Rare 1970s Urano Palma sculptural throne chair
About the Item
Extraordinary perforated (drilled) "worm-eaten" beech wood, Italy, 1970s
In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use.
Urano Palma was born in Varese in 1936. After wandering through many Italian cities, careful to the artistic avant-garde movements, he settled in Milan, where he had the chance to meet great artists, such as Lucio Fontana.
During his more than fifty years career, Urano Palma held exhibitions in Germany (Ulm, Munich, Düsseldorf) in France, Spain, in the USA and even in South Korea, where he was chosen together with other eight sculptors to represent Italy for the Seoul Olympic Games. With a work made of cast iron Palma’s creation for the Olympics was adored, and at the moment it is permanently exhibited at the Museum of Contemporary Art. In Korea, precisely in Busan, he also created an eight-meter-high brass work, made for the International Exhibition of Art organised by the South Korean government.
From 1960, Urano Palma completely devoted himself to design, creating unique furniture pieces that balance on the verge of sculpture and furniture. He died in 2010, leaving behind some of the most recognisable Italian design and furniture pieces.
