About the Item

Polished metal floor lamp by Philippe Hiquilly. Signed PH. Hiquilly was born in 1925 in Paris, France, to a decorator father and a painter mother, Hiquily was introduced to art at a very young age, assisting sculptors such as Despiau, and attended the École des Beaux-Arts in Orléans. In 1945 upon his return from fighting in the Second World War, where he served in Indo China, he enrolled in the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts. There he met César (1921-1998), Albert Ferraud (1921-2008), Michel Guino (1926-2013) and Robert Muller (1920-2003). He graduated in 1953 and left school after winning a prize for one of his iron sculptures, Le Neptune. He then found a studio in the 14th arrondissement of Paris where he developed his work and his ‘direct metal’ technique, in which sheet metal is predominant. He went to Germaine Richier's studio to present his first metal works. At the end of the 1950s he strayed from the object to undertake a more advanced reflection on form, leading him to the idea of simplifying the human figure, mainly female, sometimes going as far as a very abstract approach to form. For more than fifty years he worked with iron, steel and brass, seeking to give life to his works. Strongly influenced by the work of Alexander Calder, movement is at the heart of his art, as seen throughout his kinetic sculptures. One of the most striking examples is his Girouettes, which were created in 1963 during a project in Marbella, Spain. This theme would mark him for the rest of his life. The artist always sought to disturb through his work, "If art does not provoke, I do not see where art is", he said. Philippe Hiquily died in March 2013 in Villejuif. Hiquily's works are in numerous public collections such as the Museum of Contemporary Art, Havana, Cuba; MoMA, New York, United States; Hirshhorn Museum, Washington, United States; Museum of Contemporary Art, Montreal, Canada; Musée d'Art Moderne, Paris, France; Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, France; Musée d'Art et d'Industrie de Saint-Etienne, France; Guggenheim Museum, New York, United States.

Poul Henningsen Ph 80 Floor Lamp

By Poul Henningsen, Louis Poulsen

Located in Berkeley, CA

The fixture emits diffuse and symmetrical light. The majority of the light is directed downwards, and the opal acrylic shades provide comfortable room lighting. The red hue of the top reflector helps give the light a warmer glow. Poul Henningsen designed the three-shade system back in 1925-1926. The first lights using the system were designed by PH in cooperation with Louis Poulsen for an exhibition in Paris. This partnership continued up until his death in 1967. Throughout his life, PH sought to create glare-free light, direct light where it was most needed, and create soft shadows, using incandescent bulbs as a light source. PH 80...
