Iovine, Julie V ; Merrill, Todd.
Modern Americana : studio furniture from high craft to high glam
Folio in color illus jacket; 271 pages : illustrations (some color) ; 31 cm ; bibliographical references (pages 268-270). Excellent color photo reproductions of some of the finisest furniture designers and makers in the US. The book covers quite a spectrum! Remarkable. || "In the current world of twentieth-century design collecting, the trend has shifted away from accessible, mass manufactured modernist furniture and toward designs that were custom-made or produced in very limited editions, with emphasis on American studio design of the 1940s to the 1990s. In contrast to the mass produced mid-century furniture by Knoll and Herman Miller, American studio designs of the same period focused on novel forms and exquisite craftsmanship. Ranging from the organic shapes of George Nakashima and Vladimir Kagan to metalworks by Paul Evans, these limited production designs were highly sought after in their days by original tastemakers and movie stars. In the last decade, a revival for these rare designs began with connoisseurs such as Tom Ford." "Modern Americana is the first full survey of the designs of this prolific but forgotten period, bringing to life again the works of Samuel Marx, Billy Haines, Wendell Castle, T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings, Karl Springer, James Mont, and many others."--Jacket. || Contents: The studio artisans: J.B. Blunk -- Wendell Castle -- Michael Coffey -- Wharton Esherick -- Arthur Espenet Carpenter -- Sam Maloof -- Jack Rogers Hopkins -- The designer craftsmen: Paul Evans & Philip Lloyd Powell -- Vladimir Kagan -- George Nakashima -- Silas Seandel -- The custom designers: Charles Hollis Jones -- Philip & Kelvin LaVerne -- James Mont -- Tommi Parzinger -- Harvey Probber -- T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings -- Karl Springer -- Edward Wormley -- The decorator-designers: John Dickinson -- Arthur Elrod -- William Haines -- Paul Laszlo -- Samuel Marx. || Furniture design -- United States -- History -- 20th century.
