About the Item

Model designed for the Auriol House, France. Frame in fir wood Assembly by threaded rod, secured by nuts Piece from the artist's former collection. En 1965, Dominique Zimbacca expose les meubles issus de sa collaboration avec Françoise Sée à la galerie M.A.I situé au 12 rue Bonaparte, aujourd’hui remplacée par la Galerie Yves Gastou, et qui participe activement à la promotion des jeunes designers français. En 1979, Edmon Lay invite Dominique Zimbacca, dont il connaît les travaux grâce aux articles d’Aujourd’hui, art et architecture, à réaliser le mobilier de la maison Auriol à Gabaston, dans les Pyrénées-Atlantiques. L’étude préparatoire et la photo de la monographie (p. 105) nous permet de conclure qu’il existe plusieurs versions de pietements pour le modèle "Joker".

1980s "Miss, Don't You like Caviar?" pair of armchairs by Ettore Sottsass
By Ettore Sottsass
Located in Paris, FR
Price for a pair, 3 pairs available. Executed by Renzo Brugola Distributed by Blum Helman Gallery Collection Centre Georges Pompidou The Metropolitan Museum of Art collection In 1987, he designed the Miss, don’t you like caviar? chair for the I suppose you know what I’m talking about dining room suite. Each piece of this ensemble consists of a number of heterogeneous geometrical elements having a symbolic connotation. The honesty with which Sottsass designed and marketed this work to a luxury clientele could be seen as antithetical to modernism’s democratic ethos predicated on mass production. With the suite of furniture that includes this chair, there was no illusion of reaching ordinary consumers—the pieces are loft-scaled, exquisitely proportioned ensembles made of rare stones and exotic woods.
