Buying Vintage for Your Home By Caroline Ryder

Courteney Cox’s Malibu home

Buying vintage or antique furniture can add depth and patina to a contemporary interior. But with the proliferation of online re-sellers, alongside the myriad seasonal fairs, auctions, flea markets and estate sales, the vintage shopper might be hard-pressed to separate a George Nelson cabinet or Jean Prouvé chair from more ordinary items. The Internet has made shopping for vintage furnishings more accessible than ever, but not necessarily easier—how can you be sure you’re getting a quality piece? Jason Stein, chief curator at Viyet, an online destination for designer vintage and contemporary furnishings, recommends shopping at sites with strong curation and thoroughly vetted pieces. “There’s really good, strong editing that happens in this particular space, whether you’re looking for an antique piece or one that is newer and high quality,” he says. Here are some tips on finding the strongest values in vintage:

https://inhabit.corcoran.com/buying-vintage-home/

Shop Estate Sales and Flea Markets Estate sales can be a goldmine for the vintage shopper—find sales in your area by visiting Estatesales.net, and hunt for sales in affluent neighborhoods, or where the seller has dropped some telling keywords about the collection. If something piques your interest, show up early. “That’s when the top collectors or dealers or pickers will be there,” Stein says. Follow the Auction Houses It’s also worth keeping an eye on what’s happening at the big auction houses too —Christie’s, Sotheby’s and Bonhams. Auction estimates tend to be on the conservative side, compared with a piece in a retail setting— but they can always soar to great heights, especially for pedigreed pieces. “Sometimes you’ll find better deals at auction, sometimes not,” Stein says. “On occasion though, some great values come up. If you’re persistent and interested, you’ll find things.”

Courteney Cox’s Malibu home

Look for Gems at Big Events Some annual design and sales events can yield good finds—Stein recommends FOG Design + Art in San Francisco, Zona Maco in Mexico City, Modernism Week in Palm Springs, the Collective Design Fair in New York, the San Francisco Fall Antiques Show, the Salon Art + Design in New York, and Design Miami, which happens alongside Art Basel. “One of my favorite events is in the summer, at Brimfield in Massachusetts,” he adds. “It’s one of the great flea markets. Much like the estate sales, you should get there early. Wake up at five every morning and hit the fields with your little cup of coffee and a bad Danish. It’s really fun.”

https://inhabit.corcoran.com/buying-vintage-home/

Check for Quality, Provenance Don’t forget to bring a flashlight to check for scratches and marks—an iPhone flashlight works just fine. Antiques professionals like Stein also carry a jeweler’s loop, to examine a hallmark on a piece of silver or a small detail on an object. Look for gently-used pieces, meaning they can get a “good” to “very good” condition report, and still have value in the secondary market. That doesn’t mean you should completely ignore items in less-than-ideal condition. “For me it depends how interesting the piece is,” Stein says. “If it is an important piece that has had a hard life, it may be worth taking on the project.”

Items available on viyet.com.

Make Sure It’s the Real Deal Whether you’re buying a vintage piece online or in person, always ask the seller about the condition, authenticity, history of restorations and provenance (the lineage and history of ownership). “This is important when a piece has been part of a well-known collection or has an interesting past; it’s definitely going to add value and helps establish age,” Stein says. So, let’s say you come upon the iconic mid-century chair of your dreams, whether at auction, online or an estate sale. You’ve asked all the right questions—and received the right answers: It’s a first or second issue that has been well-cared for; the leather is gently worn, with no tears, and a beautiful wood choice. Now what? “If the price is right, you have a good feeling about the piece, and it works with your style, go for it,” Stein says. “It’s an exciting way to work, following your heart. The thrill of discovery has launched many a wonderful collection.” Enjoy the Thrill of the Find You might suffer buyer’s remorse, but it’s not the end of the world. If you bought it at auction, stow it away for six months to a year before you reintroduce it to another auction or another format. “Sending it into the online space will put fresh eyes on it,” Stein says. Of course, to truly have an edge in this competitive marketplace, it helps to educate yourself. Stein swears by the Thames and Hudson Dictionary of 20th Century Design and Designers, Ann Massey’s Interior Design of the 20th Century, Taschen’s books on furniture, and books on furniture classics published by design experts Charlotte and Peter Fiell. Before long, you might find you’re eating, sleeping and breathing vintage furniture—as Stein well knows. “There’s nothing quite like the challenge of going after a piece, followed by the thrill of the acquisition,” he says. “That ultimate excitement, the sense of being the victor—that feeling’s priceless.

And the results, more often than not, are very beautiful. On this early summer day, though, we are examining something she considers a failure. It is an example of the kind of object for which she is becoming well known, a delicate feather made from a block of white oak. She doesn’t really carve the wood. Rather, using mostly tools she has made or modified for the purpose, she excavates the wood, and uses its deep structure of dense medullary rays and rings to reveal very thin undulating forms. The result is quiet, small, hard-won magic. The revelation of the structure of the tree in the delicacy of the feather seems to say something about the shape of life itself. “The feather gives form to an experiment which is to find the potential within the cellular structure of various species,” she has written. “The feather symbolizes that which is ethereal— the soul, contemplation—is deeply complex within the framework of a simple form, and is a testament to the resilience of nature. To me, it represents life and death, and the evolution of our planet.”

The feathers grew from an invitation to make a work for a project in Canada titled Decoys. Many wood artists might have responded by making a really beautiful duck, but she did something else entirely. She has made twenty-five feathers so far, each one unique in structure and feeling. The simplest took two weeks to make, others longer. Collectors who know about them are eager to buy one. “I will never sell this,” she says of the feather we are examining, pointing out where she went wrong. I am not sure I can see the error, even with my reading glasses. But in keeping this failure, she at least has one she can show visitors, and it reminds her of something important. “Everything I do is an experiment,” she says, adding that experiments don’t always work. When we met, Carpenter was looking forward to a summer in residence at Purchase College, State University of New York, where she was planning to make her first chair—a rocker, because she likes things that move. “I may do something based on a bird’s wing. At least that’s an idea I have right now,” she says. She is also planning to work on a folding screen inspired by her sister’s work in plant pathology and microbiology.

It might seem surprising that an artist like Carpenter would wait until the age of thirty-three to try to make her first chair. But she works slowly, and each piece she makes is an exploration of some idea, or more often an aesthetic idea fused with a scientific or technological one. For example, a table whose legs are stylized jaguars grasping the top in their mouths is dramatic in itself. But it also employs innovative wood-turning techniques. A larger table seems to be a continuous band, whose top curves downward to provide its support. Its form, however, derives from the numbers in the Fibonacci sequence—a mathematical relationship seen in many living things. “Miriam is incredibly talented, innovative, and smart,” says Robert Aibel, owner of Moderne Gallery in Philadelphia, which has shown her work at fairs in New York and Miami, and will do so again this November at the Salon Art + Design in New York. “I firmly believe that she will be one of the major figures of the twentyfirst century” he adds. Aibel, who is known for dealing in the work of George Nakashima and Wharton Esherick, rarely represents living artists. His frustration, he says, and that of his clients, is that she has produced relatively little work.

I first encountered Carpenter when, soon after graduating from the Rhode Island School of Design, she was working, as assistant designer to Mira Nakashima, at George Nakashima Woodworker in New Hope, Pennsylvania. During the seven years she worked there, ending in 2014, she designed several pieces of furniture in the Nakashima idiom, including one named the Carpenter coffee table. “It was challenging to work within a consistent set of rules, to always be asking yourself ‘Would George do that?’ ‘Would Mira do that?’” she recalls.

She has moved a mile or so away now, as artist in residence at the Raymond Farm Center, the house that Antonin Raymond, an American architect who had an important career in Japan before (and after) World War II, remodeled for himself upon his return. From the road, it looks like a sprawling, Quakerishly random old farmhouse; from the rear, where it overlooks a pond, it feels Japanese. When Raymond intervened to get George Nakashima and his family released from one of the internment camps in which Japanese-Americans were confined during the war, he established the Bucks County furniture tradition to which Carpenter, who grew up nearby, is heir. Now, Raymond’s descendants are seeking to re-establish it as a center for arts and design, and Carpenter is the first resident. Carpenter’s current pieces do not look Nakashima-like, though she attributes much of her reverence for wood to her work at Nakashima, where she began to see every knot, every ring and vein as evidence of the tree’s struggling and flourishing. She has moved beyond wood, carving plastic and making Japanese- inspired ceramics and silkscreens, for which she creates surprising and elegant wooden frames. She used computerassisted fabrication in the Fibonacci table and seems quite willing to embrace other new materials and technologies, but on her own experimental terms.

As we sat at the kitchen table, she fiddled a bit with the cubes of oak she uses to make her feathers. “At Nakashima we had a warehouse full of extraordinary wood,” she says, laughing. “I have a box of blocks.” But Carpenter can take any one of those blocks and release something unique and extraordinary that is hidden within.

Not-to-Miss Fall Art Events By Paul Laster

Get ready for that art fair small talk. Linda Nylind

Just as important as taking in the offerings at museums and galleries is seeing what’s fresh to the market at the fall’s premier art fairs and not-to-be-missed at biennials—in addition to talks with artists and curators, who can lend new perspectives to works currently on view. These are the events you’ll want to see and be seen at. NOVEMBER Fair: “The Salon Art + Design” Park Ave Armory, 643 Park Avenue, New York November 10 to 13 Offering the three things every sophisticated urban dweller needs—smartly designed furniture, decorative arts and a collection of fine art—The Salon Art + Design returns to the Park Avenue Armory for its sixth edition. Showcasing some 50 galleries representing 11 countries, the fair features a special jewel-box exhibition presented by Maison Giampiero Bodino in the Armory’s Tiffany-designed Library Room and a large-scale immersive environment, titled Parley for the Oceans, which addresses threats to our ecosystem, which was created in collaboration with artist Doug Aitken. Other highlights include Michael Eden’s Wedgewouldn’t Vases at Adrian Sassoon Gallery, a elegant pair of stools designed by Giò Ponti in the 1950s at Galleria Rossella Colombari, dream-inspired paintings from the 1950s by Roberto Matta at Thomas Monahan Fine Art and a somewhat surreal Pipilotti Rist photo of a nude woman listening to the sole of her foot at Vivian Horan Fine Art. http://observer.com/2017/09/fall-arts-events-preview-2017/

The Salon Art + Design will take place in New York November 9–13 at the Park Avenue Armory. Now in its sixth edition, the fair brings together more than 50 galleries and a range of artworks, design pieces, rarities, and curiosities. It is designed to reflect its collectors, who are unafraid of mixing genres, materials, eras, or movements. Whitewall spoke with The Salon’s executive director, Jill Bokor, about some new partnerships this year, such as with Giampiero Bodino and Parley for the Oceans, and what discoveries await. WHITEWALL: The fair features participants from 11 countries, including 32 international galleries. Has the fair become more international in makeup over the years? How does that affect the dynamics? JILL BOKOR: The international quality of the fair resides in the material presented as much as in the geography of the participating galleries. We are welcoming our first-ever exhibitors from Denmark and Spain, ensuring material that hasn’t been shown at The Salon before. Both bring contemporary design. On the historic side, we’re thrilled to be joined by Rossella Colombari of Milan, Galerie Le Beau of Brussels, and Magen H of New York. For The Salon, one of the tricks is to balance the vintage with the contemporary; these three galleries with focus on mid- and late-20thcentury European design address that particular niche and with a nod to the U.S., some wonderful New York galleries. The effect is both to broaden and deepen our contemplation of what today’s collectors seek.

WW: Can we expect to see any solo presentations this year or specially curated booths? JB: Noted interior designer Amy Lau joins the fair this year—a first for her and for The Salon! “Atmosphere” is a dream of a living room, which she calls the “new nouveau,” employing creations of great designers such as David Wiseman, Joseph Walsh, Xavier Lust, and Michael Coffey, whose sculptural walnut fireplace will serve as a focal point for the room. Mazzoleni Galleria d’Arte brings an extraordinary selection of Italian art— note a rare Giacomo Balla oil, dated 1925. Joan B Mirviss, one of the world’s great specialists in contemporary Japanese ceramics, curates the work of Sakiyama Takayuki. WW: For the first time in the U.S., Giampiero Bodino will present a jewelry exhibition in The Armory’s Library Room. Can you tell us more about the exhibit and the relation between jewelry and design at The Salon? JB: Unlike other design fairs, The Salon does not admit jewelry galleries. While several of our dealers present small amounts of single designer jewelry, we prefer to highlight one exceptional jewelry exhibition. This year we welcome Milanese designer Giampiero Bodino who will introduce one-of-a-kind pieces created expressly for this exhibition—utilizing elegant metals and colorful stones. The Maison’s style and mission— striving for beauty in design, passion for detail and quality, uniqueness and eclecticism—perfectly fit

The Salon’s element of surprise and novelty. WW: You’ve also partnered with Parley for the Oceans to showcase a Doug Aitken video installation. Can you tell us more about that? JB: Sustainability has always been a subtext for The Salon. Given that we exhibit works of art that have survived from the first millennia alongside pieces that are now 125 years old, that’s inherent. Our partnership with Parley throws a brighter light on what has become a huge conversation. Parley, whose mission is to raise awareness for the beauty and fragility of the oceans, collaborates on projects working tirelessly to end their destruction. WW: How do you see the broad spectrum of furniture, design, and fine art—in both medium and era—as a reflection of collectors’ tastes? JB: Our collector seeks both, understanding that originality lies in the melding of the timeless with the immediate—the third-century South Arabian stele residing on a Gio Ponti table, complementing the Faye Toogood chair by its side, from which to contemplate the John Chamberlain across the room. Our collectors seek the unexpected, and The Salon affords them the opportunity to take risks in a way that no other fair does.

DESTINAZIONE 3D

Non solo resine e polimeri si prestano alle nuove tecnologie di produzione, ma anche i materiali tradizionali. Marmo, ceramica e alluminio sono tra i preferiti

Michael Eden — Alla fiera The Salon Art + Design di New York (9-13/11) la galleria Adrian Sassoon di Londra presenterà ceramiche digitali dell’inglese Michael Eden, tra cui The Wedgwoodn’t Garniture ispirate ad antiche porcellane Wedgwood. thesalonny.com

Stampanti 3D, macchinari CNC (computer numerical control), incisioni al laser stanno migrando dall’industria alla scrivania di casa. Così premoniva Neil Gershenfeld, direttore al Centre for Bits and Atoms del MIT di Boston nel 2005. Le tecnologie produttive di ultima generazione sono oggi madri di oggetti e progetti d’uso quotidiano a tal punto che l’‘Economist’, ha scritto che l’impatto sociale e culturale del fenomeno cambierà il mondo. Parliamo di design generativo, algoritmi e robot come artefici di un paio di sneakers Adidas o un reggiseno di Victoria’s Secret, di un’architettura o un’opera d’arte. Al di là di apocalittici scontri tra macchina e uomo in stile ‘Blade Runner’ – di cui proprio questo mese esce il sequel –, i nuovi maker, artisti, progettisti stanno ricalibrando il proprio talento alla luce delle nuove potenzialità del digitale. I risultati mettono seriamente in dubbio la vecchia idea del minor valore di un’opera che non sia realizzata a mano. Anzi, questa nuova pratica permette, per paradosso, di trovare la giusta formula perché ciascuno abbia il suo prodotto su misura, in breve tempo e con minor scarto di materiale. “Il design non dovrebbe avere uno stile personale, ma inventarne di differenti a seconda di quello che intende comunicare”, sognava Bruno Munari in era analogica. “Quando si parla di innovazione tecnologica si pensa spesso a oggetti non particolarmente belli e dal sapore geek. In realtà, fare innovazione significa in primis ripensare a processi e modalità progettuali, usando in modo creativo ciò che già c’è e servendosi della tecnologia per migliorare e concretizzare le idee”, spiega il team di OpenDot, il fab lab fondato dallo studio milanese Dotdotdot che offre esperienze e macchinari evoluti per produrre, tra le varie cose, supporti personalizzati 54

per bambini disabili o accessori moda in collaborazione con griffe. Bella e utile, dunque, la nuova tecnologia è un invitante richiamo dal futuro. Pensiamo alla possibilità di costruire in poche ore una casa da zero, magari nelle zone colpite da calamità: ci stanno pensando al MIT di Boston e anche gli olandesi DUS Architects, che hanno installato ad Amsterdam un microrifugio stampato in 3D. Immaginiamo la rivoluzione dei canoni estetici classici grazie alla possibilità di dare ai materiali — dai polimeri al cemento — forme prima impossibili. Se la ricerca su nuovi composti è in una fase più embrionale, sono spesso i materiali tradizionali a subire questo trattamento ‘ringiovanente’. “Ho rielaborato tre diversi software di solito utilizzati nel cinema per creare l’effetto dell’increspatura delle onde sul marmo e l’ottone, che sono stati poi forgiati da una macchina CNC”, ci racconta Mathieu Lehanneur dei suoi nuovi arredi ‘Ocean Memories’: seconda tappa di una ricerca sulla lavorazione in digitale iniziata con ‘Liquid Marble’ (ora in mostra nel nostro Elle Decor Grand Hotel, leggete a pag. 72). Non si tratta dunque di fine dell’artigianato ma di un nuovo arts&crafts in cui l’abilità manuale, potremmo dire, è anche nell’utilizzo brillante di un programma al computer, oltre che permanere spesso nella fase di finitura del prodotto. Sono già on-line siti come 3D Warehouse, lanciato da Google, dove è possibile scaricare modelli di vari beni d’uso da realizzare concretamente in casa con la stampante 3D. Non è cosa da tutti i giorni, ma il dibattito sociologico sta già intravedendo in questo diffuso fai-da-te una nuova forma di partecipazione dell’individuo alla costruzione, più che concreta, dell’ambiente. Pronti a disegnare il futuro? —

The Salon Art + Design Show to Light Up Park Avenue Armory in November By Barbara Basbanes Richter

THE SALON ART + DESIGN

The Salon Art + Design will showcase fine and decorative art from an international assortment of exhibitors at its sixth annual show from November 9 through November 13, 2017, at the Park Avenue Armory, where designers will create more than 50 galleries with art in various environments, suggesting that beautiful pieces are more than simple collector's items. Executive Director Jill Bokor recently spoke about the upcoming show and what she hopes visitors will take away from the experience. The Salon premiered in 2012â&#x20AC;&#x201D;what's changed over the years? As fairs do, The Salon has carved an identity over the past half-dozen years. We like to think of the fair as firmly grounded yet open to change. Some things are the same; our galleries are highly international and of the highest caliber. This was a decision made in the context of the New York market; the number of art fairs here is too numerous to count. Until The Salon, there has not been an event that has showcased vintage and contemporary design, the work that collectors and designers seek to furnish their homes and projects. The advantage of our location at The Armory is unsurpassed; galleries of this quality want to be housed in New York's most affluent zip code.

THE SALON ART + DESIGN

What can visitors expect to see when they come to The Salon? Expect to see furniture and design from every movement, country, and genre, starting with the 1880s. From Josef Hoffman to Ettore Sottsass to Zaha Hadid, the great masters of The Aesthetic Movement, Art Deco, mid-century Europe through the last quarter of the 20th century, right up to the architectural designers of the moment will all be presented at the fair. Furniture, lighting, ceramics, and decorative objects in both uncommon and prosaic materials will be on view and accessible to the visitor along with ancient art, great modern masterworks of art, though Chinese contemporary paintings. How is The Salon different from other art shows? One of the ways The Salon differentiates itself is that many of the works on sale are modestly priced in comparison to the high-stakes offerings at most art fairs. Beginning collectors will find material for under $10,000. At the high end are works by great architects and designers at and above the million-dollar level. Simply put, there is a massive amount of diversity of material at The Salon. This configuration of dealers, seen as a whole, rather than discretely, paints a picture of how thoughtful collectors can layer and pair objects, genres, materials, and sensibilities. There's so much texture to this fair from the unmistakably architectural furniture of Zaha Hadid to the playful riff on stuffed animals by The Haas Brothers and the colorful layered chrome of a great John Chamberlain sculpture. The collector who visits to The Salon for the first time will delight in the unexpected. Is there anything else visitors should know before they go? Sanford Smith + Associates has managed all kinds of fairs over the past 35 years. The Salon is the grandchild of Sandy's original Modernism Fair; many have said that Sandy helped to create the category of collectible design.

Jill Bokor Brings Us a Sneak Peak Into this Year's The Salon Art + Design The Salon Art + Design Fair will be returning to the Park Avenue Armory for their sixth installment from November 9-13th. By Staff Writer

NYS: As the Executive Director of The Salon Art + Design, what does a day in your shoes look like a couple of weeks before the show? During? Jill Bokor: The good news is that though always intense, no two days leading up to the fair are ever the same. A lot of the detail work happens in the last month from writing copy to working with sponsors. The best part is that each day we learn more about what our exhibitors are planning to bring to the fair so there's always something to be excited about. Most recently we learned that an elevator by Louis Kahn for the Chicago Stock Exchange will be featured in the booth of Lost City Arts!

NYS: With 32 international galleries showcasing both fine and decorative art, how do you make sure to take it all in? Jill Bokor: (There are actually 56 galleries participating, 32 of them international). We look for the best mix and design the fair so the experience keeps the visitors on their toes. We curate the Salon to ensure that nothing is taken for granted in the way it can be at a classic antiques show or art fair where the aisles look more or less the same. Josef Hoffman furniture and Egon Schiele artworks at Yves Macaux and Richard Nagy live across the aisle from contemporary furniture mid-century lighting at Galerie Kreo. Around the corner, vintage and modern Scandinavian design at Hostler Burrows contrasts wonderfully with American Studio Craft furniture at Moderne. Across the way a booth of classical ancient art, some might say the earliest design, from Ariadne Galleries is juxtaposed by the mid-century French work shown at Demisch Danant. With all this and so much more, the visitor is always on the lookout for the unexpected.

NYS: Is there a gallery or certain pieces you are most excited to see? Jill Bokor: I can't name oneâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;too political and it would be hard to choose in any case! But I can mention a few things I'm in love with the work of Faye Toogood, shown at Friedman Benda. Dominic Harris, shown by Priveekoelletie is an interactive artist and this year he's done a riff on 17th Century Dutch flower paintings that look amazing! 21st Gallery will show a flower infused resin and steel table by Marcel Rusak in which antique sensibility meets contemporary design. Finally, Joan Mirviss shows the work of contemporary Japanese ceramicist Sakiyama Takayuki. These swirling, incised vessels influenced by the rugged shores of the Izu Peninsula, feel like they contain eternity! NYS: How many newcomers will be at this year's Salon and how do they get vetted? Jill Bokor: We're excited to present 14 new galleries including newcomers from Spain and Denmark making this our most international fair to date. The process begins when we determine who will return from prior years then look to see how we can add the most interesting material. Each new gallery submits a proposal detailing what they plan to bring. In the early winter, I visit the new applicants to get a better sense of their aesthetic and how they might fit into the fair. It's always a hard decisionâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;so many great galleries apply. But in the end we do look for material that we haven't seen before. Amongst our new participants are three contemporary galleries-- Galerie BSL, Paris; Etage Projects, Denmark; and Garrido, Spain. For great historic material we're excited to welcome Rossella Colombari from Milan and a home team gallery, Magen H, from New York.

NYS: Is there a certain time period or design style that you believe is highlighted in this year's show? Jill Bokor: We are moving slightly more towards contemporary design. What's so great about that is we can see how the whole continuum of design has evolved. If you look at the Art Deco works at Vallois and the midcentury Scandinavian work at Modernity, you begin to understand how today's designers have mined the best of what came before and then taken the work to new places in both form and material.

NYS: What are some of the leading trends you have noticed? Jill Bokor: We're seeing a lot of interesting metals being used. Visit Garrido Gallery, Gallery All,Negropontes and Cristina Grajales' booths to see how contemporary designers are using metal work to extraordinary effect. They're cool—architectural, not glitzy and can be paired effectively with vintage pieces. NYS: What do you most love about The Salon? Jill Bokor: I'm prejudiced, of course, but I think we have the most amazing roster of galleries who bring their absolutely best material to The Salon. And I love that every year we get to reinvent the fair ever so slightly. That means that the visitor can come without preconceived ideas about what s/he's going to see. There are some fairs that look quite the same from year to year. I like to think that The Salon has something new to offer with each edition from the elegant now classical forms of the 20th century to the whimsical design that's being made today—the classics of the future.

Adriana Friedman of DeLorenzo Gallery on The Salon of Art + Design Adriana Friedman, Director of DeLorenzo Gallery for the past 23 years, gives us an idea of the incredible designs that will be on view at this year's The Salon Art + Design. By Staff Writer

ELIZABETH GAROUSTE (b. 1949) AND MATTIA BONETTI (b. 1952), 1992 A single commission pair of club chairs in lacquered wood with bronze feet, upholstered in orange silk velour. The chairs are accompanied by a photocopy of a drawing of this design. The drawing is signed "BG" in a square and dated January 1992 Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Blome ~ Courtesy of Delorenzo Gallery & Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Blome.

NYS: Tell us about Delorenzo Gallery! Adriana Friedman:DeLorenzo Gallery has been in business since 1981, specializing in the top designers of 20th Century Decorative Arts. We cater to collectors, museums and institutions worldwide who rely on our thirty-six year expertise, curatorial excellence and ability to forsee and create markets by being innovative in the design world. NYS: What are you going to be showcasing at The Salon Art + Design this year?

https://www.newyorkspaces.com/article/Adriana-Friedman-of-DeLorenzo-Gallery-on-The-Salon-of-Art-Design20171011

Adriana Friedman: This year, I am concentrating on bold and powerful pieces that reflect the best of each artist. I will not only be offering furniture and objects, but sculptures and fountains.

Adriana Friedman.

NYS: We are so excited to hear you will bring works by Mattia Bonetti there. Can you give us a hint as to what you will bring? Adriana Friedman: We will be offering a single commission settee with a pair of chairs by Garouste and Bonetti, along with their "Havana" cabinet, the only one known in black lacquer with rose colored interior. We will offer a single commission cabinet by Judy McKie and a single commission console mirror by Albert Paley. We will have the Guy Lartigue 87 1/2" sculpture, "Mademoiselle de Mai," along with other Lartigue fountains. We will feature a Laurent Chauvat ceiling fixture, one of four (Chauvat is currently having a solo exhibition of his work in Paris at Galerie ForĂŠt Verte). We will offer a yellow Studio Nucleo table in resin that will add color and light, as well as Sam Amoia's famous drum in bronze. I will also be adding a few more surprises. NYS: As the design director of the gallery for 23 years, what have you seen people gravitate towards in the last year or two?

https://www.newyorkspaces.com/article/Adriana-Friedman-of-DeLorenzo-Gallery-on-The-Salon-of-Art-Design20171011

Adriana Friedman: The market and the taste is very sporadic. I have clients who still gravitate towards the more traditional style but want to understand the contemporary and incorporate it with their existing collection. I also have very young collectors, most recently from the music industry, who are gravitating towards Arts and Crafts and Tiffany. The consistency is that there is no consistency. We are fortunate that we are able to cater to all types of tastes and provide pieces and a platform where collectors, young and old, can learn and gain from our expertise and eye. NYS: What galleries are you most excited to see yourself? Adriana Friedman: I am always excited to view every single booth, since I know what it entails to be an exhibitor. It is months of preparation and editing and re-editing. I am always inspired and appreciate it all. NYS: Tell us about what you believe makes The Salon so special? Adriana Friedman: What makes the "Salon" so special is the varied exhibitors that are gathered under one roof, showcasing strong pieces that represent the culmination of what Art and Design represents at this point in time. Collectors and curators fly in from all over the world to visit and buy. This will be our fourth year exhibiting. I have enjoyed exhibiting with other leading galleries who are at the top of their field. The "Salon" has always aimed for and achieved excellence in every fair, as evidenced by the fact that it is one of the most highly attended fairs in the world. I know they have a long wait list of galleries/exhibitors looking to join the roster next year or the year after or the one after that. One of the things I appreciate the most, outside of curating the booth and, of course, selling, is the many architectural/design students who visit the fair. It gives them a place where they can see different aspects of the market and can be inspired and fine tune their eye and craft. NYS: What item or items are you most excited to showcase? Adriana Friedman: Very difficult to pick from this selection since I've had a few of these in my personal collection. For an outdoor sculpture, the Guy Lartique 87 1/2"sculpture, " Mademoiselle de Mai." The Judy McKie chest is one of my favorite pieces. At first glance, the color draws one in but, on further study, one can see the genius of the artist. It is meticulously designed and crafted. It is a perfect puzzle where each stacked drawer becomes smaller and smaller, and the diamond carvings become a play in the wooden design. The drawers open like silk with ebony pulls. This is the type of construction and attention to detail that I've only seen in the top French Deco pieces. The "Havana" cabinet is fun, light and bold, from the black lacquer exterior to the rose colored interior. The single commission Garouste and Bonetti settee and chairs in black lacquer and gold are strong, powerful and light.

Дорогие предметы в Нью-Йорке: The Salon Art+Design By Yegor Petrov

Нью-Йорк становится все более приягательным местом для дилеров, предлагающих коллекционный дизайн. В мае авторские стулья и столы везут на Collective Design, а исторические объекты демонстрируют галереи TEFAF New York. В ноябре календарь украшает ярмарка The Salon Art+Design. Мероприятие проводят в Park Avenue Armory, на площадке с богатейшей историей. Тут проходили культовые выставки американского и европейского искусства, кипели страсти, совершались знаменитые продажи. В этом году на шестую сессию The Salon Art+Design соберутся 56 галерей из 11 стран: большинство из них продают знаменитые дизайнерские объекты ХХ века и суперсовременный дизайн, есть также галереи, специализирующиеся на декоративно-прикладном искусстве, живописи и фотографии.

Формат и предложение похожи на европейскую выставку PAD, проходящую весной в Париже, осенью в Лондоне, и это неслучайно: изначально The Art Salon Art+Design проходила как американская версия PAD, но потом сменила организаторов и название. Пока анонсированное предложение галерей выглядит, как ряд уже известных коллекций и вещей, прекрасных, интересных, но хорошо знакомых.

Вазы Romanesco I и II, диз. М. Иден. Adrian Sassoon.

Премьеры готовы устроить только американские дилеры, их большинство — 22 галереи из 56, почти половина. На втором месте Франция, в Нью-Йорк приедут 12 известных галерей, в том числе Galerie Berès, Galerie BSL, Galerie Chastel-Maréchal, Galerie du Passage, Galerie Kreo, Galerie Maria Wettergren, Galerie Negropontes. Помимо 7 галерей из Великобритании (Adrian Sassoon, David Gill Gallery, Gallery FUMI, Michael Goedhuis, Richard Nagy Ltd., Sarah Myerscough Gallery, Yves Macaux) ожидается известная кельнская ammann // gallery, стокгольмская Modernity и четыре первоклассных дилера из Бельгии David Lévy & Associés, Galerie Le Beau, Galerie Marc Heiremans, Pierre Marie Giraud.

Over 50 galleries are exhibiting at this year's fair, including David Gill Gallery, which will present Zaha Hadid's Liquid Glacial Table

The Salon Art + Design has announced that this year, its sixth edition, will include 56 galleries from 11 countries â&#x20AC;&#x201C; including the US, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Monaco, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and the UK.

Galerie Negropontes Unveils Its 2017 ‘Synthesis’ Collection By Staff Writer

Console_Phi ©Adrien Millot (Courtesy: Galerie Negropontes)

Galerie Negropontes recently unveiled its “Synthesis” collection, which will be on display at the upcoming Salon Art + Design fair in New York. Designer Hervé Langlais has used exceptional and precious material to create this brand new collection, which has a sculptural feel. The “Gaia” console and “Satellite” pedestal tables feature charred wood and polished brass. Royal ebony is used for the Plumage cabinet, which bears resemblance to ink drawings from India. The interiors of the cabinet are designed as a contrast with lacquered drawers in deep red. The palm and lacquer frame of the “Kaleidoscope” mirror takes inspiration from the Art Deco movement while its geometric shape evokes Mondrian. The inbuilt champagne cooler in the “Constellation” coffee table recalls the secret cabinets of the seventeenth century. The gallery collaborates with artists and designers, especially those who are associated with the Decorative Arts. For this collection, Hervé Langlais gets together with Perrin & Perrin and Eric de Dormäel to create exceptional design works such as glasswork in a brass setting, or graphic networks proliferating as sculptures – echoing the gallery’s vision to modernize Decorative Arts. At the upcoming fair, the gallery will also present photographer Dan Er. Grigorescu’s prints from the 1960s. Galerie Negropontes is among the 55 galleries invited by the Salon Art + Design, which will be held in November in New York.

AMY LAU BREAKS THE MOLD AT SALON ART + DESIGN Taylor Barker The SALON ART + DESIGN fair is returning to New York City from November 9 to 13, this time with a new type of exhibitor on its roster: Amy Lau will be the first interior designer to exhibit at the fair. Her installation, ATMOSPHERE BY AMY LAU, features a complete living room titled “The New Nouveau.”

A rendering of Amy Lau's exhibition space

“I think for me it was the natural thing to happen. Most of my clients tend to be art and design collectors, and they are looking for me to create these interiors,” Lau says. For her room design, Lau, who has a background in fine and decorative arts, wanted to capture the entirety of art nouveau, from its beginnings to contemporary design, not just one or two decades. “It’s really exciting, not only that an interior designer is doing a fair, it’s that it’s a curated show,” Lau explains. “Normally an exhibitor would show from one era, not 120 years. I think it is establishing a new genre by having all of these designers included.”

https://www.editoratlarge.com/articles/amy-lau-breaks-the-mold-at-salon-art-design

Amy Lau

When curating the show, Lau looked to designers from the 1940s, ’50s and ’60s who were working in art nouveau, and then sought out contemporary designers for new art nouveau pieces. The agate coffee table by BRENDA HOUSTON, a ginkgo-leaf chandelier by ROSIE LI STUDIO, and the focal point of the space, a hand-carved walnut fireplace by MICHAEL COFFEY, were some of the items commissioned specifically for the fair. While a 1900s vitrine from Émile Gallé, a Louis Majorelle side table and a TIFFANY STUDIOS Cypriote vase from 1899 are among some of the other pieces that were selected to complete the design. For the walls of the room, Lau worked with Brooklyn-based CALICO WALLPAPER on the company’s first hand-painted panels. Lau notes that it is a different experience seeing these museum-quality furnishings in a complete room, as they would naturally be seen, as opposed to seeing a single chair on a stand at the museum. “[At a museum] we don’t see how it can be incorporated into our life,” she says. Atmosphere by Amy Lau will be on show at the PARK AVENUE ARMORY from November 9 to 13.

the salon art + design By Staff Writer

The Salon Art + Design Avenue Armory, New York November 9-13 2017 Every November The Salon Art + Design welcomes the world’s finest international galleries exhibiting historical, modern and contemporary furniture, groundbreaking design and late 19th through 21st century art. Visitors will find designs by the great 20th century masters, as well as creative works by today’s most innovative young artists. Look for Art Deco, Mid Century Modern from America, France, Italy, and Scandinavia paired with the work today’s emerging designers.

The Salon’s inclusivity and willingness to consider both fine and decorative art in the context of contemporary life is predicated on the intent of designers and collectors to create environments rather than simply amass objects.

Image courtesy of The Salon Art + Design

The Salon is the only international fair of this caliber to combine styles, genres, and periods cutting a universal and timeless swath. Other fairs allow art, but no design or conversely design without art. The willingness to consider all material – historic to contemporary – is based on the belief that today’s designers and collectors insist on a vibrant mix – as long as the quality is impeccable.

Image courtesy of The Salon Art + Design

56 galleries from eleven countries exhibit a dazzling array of material. Starting with antiquities, the historic root of design, skipping centuries into early modernist Nouveau, Deco, and International mid-century furniture from Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Scandinavia. Provocatively juxtaposed by 20th century and contemporary lighting, glass, and ceramics are works of the late 20th century by the spectacular creations of today’s most masterful young designers. Woven in throughout are blue chip European, American, and Chinese works of art. The Salon is a vetted fair.

An opening night gala preview by invitation only, a vernissage party soon after. Talks with designers, sipping coffee in the on-site café, and browsing the bookstore. The Salon will have so much to offer. With its immense 55,000-square-foot Wade Thompson Drill Hall – modeled after 19th-century European train stations – and historic rooms designed by leading period designers Louis Comfort Tiffany and the Herter Brothers, the Armory offers an amazing space to view cutting edge art + design.

All the Queens Houses Reception and Discussion All the Queens Houses is a photographic survey by architect and artist Rafael Herrin-Ferri of the qualities of the boroughâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attached, semi-detached, and detached houses and small apartment buildings. The exhibition, which is on view Friday afternoons from October 20 to December 15 at the Architectural League of New York (594 Broadway, Ste. 607), explores the themes of identity, differentiation, and adaptation in Queens, which is commonly regarded as the most ethnically and linguistically diverse part of New York. To celebrate the installation, the Architectural League will host a reception and discussion on November 9, followed by a conversation between Herrin-Ferri and urbanist Joseph Heathcott, on the changing residential landscape of Queens. Admission is free.

Майкл Эден — британский дизайнер. Соединяет ремесло и цифровые технологии. Вазы Romanesco — уникат.

I и II придуманы как парафраз старинного увлечения. В декоративно-прикладном искусстве стиля рококо в 1760-х годах на молодом тогда предприятии Wedgwood появилась мода создавать муляжи фруктов и овощей. В оригинальной форме своих ваз Майкл Эден поженил ботанику и математику. Нижние листья сделаны при помощи фотогеометрии: объект фотографируется под разными углами, потом все эти изображения совмещаются в единый 3D-файл, с которого может быть напечатана трехмерная модель.

FOTOGRAFIA

A PARIGI CON KARL LAGERFELD

È arrivata alla sua 21ª edizione e si conferma la fiera dedicata alla fotografia più importante d’Europa, dove è possibile comprare opere di grandi autori e di giovani promettenti. Quest’anno Paris Photo, che si svolge sotto le volte di cristallo e acciaio del Grand Palais di Parigi, sceglie come ospite d’onore Karl Lagerfeld. Lo stilista, che è anche fotografo, erudito e appassionato collezionista, ha elaborato un percorso e un libro, pubblicato da Steidl, dove raccoglie le sue foto e quelle che preferisce tra le opere in esposizione. Gli autori, che vanno da Horst P. Horst a Zanele Muholi, da Richard Avedon a Irving Penn, sono presentati da 151 gallerie, provenienti da 30 Paesi, e ci sono anche più di 30 tra editori e librai antiquari dai quali trovare il volume prezioso ed esaurito da tempo. Paris Photo si conferma un’occasione per conoscere meglio il mondo della fotografia, attraverso mostre, premi, tavole rotonde e incontri con gli autori. E, quest’anno, sarà anche un modo originale per capire l’universo estetico di Lagerfeld. (Laura Incardona)

THE VICISSITUDES OF A LEONARDO DA VINCI The Salvator Mundi for sale at Christie’s New York on 15 November has suffered over its 500-year history. Far left: in 1913, with overpainting; left, the painting today, after cleaning and retouching of areas of paint loss

Hackers are using an email scam to intercept payments between galleries, collectors and others LONDON. Hackers are stealing large sums of money from art galleries and their clients using a straightforward email deception. The Art Newspaper has so far identified nine galleries or individuals targeted by this scam. They include Hauser & Wirth, the Londonbased dealers Simon Lee, Thomas Dane, Rosenfeld Porcini and Laura Bartlett and, in the US, Tony Karman, the president of Expo Chicago. “We know a number of galleries that have been affected. The sums lost by them or their clients range from £10,000 to £1m,” says the insurance broker Adam Prideaux of Hallett Independent. “I suspect the problem is a lot worse than we imagine.”

How it works The fraud is relatively simple. Criminals hack into an art dealer’s email account and monitor incoming and outgoing correspondence. When the gallery sends a PDF invoice to a client via email following a sale, the conversation is hijacked. Posing as the gallery, hackers send a duplicate, fraudulent invoice from the same gallery email address, with an accompanying message instructing the client to disregard the first invoice and instead wire payment to the account listed in the fraudulent document. Once money has been transferred to the criminals’ account, the hackers move the money to avoid detection and then disappear. The same technique is used to intercept payments made by galleries to their artists and others. Because the hackers gain access to the gallery’s email contacts, the scam can spread quickly, with fraudulent emails appearing to come from known sources.

The victims This summer, the London-based dealer Laura Bartlett sold a group of works to a US collector. “It was quite a

p001,012_TAN1_News Cover Cyber, Brazil REJIG US.indd 1

high-value sale for me,” she says. The transaction was negotiated entirely by email and when it was finalised, Bartlett sent the buyer an invoice via email, as she has sent all her invoices for the past 12 years. Her client received this but soon afterwards, Bartlett’s emails were intercepted. “Somebody sent out another email saying: ‘Ignore my previous invoice. I sent you old bank details; please use this invoice instead.’” The client duly wired the money to the hackers instead of to Bartlett. “I kept checking my account to see if the money had arrived and sending more and more emails to my client to ask where the funds were,” she says. Her client responded to these emails, but “in retrospect, I realise that the tone of his emails had completely changed”, Bartlett says. What she and her client did not know at the time was that the hackers were now controlling

“Art dealers and their clients will wire $1m after a single conversation” all correspondence between them while impersonating them both. The hackers responded to Bartlett’s queries about the payment with reassurances that “everything was fine and that the delay in receiving payment was being looked into”. It was only when Bartlett called the client a week later that they both realised what had happened. They reported the theft to the Action Fraud team at the Metropolitan Police in London but have no information about the ongoing investigation. (A spokesman for Action Fraud told The Art Newspaper that Bartlett and her client’s “reports have been reviewed and have been

SEE PAGE 8  disseminated to the Metropolitan Police service for investigation”.) Bartlett’s client has not recovered his money and is unlikely to do so. “His bank told him that it was not able to recompense him,” Bartlett says. In cases such as these, “the bank has not made an error for which it necessarily has to take responsibility”, says Chris Bentley, the director of underwriting at AXA Art Northern Europe, Middle East and Asia Pacific. Some art dealers believe that banks should carry out more detailed checks on new clients before they are allowed to open accounts. Ian Rosenfeld of Rosenfeld Porcini in London has been trying to recover money stolen from one of his gallery’s clients for 18 months. As in Bartlett’s case, the theft occurred after criminals intercepted an email invoice sent to a client following the sale of a work. “Around seven or eight hours after we had sent our invoice, the buyers got another email saying that the invoice we had sent out was in the wrong currency and that they should make payment to a different account,” Rosenfeld explains. Once again, the collectors wired the funds to an account set up by fraudsters. “We’re still in discussion with the bank a year and a half later, trying to recover the money; they have been completely useless,” Rosenfeld says.

How arms sales helped to pay for Louvre Abu Dhabi, opening on 11 November US and UK payments into the arms-export Offset Program have enabled this Franco-Emirati project LONDON. Although the total cost of the new Louvre Abu Dhabi, designed by the French architect Jean Nouvel, has not been disclosed, the money for it derives partly from investments made in Abu Dhabi by countries that have sold it arms, such as the UK and the US, the latter being by far the largest exporter of arms to the emirate. The story begins in 1992, when Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the founding father of the United Arab Emirates, set up the Offset Program Bureau (OPB) to administer the money that foreign governments are obliged to invest in the country when they sell it weapons, a practice that is common in the international defence industry. Sheikh Zayed transferred administration of the OPB to his

son, Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, now the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and the head of its armed forces. This enabled Sheikh Mohammed to set up in 2002 the Mubadala investment fund, which has a current asset value of $125bn and is investing heavily in the cultural infrastructure of Abu Dhabi. As well as paying for Louvre Abu Dhabi, it has financed the Sorbonne Abu Dhabi and New York University Abu Dhabi. The financial information is published in a new book by the French author Alexandre Kazerouni.

INTERNATIONAL FAIRS

Abu Dhabi Art set to benefit from Louvre opening FAIRS ABU DHABI. All eyes are on Abu Dhabi this month as the opening on 11 November of the longawaited reincarnation of the Louvre provides a major boost to the Emirates’ evolving art scene. Hoping to directly benefit from the influx of art-world VIPs is Abu Dhabi Art fair. “We will definitely have more international visitors as a result,” says the fair’s new director, Dyala Nusseibeh. “Abu Dhabi Art was, in a way, created nine years ago in anticipation of the Louvre opening.” Growing Abu Dhabi’s local and international arts audience has been a key objective of the fair and the increase in participating galleries—48, up from 35 last year— suggests some success, as does the addition of notable international galleries such as Sprüth Magers. Leila Heller, whose gallery has taken part in Abu Dhabi Art since its inception, has booked a larger

“Louvre Abu Dhabi will inspire the art scene in the UAE” in 1985. Edward Gibbs, Sotheby’s chairman and head of department, Middle East and India, says its “commitment is based on an increase of 76% in the number of participants from the Middle East in our global sales, particularly

from the United Arab Emirates [UAE], where participation grew by 39% from 2015 to 2016”. Meanwhile, Christie’s has moved its autumn sale of Modern Middle Eastern art to London, suggesting a slight retreat from the country, although the auction house says it is part of a strategy to internationalise the market for art from the region. It remains to be seen whether the UAE’s art market will suffer from the continued downturn in its predominantly oil-focused economy or whether the “Louvre effect” will buck the trend, but local galleries are optimistic. “Louvre Abu Dhabi will inspire the burgeoning art scene and will help solidify [the country] in becoming an art hub,” Heller says.

AUCTION • MELBOURNE NOV. 29, 2017

LONDON. For Norman Kurland, the well-known American film and television agent, deciding what to do with his collection of art dating from China’s Six Dynasties period (220-581AD) has been a “bittersweet” process. “I thought for years—do I give it to my university museum, do I give it someplace else, do I sell it?” He even considered burying the whole lot with him when he went. In the end, he entrusted the collection to Giuseppe Eskenazi, the renowned Mayfair dealer who had sold him most of the works in the first place. Eskenazi will offer 38 objects from Kurland’s collection in an exhibition as part of Asian Art in London (AAL), a diverse dealer-led initiative of concurrent exhibitions, auctions and educational events. Kurland’s collection includes a range of materials—stone sculptures, earthenware figures, gilt-bronze metalwork and glazed ceramics—but is mainly limited to works from the fifth and sixth centuries. Highlights include rare examples of Buddhist sculpture from imperial cave temples such as Yungang and Gongxian. Prices range from five to seven figures. Other highlights of AAL, this year dubbed East Meets West, include an exhibition of Pahari paintings from the Eva and Konrad Seitz collection at Francesca Galloway, and a show focused on trade routes and export wares such as brasswork from Benin and Sinhalese ivory furniture at Jorge Welsh Works of Art. To celebrate AAL’s 20 years, a gala party will be held on 9 November in the newly reopened Joseph E. Hotung Gallery at the British Museum. Meanwhile, in keeping with the market’s shift towards newer art, the AAL annual lecture at Sotheby’s Institute of Art on 2 November asks whether London can become a global hub for Modern and contemporary Asian art.

NEW YORK. The Salon Art + Design fair returns to the Park Avenue Armory for its sixth year this month. Of the roughly 56 exhibitors, more than half come from outside the US, including first-timers Galleria Rossella Colombari (Italy), Garrido Gallery (Spain), and Etage Projects (Denmark). Mixing cutting-edge furnishings and design objects with art from antiquity to the present, the fair is known for its broad approach. “There’s been this incredible transition in how people think about collecting,” says Jill Bokor, the executive director, “going from extremely vertical collecting to much more horizontal.” In her opinion, buyers are no longer looking for individual objects, but “intriguing combinations of things”. Bokor has accordingly invited for the first time an interior designer, Amy Lau, to present a section mixing art and design of all ages. It will include, for example, an iridescent Tiffany Studios Cypriote vase (around 1899) opposite a rainbow ombré glass chair (2017) by German Ermics. “The brief is really to try to present this material as people would see it in a home,” Bokor says. When it works, the room-set approach can really pay off: according to Bokor, two years ago, somebody bought a whole stand. Sarah P.

ale la pena aprovechar noviembre para andar por cada ciudad posible. Este mes es el más homogéneo en espíritu y color de todo el año. Un hemisferio se entinta de rojo-despedida, como umbral del invierno; el otro, se sacude con el rojo-jolgorio del otoño, y en todas partes el viento te ensarta como saeta empapada de aromas de cambio. Justo así tengo la suerte de llegar desde Puerto Madero, en Buenos Aires, a Miami, para encontrar a alguien más que sabe hacer que fluyan todas las transiciones: Ximena Caminos. La Directora Creativa del Grupo Faena eleva estéticamente a la categoría de proyecto cultural lo que sin ella y su otra sólida mitad empresarial, Alan Faena, sería un exitoso proyecto más de bienes raíces. “Hablar de Faena es referirse a la función del arte en general. El arte ha sido el mejor aliado de todos los movimientos socioculturales de la humanidad, como una especie de conjuro universal”, dice. “Se trata de un proyecto cultural que, además del arte, incluye muchas más cosas, como la gastronomía, por ejemplo. Mi background antes de trabajar con Alan, incluye mi formación en cultura y arte en iniciativas sin fines de lucro. Él aportó una brillante mente de negocios “HABLAR DE FAENA y funcionó de manera genial. De ES REFERIRSE A un emprendimiento de uso mixto, LA FUNCIÓN DEL ARTE EN GENERAL”, hicimos un distrito cultural a gran REVELA XIMENA CAMINOS. escala”, añade Caminos. Se refiere a su primer distrito, en Puerto Madero, al que siguió Miami. “Así tendemos un puente cultural entre Sur y Norte en América que están tan disociados. El arte ha sido para mí una herramienta de activismo social, y eso se refleja en Faena”, acuña. Un activismo social que está, ciertamente, en el ADN de ella... “Siempre he estado en sintonía con lo que mejore la vida de la gente y no creo en quedarme callada”, confiesa. Eso lo evidencia la manera en que fluye su conversación.

esultaría Faena en una “gentrificación”? “No es así para nosotros. Claro que hay residencias millonarias, pero también hay una labor de llevar el arte a todos en nuestras instituciones culturales, que se integran a los proyectos. Faena Art, mi fundación, cuida mucho eso y trabaja con las comunidades”, aclara. Hablamos de tantos temas con esta mujer que el espacio nos estrangula. “También cuidamos el medio ambiente. En lo personal abrazo esa causa”,

enfatiza. Conversamos sobre el narcisismo de esta era: “La educación es el antídoto. Los niños, en la medida en que los eduquemos bien, salvarán el futuro. Me conecto con la tribu que busca la solución”, afirma. Reitera que Faena se alinea con la idea de mejorar la sociedad a través de la cultura y, ¿la moda? “Me encanta y, mucho más, cuando es vehículo para buenas iniciativas que mejoran la sociedad y protegen el planeta”. Lo dicho, Ximena es una guerrera que reta los límites, como lo hace noviembre. —José Forteza

Quelle est la dernière exposition qui vous a séduite!? Christian Dior aux Arts décoratifs. En général, je n’aime pas les expositions de mode, cela fait «"vieilles fripes"».

Fine Arts Paris launches this month, filling the gap left by Paris Tableau. The French capital also welcomes Paris Photo, while Austria hosts Art & Antique Hofburg and Vienna Art Week

rom the organisers of the successful Salon du Dessin comes a new fair, Fine Arts Paris, held at the Palais Brongniart from 8–12 November and filling the gap left by Paris Tableau. Hoping to emulate the Salon’s friendly spirit, the first edition of the fair – which focuses on drawing, painting and sculpture – brings together 34 dealers (including half from overseas) offering a wide variety of works from the Renaissance to the present day. According to the organisers, ‘diversity and quality are the hallmarks of this new fair’, and an emphasis is placed on displaying the works of younger dealers at lower price points alongside higher-end pieces offered by more established galleries. There is a wide range of painting on offer, including a selection of fine landscapes. 94

Arnoldi-Livie brings the moody Sand pit in Fontainebleau forest, dated to around 1858, by the French painter Alexandre-Gabriel Decamps, while Renoir’s more dreamy, pastel-coloured Landscape at Cagnes (c. 1905) is on show at Bailly Gallery. Suburban View, an 1887 work by the somewhat overlooked PostImpressionist Claude-Émile Schuffenecker, known for his friendship with Gauguin, can be found at Talabardon & Gautier. A more modern work, the untitled watercolour and ink of around 1950 by Zao Wou-Ki, comes courtesy of Aktis Gallery. Among the religious paintings, don’t miss Jacques Stella at Didier Aaron and Judith with the Head of Holofernes by the baroque painter Pedro Núñez del Valle at Porcini. Ahead of the Louvre’s Delacroix exhibition next year, be

sure to find the Romantic painter’s take on the myth of Hercules Taking the Belt of Hippolyte, Queen of the Amazons, at Galerie de Bayser. Portraiture is also well represented. Works by Giovanni Battista Caracciolo, Jusepe de Ribera and Franz von Stuck are at the stands of Artur Ramon Art, Galerie Canesso, and Paolo Antonacci respectively, while De Jonckheere impresses with a portrait-diptych of a bourgeois couple by the German Renaissance painter Bartholomeus Bruyn the Elder – the most celebrated painter in Cologne in the first half of the 16th century (Fig. 1). Among the modern works on show at Zurich-based Art Cuéllar-Nathan is Maternity (1954), an unusual, dynamic bronze by Baltasar Lobo, a Spanish artist best known for his works depicting mother and child.

AROUND THE GALLERIES

sculpture can be found at Benjamin Proust, who presents the painted terracotta Dragon of the Apocalypse, dated to the first half of the 16th century (Fig. 2).

ARTE E DESIGN DI SCENA A NEW YORK Al The Salon, kermesse eclettica dedicata alle gallerie più importanti del mondo, dove la presenza italiana spicca con proposte al top, tra vintage e contemporaneo By Micaela Zucconi

Una fiera che accoglie arte e design, fondata sulla convinzione che designer e collezionisti, oggi più che mai, acquistano oggetti non per collezionarli, ma soprattutto per creare degli ambienti. La sesta edizione di The Salon Art + Design, curato da Sanford Smith + Associates, accoglie, dal 9 al 13 novembre, un florilegio di gallerie al top, specializzate in interior contemporaneo, moderno e d’epoca, Art déco e arte di fine ’800 e del ’900. Dai grandi maestri ai più innovativi artisti e giovani designer di oggi, americani, europei e scandinavi. Pur non essendo l’unica del genere nel panorama delle fiere, The Salon – come viene abbreviata dagli addetti ai lavori – deve il suo successo all’originalità della formula e all’altissima qualità delle proposte, al mix di stili, generi e periodi dal respiro internazionale. «La manifestazione attuale, organizzata insieme al Syndacat National des Antiquaires di Parigi, è erede della precedente Modernism, sempre curata da Sanford Smith, ispirata all’omonima rivista di David Rago e John Sollo, vero e proprio cult della cultura di interior design. The Salon è vincente per l’accurata selezione di galleristi con opere di alto rango, presentate in eleganti ambientazioni. Proposte di arredo che dettano tendenze », spiega Rossella Colombari della Galleria Colombari. Tra le altre gallerie italiane presenti, Giustini Stagetti Galleria O. Roma, Mazzoleni di Londra e Milano, Nilufar, di Milano. Tra gli highlights di questa edizione opere di Giacomo Balla, Egon Schiele e Yayoi Kusama, un tavolo di Zaha Hadid, uno specchio-totem, omaggio a Brancusi, di Hervé Langlais, dei rari pezzi di Gio Ponti, Carlo Zen e Franco Albini, un tavolino di Hella Jongerius. http://style.corriere.it/top-class/the-salon-art-design-new-york/?refresh_ce-cp

Per approfondire temi di design e tendenze si possono prenotare delle visite guidate con esperti, gestite da Artsy. Vale la pena anche accennare alla sede che ospita l’evento. The Armory completato nel 1881, fu costruito dal prestigioso Seventh Regiment della Guardia Nationale. All’edificio, soprattutto nelle Reception Rooms al primo piano e nelle Company Rooms al secondo, lavorarono i più grandi e famosi designer e artisti dell’American Aesthetic Movement, come Louis Comfort Tiffany, Stanford White, Herter Brothers, Pottier & Stymus. La maestosa entrata, i corridoi, lo scalone e l’immensa Wade Thompson Drill Hall – considerata un monumento nella storia dell’ingegneria americana e dove è ambientata la fiera – sono invece opera di Charles W. Clinton, architetto e veterano del reggimento. Dal 2007 è in corso un progetto di restauro e rinnovamento, a cura dello studio di architettura Herzog & De Meuron, che trasformerà l’Armory in un nuovo tipo di istituzione culturale votata alla creazione e presentazione di arte visiva, installazioni e performance, che necessita grandi spazi non convenzionali.

The Salon Art + Design has a different take on the art fair experience. Rather than focusing on a single element (art, objects, furniture, etc.) it blends various disciplines and creators into a seamless whole. With general knowledge of design becoming part of everyday surroundings, the show displays collections that blend multiple centuries of design with cutting edge materials — exactly the way we live now. Visit this exciting show to get new ideas for your home or just to enjoy beautiful objects and designs.

17 MUST-SEE OBJECTS AT THE SALON ART & DESIGN FAIR An impressive global roster of galleries will display their best offerings — ranging from antiquities to contemporary pieces — at the annual New York fair. By Cara Greenberg

In its sixth edition, running from November 9 through 13 at New York’s Park Avenue Armory, the Salon Art + Design is more international, more luxurious and more contemporary than ever. Look for first-time exhibitors from Paris, Copenhagen and Madrid to bring specially commissioned new works of art and design. They’ll join some 50 other top-drawer galleries from 11 countries offering decorative and fine arts dating from antiquity to just this minute. This year, 1stdibs is pleased to be the official online partner of the salon. As such, we’re hosting a shopping portal so that those who visited the fair (or wish they could have) can find and purchase the incredible items on display.

https://www.1stdibs.com/introspective-magazine/17-must-see-objects-at-the-salon-art-and-design-fair/

“What we like best about the fair is its astonishing variety,” says Jill Bokor, the salon’s executive director. “You could start with a twenty-four-thousand-year-old polychrome head from Egypt and set it on a concrete table from the 1980s lit by a contemporary Gino Sarfatti chandelier. That’s the reason so many collectors and designers populate the salon: its unparalleled depth, breadth and geographic reach.” Here, we’ve zeroed in on 17 of the dizzyingly diverse offerings to whet your appetite for a fuller, in-person viewing. Maison Gerard

There can be no finer Art Deco provenance than that of this presentation console, made in the 1920s by legendary Parisian designers Süe et Mare for the equally legendary fashion designer Jean Patou. “It is one of two created for Patou’s maison de couture, with gorgeous original gilding,” says Benoist Drut, of Manhattan’s Maison Gerard, who coveted the piece for years before acquiring it recently. The gallery will make the curvaceous console a focal point of its lavish booth at the Salon. Photo courtesy of Maison Gerard David Gill Gallery

Multidisciplinary artist Michele Oka Doner, whose oeuvre ranges from jewelry and video to one of the world’s largest pieces of public art (a mile-and-a-half-long stretch of terrazzo flooring at Miami International Airport embedded with bronze sea-creature designs and mother-of-pearl), created this one-of-a-kind castbronze candelabra in 2007 to celebrate the importance of fire in human culture. Look for Burning Bush at the booth of London’s David Gill Gallery, among other works of international contemporary design. Photo courtesy of David Gill Gallery Adrian Sassoon Gallery

Josiah Wedgwood was at the forefront of the Industrial Revolution. British artist Michael Eden is at the forefront of today’s 3D-printing revolution. Eden’s witty high-tech takes on classic Wedgwood vases, featuring images from TV and movies, are fabricated from a fine-quality nylon material using a computerized process called additive layer manufacturing. The works inhabit “an exciting gray area between craft, design, art and technology,” the artist has said. London’s Adrian Sassoon Gallery is bringing them to the Salon.

Resplendent with diamonds, emeralds and sapphires and rich in historical resonance, the Rosa dei Venti from Maison Giampiero Bodino can be worn as a necklace — composed of all five crosses or fewer, on a short or long chain — or as a group of brooches. Bodino, a master Milanese craftsman, created this dazzling piece in memory of an icon he saw as a child in the San Gennaro cathedral in Naples. Bodino’s pieces will have their own spectacular setting in the armory’s library, a rare example of a fully extant Louis Comfort Tiffany–designed interior. Photo courtesy of Maison Giampiero Bodino Ariadne Galleries

You’ll find this carved alabaster face, part of a two-millennium-old stela made on the Arabian peninsula, at the booth of Ariadne Galleries, New York- and London-based dealers in antiquities. It’s the product of “a thriving kingdom that had contact with Greek, Roman and Persian art,” says Greg Demirjian, a gallery owner. “Collectors of modern and contemporary art connect with its stylized aesthetic.” Photo courtesy of Ariadne Galleries Galerie Negropontes

This sleek tower of charred wood and polished brass leaf, created in 2014 by French architect Hervé Langlais, exemplifies the precision and purity of line for which he is known. The seven-foot-tall Heaven and Earth mirror is “a tribute to Brancusi,” says Sophie Negropontes, owner of Paris’s Galerie Negropontes, which will be unveiling pieces from its latest limited-edition collection, Synthesis, at the Salon. “It is like a tree trunk with bright leaves looking up into the sky.” Photo courtesy of Galerie Negropontes Joan Mirviss

Join major museums in collecting Sakiyama Takayuki’s hand-carved ceramic vessels, their swirly forms and sparkling glazes inspired by the movement of waves and the patterns on the sand beaches beneath the artist’s coastal residence on Japan’s Izu Peninsula. “Their simple beauty has been captivating collectors and curators for two decades,” says Manhattan-based Joan Mirviss, a longtime dealer in contemporary Japanese ceramics.

Judy Kensley McKie’s 2006 bronze chair in the form of a dog with a raised, wagging tail — number 10 in an edition of 12 — is sure to be a draw in the booth of New York’s DeLorenzo Gallery. “For me, McKie is the American Giacometti,” says gallery director Adriana Friedman. “I’ve seen her whimsical animal figures in the homes of major art collectors.” Photo courtesy of DeLorenzo Gallery https://www.1stdibs.com/introspective-magazine/17-must-see-objects-at-the-salon-art-and-design-fair/

Hostler Burrows

Kristina Riska is among Finland’s most-lauded contemporary ceramists. “She has been defying and redefining the traditional tenets of ceramic sculpture since the 1980s,” says Juliet Burrows, co-owner of Manhattan’s Hostler Burrows gallery. The voluptuous Volta II, created in 2017 at Finland’s iconic Arabia ceramics atelier, is Riska’s latest experiment in clay. Photo courtesy of Hostler Burrows Sarah Myerscough Gallery

Britain’s “godfather of wood furniture,” John Makepeace, created this anthropomorphic group of sculpted bur oak chairs exclusively for London’s Sarah Myerscough Gallery. They’re the most recent manifestation of their maker’s career-long search for “eloquent concepts for furniture — freer, lighter, stronger and more sculptural.” Photo courtesy of Sarah Myerscough Gallery

Magen H Gallery

This commanding modular bookcase with Mondrian-like colors, conceived by visionary architect Charlotte Perriand for the Maison de Tunisie, a university dorm in Paris distinguished for the quality of its interior furnishings, “was very avant-garde when Perriand designed it in the early nineteen-fifties,” says Hugues Magen, of New York’s Magen H Gallery, which will display the rare pine, aluminum and lacquer piece at its booth. “She played with form, geometry and color like a construction game.” Photo courtesy of Magen H Gallery Twenty First Gallery

In its first outing at the Salon, Chelsea’s Twenty First Gallery is bound to cause a stir with Erwan Boulloud’s seven-foot-long Enfilade credenza, constructed of polished and patinated steel in the young designer’s atelier near Paris. “Even the hinges are handmade,” gallery owner Renaud Vuaillat says of the limited-edition piece, whose pattern is derived from cellular structures and whose base is a continuation of the surface design.

Galerie BSL

Pia-Maria Raeder’s Sea Anemone wall mirror is made of some 27,000 tiny sticks of beech wood, each painstakingly cut, arranged around seven bronze-colored reflective surfaces and then varnished. Parisbased Galerie BSL, making its first appearance at the Salon, will present Raeder’s unique work to American audiences alongside pieces by other contemporary European designers.

While visiting Hong Kong, Paris art dealer Philippe Rapin was so smitten by the meubles bijoux — furnishings and objects adorned with turquoise, pyrite, amber, agate and other gemstones — made there in the 1970s under the name Kam Tin that he bought the brand. This turquoise and brass coffee table is part of a new limited edition produced for Maison Rapin, which is coming to the Salon for the first time. Photo courtesy of Maison Rapin

Galleria Rossella Colombari

In the 1950s, architect Giò Ponti, leading light of Italian modernism, was hired to design ocean-liner interiors as part of an effort to promote high-style Italian design throughout the world. These fabric-covered armchairs with walnut legs came from a restaurant aboard the luxury ship Augustus. Milan’s Galleria Rossella Colombari is bringing them to the Salon, along with pieces by other influential figures in postwar Italian design. Photo courtesy of Galleria Rossella Colombari Studio HVN

Hand-dyed and -knotted by Nepalese craftsman, the luminous wool rugs in Studio HVN’s Eclipse series — each seemingly composed of two overlapping rugs, 10 feet in diameter and in vivid ombré colors — take four months to make. Henny van Nistelrooy, the gallery’s Dutch owner, who is based in China and teaches at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing, is making his debut at the Salon. Photo courtesy of Studio HVN

Patrick Parrish

One could be forgiven for not being able to identify this curious sculptural object. It is, in fact, a stack of brass and leather pipe rests made in the 1950s by Vienna’s Bauhaus-inspired Carl Auböck Workshop, whose expertly crafted everyday objects stand out for whimsical modernist design and quality materials. “Auböck has somehow eluded the spotlight,” says Zoe Fisher, director of the Patrick Parrish Gallery, whose booth at the Salon will be dedicated to its products. “They have become cult objects of desire, quietly cherished by savvy collectors.” Photo courtesy of Patrick Parrish Gallery

10 Questions With…Amy Lau By Annie Block

She’s come a long way from Arizona. But growing up in Paradise Valley—surrounded by red-clay canyons, attending Pueblo dances, and collecting rocks with her mineralogist grandmother—helped shape Amy Lau’s vision as an interior designer today. Attaining a bachelor’s in art history from the University of Arizona and a master’s in American fine and decorative art and design from Sotheby's Institute of Art, then working at Aero and Lin-Weinberg Gallery have been factors in her success, too. Now principal of Amy Lau Design in NY, she conceives interiors across the country, from TriBeCa to Texas, furnishings for Kyle Bunting, S. Harris, and Maya Romanoff, rooms for the Kips Bay Decorator Show House, and installations for Bergdorf Goodman and Baccarat. This week, Lau debuts “The New Nouveau,” her gallery installation at NY’s Salon Art + Design, the first of its kind by an interior designer. She gives us the details. Interior Design: Did you consider any other professions? Amy Lau: I flirted with the idea of being an archaeologist. My grandmother was a painter, mineralogist, and an ornithologist, with amazing rock and plant gardens. As I child, we would walk the landscape, on the hunt for the perfect stone for her collages. I often channel her when creating collections for clients. Also, growing up, my parents acquired paintings from the Taos Society of Artists and material culture from the Southwest. So art, in many forms, was a staple in our home, and museum and gallery ventures with my dad were often.

http://www.interiordesign.net/articles/14075-10-questions-with-amy-lau/

ID: What drew you to the Sothebyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s program? AL: I thought it would equip me with the academic credentials I needed to pursue a life in design. And I was right. We were introduced to a network of experts, curators, scholars, appraisers, dealers, and conservationists. We deconstructed furniture, analyzed woods, and even authenticated canvases under black light. We got entree into private collections as we crisscrossed the country, examining paintings, sculpture, textiles, furniture, ceramics, glass, and silver. The more I studied, the greater my appetite was to learn more. ID: What will we see in your Salon Art + Design installation? AL: It will be a living room showcasing the 120-year trajectory of art nouveau, which was technically a 12year period but its influence much longer. It will also depict my approach to design: ensemblier, French for conceiving an interior as a total work of art. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be creating an environment outfitted in rare historic pieces as well as modern and contemporary commissioned pieces amid a unique architectural setting.

http://www.interiordesign.net/articles/14075-10-questions-with-amy-lau/

ID: What are some pieces? AL: For the historic, I researched pieces by the most important designers internationally, Emile Galle, Louis Comfort Tiffany, Louis Majorelle. I analyzed more recent designers that continued to work in the genre, Albert Paley, Les Lalanne, Michael Coffey. And I commissioned pieces by contemporary designers—David Wiseman, Mark Brazier-Jones, Nancy Lorenz, Mary Wallis—whose work is still influenced by art nouveau. ID: Do you collect anything? AL: Many things but I think the most unusual are my naughty tea towels from the 1940’s and ’50’s. They’re hand-embroidered with images of pin-up gals.

ID: If cost were no obstacle, which artwork or furniture would you love to have? AL: A Leonora Carrington painting or furniture by Antoni Gaudí. In fact, his Casa Batlló in Barcelona is my favorite historic building. I practically had a religious experience the first time I saw it. ID: What’s a secret source you’re willing to share? AL: Live Auctioneers. It’s where all the auction houses come together, and you can type in exactly what you’re looking for. ID: Any under-the-radar artisan you’re keeping an eye on? AL: I recently visited Joseph Walsh’s studio in Cork—I think he’ll be one of the most important designers of our generation. I commissioned four dining chairs and they arrive this month.

http://www.interiordesign.net/articles/14075-10-questions-with-amy-lau/

Enignum VII dining chair by Joseph Walsh.

ID: Who inspires you? AL: Mary Elizabeth Jane Colter was a true pioneer. She trained to be an architect at the turn of the 20th century, when men dominated the profession, and went on to design hotels throughout the Southwest, many of which are now landmarked. Some of my favorites are La Posada, Hopi House, and Phantom Ranch. She managed to synthesize indigenous styles and modern tastes without diminishing authenticity. ID: Speaking of authenticity, what are you working on? AL: I just finished apartments on East End Avenue and in TriBeCaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s One York, a beach home in Bridgehampton, and another cow-hide rug line for Kyle Bunting. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m currently designing a 21,000-squarefoot Dallas residence, a four-bedroom family home on Long Island, and a Brooklyn townhouse. Whatever the project, my job is to understand who my client is, then educate and gently guide them. I try to elevate their understanding and connoisseurship, so they can make the best decisions for pieces in their spaces.

Kiki’s, The Polo Bar, and David Zwirner: Annastasia Seebohm’s New York By Staff Writer

Nina Chanel Abney’s exhibition at Jack Shainman Gallery, New York. Courtesy of Jack Shainman Gallery, New York.

This week, Whitewaller New York launches for The Salon Art+ Design (November 9-13). To help guide you to the best spots in town—where you can eat, drink, see art, and relax at, we hear from a group of insiders. Up next, we hear from Annastasia v Seebohm, CEO, USA of Quintessentially WHERE TO EAT AND SIP I’ve had so many super evenings at The Polo Bar. I love the juxtaposition of the refined interior and comfort food menu. I order the burger accompanied by a glass of champagne. Kiki’s is perfect for a casual, low-key dinner. I’m half-Greek, so I practically order the entire menu. WHERE TO SEE ART Our offices are in the heart of Chelsea, so I take advantage of that whenever I can. Two new galleries are opening on our block, and I’m excited to check them out. I rate the Jack Shainman Gallery and David Zwirner highly. My perfect Saturday morning is gallery-hopping before heading to the Whitney, followed by a late lunch. WHERE TO HAVE FUN AND RELAX One of my favorite places is Washington Square Park. I find it’s such a New York thing to be able to watch a concert-level pianist playing live for free under the arch every weekend! And nothing compares to an evening at the opera. I’m excited about the new season ahead and looking forward to seeing Norma. https://www.whitewall.art/lifestyle/kikis-the-polo-bar-and-david-zwirner-annastasia-v-seebohms-new-york

Whitewaller: The Salon Art + Design 2017 Launches in New York By Katy Donoghue

Adrian Sassoon The Salon Art + Design

This week, Whitewaller New York launches for The Salon Art+ Design. After an amazing start to the fall exhibition season—including a fantastic, poignant, and timely show by our guest editor, Sanford Biggers, “Selah” at Marianne Boesky Gallery—we’re looking forward to what’s to come this season. This November, you’ll find us first at the opening of the Van Cleef & Arpels’s “L’Arche de Noé” exhibition, with an immersive set design by none other than Robert Wilson. We’ll also be at The Park Avenue Armory for The Salon Art + Design. In our “Up Close” section, you’ll find director Jill Bokor’s take on the 2017 edition. We also catch up with Misha Kahn and Nina Chanel Abney, whose shows open at Friedman Benda and Jack Shainman, respectively, this month. Also in November is the Performa 17 biennial, taking place in unexpected locations throughout the city for weeks, as well as the highly anticipated evening Post-War and Contemporary sales at powerhouses Christie’s and Sotheby’s, and auctions with Paddle8 and Phillips to keep an eye out for, too. In addition to the artist Sanford Biggers privileging our pages as guest editor, we’ve got insiders like Lisa Perry, Marc Dennis, and Patricia Cronin sharing their side of New York, as well as Matthew Bauer of the Madison Avenue BID introducing our special Madison Avenue section. And don’t miss a first look at Whitewaller Miami to warm you up for the week of Art Basel in Miami Beach, just around the corner. https://www.whitewall.art/lifestyle/whitewaller-salon-art-design-2017-launches-new-york

Guest Editor Sanford Biggers for Whitewaller New York 2017: The Salon Art + Design By Sanford Biggers

Photo by Alex Fredundt

New York is the land of plenty and many, and this is my favorite time of the year, when the city teases with autumn while still tasting the last drops of summer. While the country roils in historically unaddressed issues and fears, New York offers a look at the U.S. at its best—a true cornucopia of culture and cultures, straightforward and direct, full of integrity and hyper-inclusive by default. It’s great to be invited to guest edit this edition of Whitewaller New York, because every idea, innovation, and identity calls this city home. Some of the best places to see art in the city are in museums and institutions like The Noguchi Museum (showing “The Sculpture of Gonzalo Fonseca” now through March 11), The Studio Museum in Harlem (with fall exhibitions like “Fictions” and “We Go as They” that are the last to be shown in the old building, before the massive renovation by David Adjaye), and The Hispanic Society Museum and Library. I’m looking forward to seeing shows like “Trigger: Gender as Tool and Weapon” at the New Museum, “The Art Ensemble of Chicago” at Columbia University Lenfest Center for the Arts, and “Toyin Ojih Odutola: To Wander Determined” at The Whitney.

https://www.whitewall.art/art/guest-editor-sanford-biggers-whitewaller-new-york-2017-salon-art-design

Outside of my favorite cultural institutions, you can find me dining at spots like Red Rooster in Harlem, Esther & Carol on the Bowery in Nolita, and Yuzu Premium Sushi in Harlem. For drinks, I like The Office at the Mandarin Oriental, and Dutch Kills in Long Island City serves up some superior cocktails. And if you don’t spot me at any of the places above, you can at least see my work—following my solo show at Marianne Boesky, “Selah,” which closed on October 21—on view at The Met in “Talking Pictures” (through December 17) and “AMERICAN AFRICAN AMERICAN” at Phillips on Berkeley Square in London, November 8–25.

ART AND DESIGN ACROSS THE SPECTRUM ON VIEW AT TWO NY SHOWS By Katy B. Olson However small or grand your client’s budget, the two art shows kicking off in New York on Thursday will have you covered. THE SALON ART + DESIGN FAIR heads to the PARK AVENUE ARMORY, and THE OTHER ART FAIR is opening across the bridge at the BROOKLYN EXPO CENTER.

Salon Art + Design hosts 56 galleries specializing in collectible design and art that dates from 1890 to the present, showcasing, as the org says, “every important design movement from art nouveau to the work of contemporary superstars side by side with fine art from the 20th and 21st centuries.” All of the exhibitors are vetted, and among them are ATMOSPHERE BY AMY LAU, DEMISCH DANANT, DELORENZO GALLERY, GALERIE NEGROPONTES, NILUFAR, R&R COMPANY and others. The Salon fair will host a number of events: GALERIE editor in chief Margaret Russell and architect/curator Lee F. Mindel of SHELTONMINDEL will discuss the showcased work in “The Artful Eye Presented by Galerie Magazine,” coming up this Saturday; TASCHEN will man a pop-up experience throughout; and “Material Revolution: A Conversation About the Future of Design,” a discussion on Saturday, will focus on what’s to come.

The SAATCHI ART–sponsored The Other Art Fair, which focuses on more affordable art, will host street artist André Saraiva, who will be on hand to create limited-edition prints for the fair’s charity partner, FREE ARTS NYC. More than half of the artists at the fair are women, and nearly a third are based in Brooklyn. “Our goal is always to ensure visitors to the fair have an immersive experience with art, not only by featuring some of the world’s best emerging talents, but also offering bespoke activations with like-minded brands supportive of new artists and creativity,” said founder Ryan Stanier. “The Other Art Fair was founded to connect art lovers with interesting and innovative artists and create a space where discovery is fun and nonintimidating for first-time art buyers.”

The Other Art Fair, which also runs fairs throughout the U.S. and in the U.K. and Australia, is hosting the Saatchi Art Talks program with Saatchi’s chief curator, Rebecca Wilson, as well as an immersive art experience hewing to the theme of sustainability, presented by Brooklyn-based artist Amit Greenberg.

The Salon: Art + Design, November 9-13 By Staff Writer On the heels of the SOFA Chicago, there’s now a fair coming to New York City featuring “the world’s most influential galleries in art, architecture, and design.” The Salon: Art + Design opens on Thursday, November 9th, and runs through Monday the 13th at the Park Avenue Armory. I’ve been finding myself more-interested in design lately and wanted to preview this fair, to see if I could dig up some exhibitors of interest that I would like to see if I’m able to get in and see the show. Here’s a few that caught my attention: Check out this piece – it’s a tall mineral commode in nickel plated metal with a walnut interior, by the Garrido Gallery in Madrid, Spain. Garrido is a family-run workshop begun by Damián fifty years ago and carried on today by his two children, Juan and Paloma, who approach their designs with an avant-garde sensibility. WHen both doors are closed, this commode almost looks like a cubist creation … I love it!

Here’s a pair of turquoise coffee tables by the designer Kam Tin, featured at Maison Rapin in Paris. They’re made with bronze, brass, and covered with turquoise … but don’t expect to pick up a pair of these whenever you feel like it; they’re part of a limited edition of 25.

http://www.artsology.com/blog/2017/11/the-salon-art-design-november-9-13/

This pair of objects are by Reinier Bosch, featured at Priveekollektie Contemporary Art | Design, based in The Netherlands. At left is the “Ink Writer” table lamp, and at right is a table titled “Secret Lagoon,” both from “The Melting Series,” a series of furniture that seems to melt where the objects are each made as one piece.

In its six years, The Salon Art+Design has gained a reputation for high caliber exhibitors who combine styles, genres, and periods, from historic to contemporary, to create a vibrant mix of impeccable quality. This year, 56 galleries from 11 countries will exhibit a dazzling array of material. Events include Design Conversations, Designer Tours, Pop-Up exhibits and an exhibition on the jewelry of Giampiero Bodino. For the first time in its history, Salon Art+Design has invited an interior designer to exhibit at the fair, New York’s Amy Lau. Lau’s installation, “Atmosphere by Amy Lau” will present a living room designed with the theme “The New Nouveau.” Lau has selected works by Art Nouveau designers of the 1940s through 1960s and paired their material with the work of contemporary designers influenced by the style period. Conceived as a unified whole, the Art Nouveau theme encompasses the aesthetics of the furniture to the hand-painted murals and the upholstery.

EXHIBITIONS Heavy Metals November 8-December 21, 2017 Donzella LTD 17 White Street, NYC http://www.donzella.com

"Metamorphosis," Unique Bronze Console Table by Philip & Kelvin LaVerne. American, ca. 1965.

Donzella, specializing in post-war design and contemporary works, many created specifically for the gallery, is hostingHeavy Metals, an exhibition curated with an eye toward distinctive and imaginative uses of metals that represent the gamut of metalworking techniques: forging, hammering, casting, welding, melding, pleating, etching. Heavy Metalsoffers an equally dynamic breadth of solutions to the challenge of form and function, and the quest for beauty. In total, the exhibition comprises a kind of metallurgical symphony, encompassing the bold and edgy, the exquisitely refined, the whimsical, and, of course, the ironic. Spanning a century of design history, a rich range of styles will be on view: from the hand-hammered grace of the Hagenauer Werkstätte to the sleek minimalism of Gabriella Crespi; masterworks by Philip & Kelvin LaVerne, classics by Donald Deskey, and contemporary gems by Alexandre Logé, to name a few. Along with Art Deco, Jugenstil, Minimalist, Brutalist, and Postmodern works are those that defy easy categorization, such as Claire Falkenstein’s powerhouse sculptures, or Ghiora Aharoni’s assemblage sculpture, which incorporates vintage & antique silver.

Macklowe Gallery’s New Flagship Location Opens Mid-November, 2017 57th Street & Park Avenue, NYC http://www.macklowegallery.com

This November, Macklowe Gallery unveils its new location in the heart of midtown Manhattan. With just over 6,000 square-feet of space and 130 feet of frontage, the location increases visibility tenfold in an area that is an art and antiques hub. In addition to more than tripling the ground floor exhibition area, the new location will also feature a dedicated library for the gallery’s extensive collection of books and other industry resources, as well as an expanded showroom that doubles as an event and lecture space. The gallery is recognized for museum-quality Art Nouveau furniture and decorative arts, including the lamps and glassware of Louis Comfort Tiffany, and carefully curated Art Nouveau, Art Deco, and Mid-20thcentury jewelry. Gallery president, Benjamin Macklowe, notes that the larger space will provide the opportunity to further their product offerings into later periods. “We are very excited to be expanding. It’s rare that a family business continues through to the next generation and it’s exciting for me to be able to share my passion and knowledge,” says Macklowe. “I’m very optimistic about the future of our industry. Beautiful things are uplifting and we all need that.” He adds, “With our new gallery’s increased presence, we will have the opportunity to make people aware of this beautiful material. Our business was built on people who were curious and were interested in learning about what they saw in our shop window. We now will have an even greater influx of curious onlookers who can see what’s so special inside.

Art in the Open: Fifty Years of Public Art in New York November 10, 2017-May 13, 2018 Museum of the City of New York http://mcny.org/exhibition/art-open

Until the 1960s, most public art in New York City was limited to war memorials, civic-minded murals, or relief sculpture embodying universal values like “Fraternity” or “Wisdom.” But the late 1960s brought a new era that embraced the individual artist’s voice and vision in the public realm. In the years since, hundreds of innovative art works, both permanent and temporary, have been installed in the public spaces of New York, making this the most robust and vibrant environment for public art in the world.

https://www.incollect.com/articles/this-week-s-events-salon-art-design-american-art-fair-heavy-metals-at-donzellamacklowe-s-new-gallery-winslow-homer-more

Presented to mark the 40th anniversary of the pioneering Public Art Fund, Art in the Open highlights works that have transformed both the public spaces of the city as well as public expectation of the role and potential of art that exists outside of the traditional confines of museums and galleries. The exhibition features renderings, models, photographs, and video footage tracing the creation of public artworks by such artists as Red Grooms, Christo and Jeanne-Claude, and Kara Walker.

Considered one of the most influential contemporary American artists, Weems is celebrated for her photography, films, and videos that address social themes focusing on race, gender, and class. For the Beacon series, Weems documented the changing landscape and culture of Beacon, NY, over the course of her year there as artist-in-residence in 2002. Like Edward Hopper’s hometown of Nyack, NY, Beacon is a diverse community that has seen many changes over the years as it has evolved from a factory town to a center of arts and culture. Places of historic and cultural significance such as Dia:Beacon are featured in the photographs. Weems places herself as the subject, always standing with her back to the camera, observing and as she says, “bearing witness, confronting something, [serving] as a guide to the viewer standing with me, [we are] witnessing something together though our experience of it might not be the same.”

From March 1881 through November 1882, iconic American artist Winslow Homer lived in the small fishing village of Cullercoats on the northeastern coast of England—a period that was pivotal in the development of his work. This November, this crucial period in Homer’s life will be explored in a new exhibition at the Worcester Art Museum. Coming Away: Winslow Homer and England will show how the landscape of England, the artists he met there, and the reviews his work received while abroad all had a profound impact on his career. While in England, Homer engaged with the work of the country’s masters, including Joseph Mallord William Turner and Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema, as well as with paintings by regional artists from the coastal village of Cullercoats, where he established a studio. Homer also purchased two cameras at this time, suggesting his interest in contemporary forms of picture making.Coming Away demonstrates how new influences impacted Homer’s artistic development during and after his stay in England, and how this time exacerbated the tensions he felt between the traditional nature of his subject matter and the modernity of his aesthetic vision. The exhibition features 50 works by Homer, as well as paintings by his English contemporaries; the exhibition is organized in collaboration with the Milwaukee Art Museum.

On Friday, December 8 at 6pm, Dr. Sarah Burns, Ruth N. Halls Professor Emerita of Art History at Indiana University, Bloomington, will present the keynote lecture for a symposium examining Winslow Homer’s time in England. A day of talks by noted scholars of American and British art will follow on Saturday, December 9, from 9:30am to 5:30pm. Registration is required and can be made by calling 508-793-4317.

This month Robert Klein Gallery is featuring the stunning work of photographer Sebastião Salgado. Economist-turned-artist Sebastião Salgado began his photography practice after his finance role with the International Coffee Organization and the World Bank led him to travel to tea plantations in Africa. Inspired by the people he photographed during his trips, Salgado quit his finance job to continue traveling and photographing the rest of the world and its inhabitants. His works highlight global issues relating to nature, workers, and the human condition, and while he believes that his photographs alone will not be able to change the world, he uses them as a vehicle for awareness coupled with larger movements for action.

#Wanted : 5 pièces collector signées Giampiero Bodino à shopper uniquement à New York By Anne-Sophie Mallard

Partenaire de l’événement The Salon Art + Design de New York, qui se tient sur Park Avenue du 9 au 13 novembre prochain, le joaillier italien emmène dans ses malles aux trésors 5 nouvelles parures haute joaillerie à son image. Directeur artistique de la haute joaillerie Richemont pendant près d’une décennie, c’est en 2013 que Giampiero Bodino a fait son entrée fracassante et éponyme dans le milieu très feutré de la haute joaillerie. Avec une seule adresse à son nom, située Via Mozart à Milan et accessible uniquement sur rendezvous, le joaillier réussit pourtant le pari d’avoir hissé son nom et sa fantaisie audacieuse jusqu’à la skyline de Manhattan. Partenaire pour la première fois de The Salon Art + Design, Giampiero Bodino s’installe donc sur Park Avenue, du 9 au 13 novembre, et expose 5 de ses dernières créations d’atelier aux côtés des galeries arty les plus en vogue. Des pièces uniques, qui racontent et dessinent, chacune à leur manière, les contours de la haute joaillerie voulue par Giampiero Bodino. D’un côté, le chassé-croisé élégant des lignes d’or de Mosaico, de l’autre la pureté d’une dentelle de diamants taille poire, sans oublier le volume des fleurs démesurées si chères au créateur.

A Conversation with the Salon Art + Design’s Executive Director Jill Bokor By Nicole Anderson

LOTUS SOFA BY ZHIPENG TAN. PHOTOGRAPH COURTESY GALLERY ALL AND THE SALON ART + DESIGN.

The Salon Art + Design returns this week for its sixth edition at the Park Avenue Armory, presenting a lively mix of furniture and decorative and fine arts from an international group of exhibitors. In addition to returning galleries, several newcomers will join, including Amy Lau, Chesterfield Gallery, Etage Projects, Daniel Lévy & Associés, and Twenty First Gallery, among others. We spoke with executive director Jill Bokor about what’s new and the fair’s compelling and heterogeneous selection of objects and art.

Nicole Anderson/MODERN MAGAZINE: Salon is right around the corner, what can visitors expect from this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s edition, and how might it be different from years past? Jill Bokor: The visitor to this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Salon Art + Design can expect to see representation of the past 125 years of international design. The journey starts with the early twentieth century furniture of Josef Hoffman in the booth of Yves Macaux and ends with work commissioned recently for the fair in booths like Sarah Myerscough of London, Etage Projects of Copenhagen, Juan Garrido of Madrid, and Twenty-Twenty First Gallery of New York. The art work that complements all this amazing design is highly curated and visitors will see stunning examples of twentieth century masters from Leger to Kusama to Chamberlain.

MM: Is there anything you’re particularly excited about from this year’s roster of exhibitors? JB: I was flattered when three years ago, a major design influencer referred to the Salon as “the shopping show.” Here the collector can find everything from historical and contemporary lighting to an ever-widening range of ceramics and glass. I’m always intrigued about the idea of unexpected pairings so I would love to see a collector who is interested in combining a South Arabian 3rd century stele with a Japanese ceramic, and putting both on a highly contemporary console. For these I would point the visitor to Ariadne Galleries—our only booth of classic ancient art; Joan Mirviss with her extraordinary collection of contemporary Japanese ceramics; and Cristina Grajales for an amazing wrought-iron and glass cabinet.

MM: The Salon is unique in its blending of fine and decorative art. Why do you think it is important to create a fair that offers such a vast range of objects and artwork? JB: Because people live this way! We encourage our exhibitors to create environments, not to simply show objects—because while there can certainly be a lusting after an object of desire, most people look at the pieces they’re buying in a broader context. The history of antiques shows and even some art fairs is that they are very oriented to the individual pieces, but the collectors that we talk to are always about the whole as much as the specific parts. I think it’s a reason that so many designers like to buy at our fair.

MM: The fair not only brings together furniture, decorative arts, and fine art under one roof, it also mixes historic with contemporary. Can you touch upon the thought process behind this? JB: This also goes to the way people like to create their homes. The Charlotte Perriand bookcase in Magen H gallery can reside in a townhouse or the most contemporary apartment in Chelsea. And, once there, it can work with an incredible piece of contemporary glass from the Chesterfield Gallery. When I first started in the art world, collecting was completely vertical and it was a privilege to see extraordinarily specific collections of seventeenth century Dutch flower paintings or art deco furniture. The wholeheartedness of these collections was astonishing, but I think that’s morphed into something else. Discerning collectors still—and always will—seek quality, but there seems to be a much more open-mindedness about mixing periods and genres. That’s why we love the mix!

MM: How will the fair be organized inside the Armory? How are you maximizing this grand historic structure? JB: Unlike some of the other fairs that attempt to whiteout the amazing architecture of the Armory, we celebrate it. After all, it’s designers like Louis Comfort Tiffany, Stanford White, and the Herter Brothers— designers who played important roles in the building—who are a point of departure for material at the Salon. We also use the historic rooms, exactly as they are, to house our jewelry exhibition, bookstore, and Collectors’ Lounge.

A spasso senza meta nel ventre favoloso di New York Il Mad Visionaires award, il Vera List Center Prize, Performa e Salon NY Art+Design By Diana Marrone Lo sapevate che Madaleine Allbright (il primo segretario di Stato donna della storia politica americana ed anche il primo ad essere ‘non nativo’ nel senso Trumpiano data la sua origine centro-europea) faceva diplomazia attraverso le spille (oltre che controversi affari con sue società di investimento proprio in Centro Europa)? Ogni volta che voleva lanciare un preciso messaggio in un consesso istituzionale o diplomatico (fiori e farfalle erano positivi, altre invece suggerivano messaggi negativi come quando approvò le prime, pesanti sanzioni sull’Iraq), indossava spille vistose sui baveri delle giacche e la sua intera collezione è stata donata al Museo di Foreign Policy e alle librerie presidenziali. Lo abbiamo scoperto - insieme ad aneddoti più interessanti relativi al suo impegno serio e costante nelle arti e nella cultura, anche se non era il suo ruolo ad imporglielo - quando è stata premiata, insieme ad importanti personalità del mondo delle arti e del design, MAD Visionaries! 2017. Per celebrare i 60 anni di vita del The Museum of Arts and Design (un elegante e ben attrezzato museo dedicato alle arti applicate dove al momento sono quattro le mostre ospitate fino al prossimo febbraio oltre a diversi studio ed atelier prestati ad artisti e designer all’interno del museo più una curiosa iniziativa di arte pubblica e design dentro e fuori il suo edificio, AMPL!FY), si è tenuto ieri uno speciale evento di fundraising con un’asta benefica da Cipriani, dove i donors hanno potuto anche scoprire i premiati 2017. Tra essi, anche l’italiano Barnaba Fornasetti, che ha donato anche una delle sue sedie che è stata battuta all’asta per oltre 5000 dollari. Secondo uno dei giovani fundraiser del MAD, con cui ci siamo intrattenuti al tavolo durante la premiazione, una delle caratteristiche più importanti del museo - che lo rendono unico nel panorama museale dedicato alle arti applicate non solo negli USA, aggiungiamo noi - è proprio l’accenno alla formazione ‘continua’ ed il lavoro specifico con le scuole. Oltre che, ovviamente, la importante funzione d’atelier per gli artisti che sono invitati periodicamente a stabilire il proprio studio all’interno del museo e quindi interagire più fluidamente sia con i curatori che con il pubblico di ogni genere ed età. Eventi come il MAD Ball (il museo prepara due eventi di fundraising all’anno e questo è il suo principale) sono cruciali per continuare a mantenere tutte le attività di formazione in piedi, dato che il museo si regge quasi sostanzialmente su fondi privati. New York ha di recente ospitato anche il Vera List Prize for Art and Politics 2016/1018, attribuito senza alcun limite di nazionalità e su base biennale dalla più interessante branch d’arte al mondo - e l’unica ad occuparsi della commistione arte/politica.

http://www.prundercover.com/en/blog/205/Wandering-adrift-in-the-cavernous-formidable-New-York-belly.html

Situata alla The New School, quest’anno ha arricchito il momento del premio (andato alla brasiliana di stanza a Berlino, Maria Teresa Alves) con una due giorni di studio ed approfondimento attorno all’opera dell’artista premiata che è nota per creare giardini residuali e spontanei riflettendo su temi quali la nazionalità, la diaspora etc (spesso i suoi giardini raccontano una prospettiva inedita, la ‘botanica’ dell’emigrazione, usando a pretesto una serie di nozioni di paesaggio e di evoluzioni di specie botaniche avvenute per la dispersione del terreno che faceva da contrappeso alle navi e quindi trasportava semi non autoctoni, quelli dei colonialisti del commercio, da un luogo all’altro del pianeta: tutto questo avviene ancora oggi). Se Kehaulanu Kauanui - docente di American Studies e prolifica autrice - ci ha parlato della sottile complicazione relativa alla dicotomia nativism/indigenation (specialmente in relazione all’abuso della parola nativo da parte dell’attuale presidente Trump) e di come un significato distorto possa facilitare una certa agenzia colonialistica che porta diretti alla giustificazione dell’uso fisico politico e cosmologico (insomma la distrazione della terra dai popoli proprietari …e The New School, dove il simposio avveniva, è su una terra Lenape: Manhattan era indiana come molti altri luoghi americani), Seth Denizen invece ci ha introdotti ad una incredibile storia letta da lui tra urbanistica e politologia in Messico dopo il recentissimo terremoto di settembre. Mette insieme l’uso specifico che l’artista Alves fa del suolo al collasso dello stesso in Messico (a volte sprofondato di un metro) e in particolare alla relazione di questo fenomeno con la qualità ‘finanzializzata’ del settore di edilizia pubblica in quel paese che rende di fatto diverse le ‘qualità materiali’ del terreno da costruzione dato il fragile contesto, impoverendo i proprietari. L’europeo Tomas Mastnak di stanza a Princeton per ricerche ha invece concentrato la prolusione sulla qualità semantica di un’altra caratteristica dell’opera di Alves, che si interroga sempre e continuamente su ‘come e dove stiamo in piedi’ sulla terra, su quale suolo. E ci ha fatto riflettere che spesso, ‘alcuni semi di fiori cooperano con i ‘settlers’ e colonizzano paesaggi prima devoti a culture primigenie sradicandole: ad esempio il 99% dei fiori californiani si è suicidato lasciando posto a specie lontane’ E’ qualcosa che sa di genocidio… La qualità - o meglio le infinite qualità e poteri, incluso lo storytelling - dei semi sono state oggetto di altrettanto interessanti prolusioni e conversazioni come quelle di Jane Bennett (politologa) e Radhika Subramaniam (Parsons), che tra le altre cose ci ha ricordato che ‘i semi insegnano agli artisti che il tempo può ancora restare fermo’. Il Vera List Prize non si è esaurito nella due giorni di convegni (e nell’inaugurazione della bella mostra della Alves che presenta disegni e piante nella galleria della The New School fino al 27 novembre): un giorno a settimana (il 7, il 9, il 14, il 21) ci sono delle conversazioni all’ora di pranzo alla Aronson Gallery e 3 camminate esplorative per piantare semi, visitare giardini e molto di più (su prenotazione). New York apre anche il suo gigantesco ventre a Performa 2017, diventato evento biennale. Per saperne di più sul gigantesco roster di eventi (150 artisti con 40 curatori e un pubblico atteso di oltre 40,000), meglio passare qualche tempo all’hub del festival (427 Broadway) dove farsi aiutare nella navigazione del programma dai mediatori, prenotare le performance a pagamento o prenotare quelle gratuite ma a capienza limitata, e magari ascoltare anche talk e presentazioni di libri. Oltre a danza e azioni d’arte, ci sono live di ogni tipo, persino marce in danza (come quella organizzata da Storefront con the Marching Cobras di Harlem) e addirittura action painting in forma di intervista (come quello di Tracey Emin il 10 novembre). Non manca il design da collezione, con un appuntamento ormai considerato ‘fisso’, Salon NY Art+ Design (per il pubblico dal 10 al 13 novembre all’Armory).

http://www.prundercover.com/en/blog/205/Wandering-adrift-in-the-cavernous-formidable-New-York-belly.html

Non è una fiera totalmente simile alle sue ‘consorelle’ (come ad esempio, per restare nel continente americano, Design Miami) in quanto affianca (con un certo stile, che si potrebbe definire senza tempo) al decorativo anche il moderno e contemporaneo nelle arti visive. Le gallerie quest’anno sono 50, le nazioni da cui provengono 14 (le europee in numero maggiore).

Cutting-edge design meets antiques at New York’s Salon The Salon Art + Design fair returns to the Park Avenue Armory for its sixth year this month By Sarah P. Hanson

The Salon Art + Design fair returns to the Park Avenue Armory for its sixth year this month. Of the roughly 56 exhibitors, more than half come from outside the US, including first-timers Galleria Rossella Colombari (Italy), Garrido Gallery (Spain), and Etage Projects (Denmark). Mixing cutting-edge furnishings and design objects with art from antiquity to the present, the fair is known for its broad approach. “There’s been this incredible transition in how people think about collecting,” says Jill Bokor, the executive director, “going from extremely vertical collecting to much more horizontal.” In her opinion, buyers are no longer looking for individual objects, but “intriguing combinations of things”.

http://theartnewspaper.com/news/cutting-edge-design-meets-antiques-at-new-yorks-salon

Bokor has accordingly invited for the first time an interior designer, Amy Lau, to present a section mixing art and design of all ages. It will include, for example, an iridescent Tiffany Studios Cypriote vase (around 1899) opposite a rainbow ombré glass chair (2017) by German Ermics. “The brief is really to try to present this material as people would see it in a home,” Bokor says. When it works, the room-set approach can really pay off: according to Bokor, two years ago, somebody bought a whole stand. •

Giampiero Bodino Exhibits High Jewelry at The Salon Art + Design By Staff Writer

Photo by Guido Taroni

The high jewelry designer Giampiero Bodino will present a group of one-of-a-kind pieces at The Salon Art + Design. Within the setting of the stunning Library of the Park Avenue Armory, the five unique creations are emblematic of Bodinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s taste and eye for beauty. Before launching his eponymous maison in 2013, Bodino worked for two decades as the creative director of Richemont. Whitewaller spoke with Bodino about his interest in architecture and antiques and his excitement about showing his collection within a fine art and design context. WHITEWALLER: Can you tell us about what we can expect from the special exhibition of your jewelry at The Salon Art + Design? GIAMPIERO BODINO: First, I fell in love with the Park Avenue Armory. I think it represents an architecture of New York that really fascinates me. My studies were in architecture, and it is something that has always inspired me. I was really elated by the Library as well. I found the proportions and dimensions absolutely amazing and was impressed by the quality of the details.

https://www.whitewall.art/lifestyle/giampiero-bodino-exhibits-high-jewelry-salon-art-design

WW: Five unique pieces were created for the occasion. Can you tell me about these pieces? GB: We wanted to design pieces that represented our codes. We designed five pieces that represent our taste. We’ve done a special version of our Mosaico necklace that in this case is super-clean, very light, by using only diamonds. And we created the Mosaico ring totally with diamonds as well. The Mosaico bracelet is more related to shapes of architecture, in pink gold and diamond, which is kind of like a tromp l’oeil chain, but it’s very flat. Another geometrical form we made with concentric circles. It is very wearable and very light, a combination with our pink gold and diamonds. It is something that is modern and antique at the same time and quite easy to wear. The Primavera ring is inspired by nature and is a mixture of romanticism and flamboyancy. It’s a very special flower with petals covered in paraiba tourmalines combined with an amazing central mandarin garnet. I think the combination of the two colors is amazing. WW: What is it like for you to exhibit your pieces within an art and design context? GB: I’m very comfortable with this. I’m an aficionado of antique furniture. So to be present and have a chance to show my pieces in that context is very important. I’m very happy. WW: Can you tell us about your design process? Does it start from a sketch? From a stone? GB: I belong to the category of designers that design. I really like to sketch, to think of something and then represent it on paper. I can buy a stone or a set of stones, feel the stones, and my mind reacts and I come up with a drawing inspired by them. Or the creative process goes the other way, where I have in mind a decorative motif and design what I have in mind, put the color on it, and then when satisfied with proportions and color I find the stones. WW: Do you see your work as a form of art? As sculptural? GB: I’m a painter as well, so I consider painting art. Jewelry is a form of art, of course, but it’s different, to be honest. I have a lot of inspiration. We put a lot of time and energy into what we do. Jewelry is something on a different scale. It’s designed for a person to express a form of art and is wearable. It’s a portable piece of art.

Adrian Sassoon Highlights Artists Who Bridge Art, Design, and Technology At Salon, the esteemed London dealer shows artists breathing new life into clay, silver, and more By Brook Mason

Vessels by Kate Malone. Photo: Sylvain Deleu

The London dealer Adrian Sassoon, who began as curator at the Getty and has been a favorite source for the likes of Peter Marino and Jacques Grange, is known for staying ahead of the curve in showcasing the latest batch of talents for connoisseurs. As the Salon Art + Design fair, opening at the Park Avenue Armory this week, all eyes are certain to be, once again, on his offeringsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and no wonder. His flock of artists run the gamut in their respective media, but all are pushing the boundaries in art and design, creating contemporary work that, Sassoon thinks, can stand its own next to the Old Masters. AD talks to Sassoon about his selection process and his artists Michael Eden, Kate Malone, and Andrew Wicks. AD: What is most crucial to you in choosing artists?

https://www.architecturaldigest.com/story/adrian-sassoon-salon-artists-who-bridge-art-design-and-technology

Adrian Sassoon: Works of art that will stand the test of time and are not a one-minute-wonder are what matter to me. Given that many of my friends collect contemporary art and design and others Old Masters, I want to be triply certain that they are buying objects that will endure through the ages.

Three works by Michael Eden. Photo: Sylvain Deleu

AD: While at the Getty, you were deeply involved in acquisitions; how did that stint in L.A. impact your life as a dealer? AS: That experience taught me about choices in seeking out the finest quality and tapping the finest opinions while looking for grand, important works of art. AD: Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve long been bringing a small band of artists who turn to high technology to the forefront. Can you tell us about Michael Eden? AS: While at the Royal College of Art, Michael mastered digital designs, which are then printed using modern materials into the actual shape of Wedgwood urns. Yet he never opts for exacting replication, but rather reinterprets forms, sometimes with a Day-Glo palette.

A detail of Kate Malone's work. Photo: Sylvain Deleu

AD: Can you speak a bit about the clay artist Kate Malone, whose work approaches sculpture in new and novel ways? AS: She is a rare talent inspired by nature. and the U.K.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sweetheart potter. For her recent work, Kate builds complex multi-faceted forms, some of which feature acorns and oak leaves, and then sheathes them with shimmering crystalline glazes. Design and art collectorsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;among them Lord Rothschildâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;favor her intriguing works. But her prices range from modest sums for vessels frequently given to friends up to ones for colossal pieces for museums and seasoned collectors.

AD: What makes Hiroshi Suzukiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s silver vessels so distinctive? AS: He eschews even drawings and models yet spontaneously hand-hammers silver into vases. As ripples and waves always mark the very surfaces, Hiroshi breaks new ground as a silversmith. For me, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always about seeking out compelling creativity coupled with a handmade aesthetic.

Interview: Jill Bokor on the design trends to watch out for at The Salon Art + Design 2017 By Staff Writer

New York’s most anticipated design festival, The Salon Art + Design, opens today and it promises to be as delightful as ever with its eclectic array of art and design exhibits from across the world. We get Jill Bokor, Executive Director, The Salon, to share her insights into the upcoming design trends and the show stealers at the fair’s 2017 edition. Edited excerpts: What are the themes and trends to watch out for in The Salon Art + Design 2017? Though we certainly aren’t living in a gilded age, I am seeing a lot of shiny new pieces of furniture, whether they be all in one metallic material or combinations of wood and marble. You can find these kind of pieces in the booths of Negropontes and Garrido. There’s also been a resurgence of interest in ceramics; great examples can be found in the varied pieces brought by Adrian Sassoon of London, Pierre Marie Giraud of Brussels and Joern Lohmann and Joan Mirvess of New York. Between these fascinating galleries, the visitor can expect to be inspired by form, texture and color — the perfect mix of art and design!

http://www.blouinartinfo.com/news/story/2654109/interview-jill-bokor-on-the-design-trends-to-watch-out-for-at

What are your observations about the major changes or shift in the world of design since the festival’s first edition? What I’m seeing now is a definite shift away from earlier 20th century material. It’s the inverse of what was happening 10 years ago when people put together collections of Art Deco or International Mid-Century modern. Back then, an “experimental” piece of contemporary design might be added to the mix to be admired and talked about, but it acted more as an enhancement rather than seen as integral to the collection. Now, people are buying much more contemporary work by designers like The Campana Brothers, Joseph Walsh, David Wiseman, Glithero, and Mattia Bonetti and choosing them to accent them with more vintage material. So you get something like a Mattia Bonneti console augmented by working perfectly with a Sottsass chair. Overall, people are feeling fewer restrictions, generally freer to mix materials, genres and periods. Would you like to predict how the future of design is going to be in the next five years? I would say two things to that point; firstly, with the millennials entering the marketplace for collectible design and art, accessibility will be important — both artistically and materially. And, luckily, there is work being made that is affordable to this new group of collectors. Education will become an important factor for these new collectors. Because they’re fresh to the market, they’ll be looking at the continuum of design to understand the work that’s being made today. Real estate is going to play an important role as well; as apartments and houses become smaller, editing becomes more necessary, as does a greater focus on functional design. Secondly, for both new comers to the market and established collectors, overall quality, which has always been a primary concern, is going to matter more than ever. The quality of contemporary design gets better all the time — referencing the craftsmanship of the pieces that we now call antiques. Just as Boulle, Chippendale, Hepplewhite and Regency furniture were made to last, the pieces being created now are made and look just as fresh in 2117 as they do today! How do you go about shortlisting the galleries? We’re always looking for the best possible mix, and at the end of a show, we’re talking to the exhibitors who are likely to return. Then we think about material that has either been underrepresented or not represented at all. For example, last year we added one of the world’s great dealers in mid-century glass. This year, seeing a niche, we have added dealer of contemporary glass, meaning we now have good coverage of 20th century and contemporary work in the field. We also consider how people are furnishing their homes. As previously discussed, we have seen an uptick in primary buying of contemporary design that is then accented by vintage pieces, and the show is proportioned accordingly. There’s also the question of what is fun and whimsical. While we take the material we sell seriously, we want our attendees always to find something to smile at. Who do you think would be the show stealers this year? Our returning galleries never fail to surprise us. This year Delorenzo Gallery, known for Art Deco, is bringing mostly contemporary design. Maria Wettegren, who works with contemporary French and Scandinavian designers, is bringing beautiful material, and new exhibitor Stage Projects, who also shows contemporary Scandinavian design, has commissioned pieces especially for The Salon — we can’t wait to see them! David Gill Gallery is showing a glowing globular sculptural chandelier by Barnaby Barford. Patrick Parrish is bringing an assortment of pieces by Carl Auböck that are sculptural and intriguing. Amongst our new exhibitors, Twenty First Gallery brings a table by Marcin Rusak that encases flowers in resin, which is beautiful. Lost City Arts, also exhibiting for the first time, brings amazing Bertoia sculpture and Galerie BSL brings a selection of functional sculptures — referencing exactly the need for elegant, graceful design that also serves a purpose. http://www.blouinartinfo.com/news/story/2654109/interview-jill-bokor-on-the-design-trends-to-watch-out-for-at

Inspiring Objects Abound at The Salon Art + Design Fair 2017 By Ahnna Lee

Through their sheer magnetism, there are particular objects that will motivate your curiosity, at times in surprising ways. This weekend, The Salon Art + Design fair presents a wide variety of potentially piquant design in New York. Its display of furniture, decorative arts, and fine art ranges from historical works by distinguished artists to innovative pieces that employ unexpected materials and techniques from newer artists. Jill Boker, executive director of the Salon, notes that the fair “affords visitors the chance to consider such a mix of paradigms. We’re encouraging people to look at a range of art and objects, almost from a tabula rasa.”

A gathering of 56 galleries can create an uncertain sea of objects, but rest assured, a few newcomers have brought must-see items: Béatrice Saint-Laurent of Paris’s Galerie BSL, at the Salon for the first time, will be featuring a particularly noteworthy piece, Sea Anemone 10, by the gallery’s newest designer, Pia Maria Raeder. It’s an ensemble of brass-finished wall mirrors made of 27,000 beech rods shaped by hand into sculptural forms simulating waves—awe-inspiring craftsmanship at its best.

Another new exhibitor, Etage Projects from Denmark, features clever pieces from Soft Baroque design duo Saša Štucin and Nicholas Gardner: Black nickel-finished exhaust pipes are warped into wall lamps and table vases meant to hold flowers—the clashing nature makes it all the more interesting. Saša adds that they are “playing with ideas about stereotypes in gender aesthetics, material expectations, and shifting values.”

From New York, Demisch Danant will present glass masterpieces from Jacques Dumond, a premier designer of the French modernist movement, and furniture from Philippon & Lecoq, influenced by Dumond, that champions the best of minimalism. Finally, look out for Najla El Zein, a young Lebanese designer whose work is exhibited by major galleries like Carpenters Workshop Gallery and Friedman Benda. At the Salon, she will show pieces from her Distortion bench series that, she says, “treats the theme of distortion within a physical context but also a spatial and emotional one.” There is a juxtaposition between the cold, white concrete bench and the soft, round part of the distortion that Zein intends. It’s inspiring, and as you make your way through the Salon, you’ll notice that this kind of thoughtful, eye-catching design is all around.

From Digital to Deco, Debuts to Classics, All in a Fair’s Embrace By Martha Schwendener

The Salon Art + Design, opening on Friday, is arguably more inclusive than other fairs at the Park Avenue Armory. Art, design and decorative arts can be found here, and the fair organizers stress that everything from high-ticket items to affordable objects for new collectors are on view, with galleries trying to read the taste of millennials with money to spend. This year something new has been added: Digital art is a featured player. And window shopping is definitely encouraged. Some of the booths are set up like art galleries; others, like living rooms. And while the east end of the old Park Avenue Armory twinkles with the interactive digital works, the booths near the entrance are showcasing modern masters like Warren McArthur and Josef Hoffmann. Some of the works here have appeared in museums; others are making their debuts. Here are some highlights from the fair’s 56 galleries.

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/10/arts/design/salon-art-design-fair-armory-review.html

Bernard Goldberg Fine Arts Just inside the entrance, Mr. Goldberg, a New York gallerist, is showing the paintings of Winold Reiss, a German-born American artist who took a holistic approach to art and design. Reiss created paintings, menus and even matchbooks for restaurants like Longchamps, a storied chain in New York. Alongside Reiss’s paintings of the 1930s, the booth has furniture designed during the same period by McArthur, whose wealthy family commissioned a Frank Lloyd Wright house that may have served as an inspiration for it. McArthur embraced the same machinist aesthetic as Reiss and was an Art Deco innovator who was among the first to use aluminum in furniture design. Yves Macaux and Richard Nagy These two dealers have teamed up to create a stellar presentation of Expressionist art and design. Mr. Nagy, a London dealer, has brought drawings by Egon Schiele, featuring nudes in curious positions, as well as a luridly colored portrait of a woman in a green blouse from around 1906, by Kees van Dongen, a Dutch-French painter. A canvas by Ludwig Meidner shows two men scuffling and is graced with the wonderful title “The Incident in the Suburbs” (1915). Mr. Macaux, a Brussels dealer, adds chairs, clocks and other decorative arts to the booth, made by designers like Hoffmann. Several of the objects Mr. Macaux is showing have appeared in New York’s home for Expressionism, the Neue Galerie.

Galerie Maria Wettergren A striking example of contemporary design installed at Maria Wettergren is a sculpture by Mathias Bengtsson, an artist whose work is in the collections of MoMA and the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris. To make his “Growth Chaise Longue” (2017), Mr. Bengtsson used software to “plant” a digital seed in his design program that simulated organic growth. He then created a three-dimensional print of the vinelike results and had it cast in bronze, joining ancient techniques with new ones in a curious and captivating object.

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/10/arts/design/salon-art-design-fair-armory-review.html

“Growth Chaise Longue,” by Mathias Bengtsson, from Galerie Maria Wettergren.

Priveekollektie Contemporary Art | Design Another high-tech presentation is at the Dutch dealer Priveekollektie. Lining the walls of the dark booth are digital and interactive pieces by the British artist Dominic Harris, whose work is currently installed in the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. Using cameras and software, Mr. Harris captures pictures of animals and plants and then tweaks them, displaying the moving images on Ultra High Definition (UHD) screens to create what he calls “living paintings.” The trick is that you can alter the picture somewhat, changing the time of day or the arrangement of flowers in a vase, making still life into something personal and mutable. Joan B. Mirviss Ms. Mirviss, a New York dealer, specializes in Japanese ceramics. The work of Sakiyama Takayuki, who lives on the Izu peninsula, 75 miles from Tokyo — but reachable only by arduous travel — approaches nature in a traditional medium. His abstract, swirling stoneware sculptures, covered with a glaze made from local sand, reflect the movement of wind and waves in his remote habitat. The titles of the works emphasize this: All begin with the word “Choto,” which translates roughly to the echo or sound of the waves.

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/10/arts/design/salon-art-design-fair-armory-review.html

Pierre Marie Giraud More contemporary ceramics, as well as glass and lacquer objects, are found at the booth of this Brussels dealer. Kristin McKirdy makes biomorphic ceramic sculptures, while Jean Girel’s sedate landscape vases are divided into horizontal registers of land, sea or sky — or treat the surface as if it were a hazy Impressionist painting. Giraud also has a roundup of ceramics by Japanese artists, including Yoshiro Kimura’s works with electric-hued glazes; Takuro Kuwata’s crater- and lava-like objects; and Ritsue Mishima’s shimmering glass vessels. Maison Gerard A lavish sofa from 1984 by Pucci de Rossi, the Italian-born Postmodernist, harks back to 19th-century Orientalist art and design, with a mash-up of references and materials, including velvet, hidden compartments and marbled wood and inlaid marquetry. Gerardalso has a commode made for the fashion designer Jean Patou, and a carved coffee table by Michael Coffey with a lazy Susan inside. Mr. Coffey appears more prominently in Amy Lau’s booth.

Amy Lau Design An interior designer rather than a gallerist, Ms. Lauhas created a complete environment in her booth, emphasizing “atmosphere” (the booth has that title) as much as individual objects. Ms. Lau is showcasing a massive wooden fireplace hand-carved by Mr. Coffey, with a bronze fireplace screen with porcelain accents designed by David Wiseman of Los Angeles. Ms. Lau’s booth pays homage to Art Nouveau, with its sinuous lines and botanical references. In a fair that is filled with a range of periods and sources, it’s a good lesson in how to make objects play together harmoniously, with neither art nor design dominating.

Featured artists include Carl Auböck, Hervé Langlais, Kam Tin, Zhipeng Tan, Pierre Gonalons and more. In addition to avoiding the packed crowds at the annual art show, the online destination allows users to filter the curated products by price, color, creator and dealer.
