was a member of the FAD, the Official Association of Decorators and Interior Designers of Barcelona, the National Union Association of Decorators or the American National Society of Interior Designers (NSID) among others.
