About the Item
Solid oak bookcase with slatted sides and back panel floating over a sled base, designed by Missouri-based craftsman, Gene Caples. A graduate of the Kansas City Art Institute and the Cranbrook Academy of Art (where he acquired his Masters of Fine Art in Sculpture), Caples was active from the 1960s until his passing in 2015, having worked in various mediums including bronze and clay. Designed in the 1960s, this bookcase was built in 1999 and bears the carved signature 'GC 99' to its rear foot. The lower of the two shelves is adjustable. Robust construction with a decidedly Scandinavian aesthetic.

Vladimir Kagan Architectural Louvered & Illuminated Room Divider with COA, 1967
By Vladimir Kagan
Located in Brooklyn, NY
An incredibly rare louvered and illuminated room divider in solid walnut floating over a cylindrical brass foot, custom-designed by Vladimir Kagan circa 1967. Six sculptural, marquise-shaped slats are angled at 45 degrees to the frame and flank the light box which houses a single 6-foot fluorescent bulb.
Authenticated by and registered with the Vladimir Kagan Design Group, this piece is offered to the collector with all corresponding documents including certificate of authenticity, company letter, related archival photos, and numbered registration plaque. While their archivists have seen similar slatted dividers that Kagan designed (see last image in this listing), they’d not seen one with an incorporated lighting element before and thus feel that this example may well be one-of-a-kind or, at the very least, from a strictly limited run.
That said, it seems that this general concept of combining lighting with room partitioning...
