Discreet Beauty of Simplicity: Jörg Schellmann

內容簡介

內容簡介 A clothbound survey on the sculptural, minimalist furniture of a German art-dealer-turned-furniture-designer A longtime art dealer and publisher, Jörg Schellmann (born 1944) has been working with the world’s most important contemporary artists for over 40 years, but only began producing his own furniture designs in the past decade. Schellmann prioritizes functionalism and a piece’s ability to endure the test of time both physically and stylistically. His sofas, benches and shelving units are largely unadorned and instead focused on the formal geometry of the pieces with the occasional bright accent color, clearly evoking the Minimalist and Conceptualist practices of the artists with whom Schellmann has worked. He also draws inspiration from trends in industrial design, employing material such as tubular steel, perforated aluminum and exposed metal bolts. The beauty of Schellmann’s furniture is in its utility. This volume presents a vast assortment of Schellmann’s designs accompanied by writing from Mateo Kries, Donald Judd and Liam Gillick, among others.
