Black-and-white photography by Richard Avedon Frank Pinocchio George Barrows and Hans Van Nes. Original brown and white boards. A classic piece of Bauhaus-inspired 1950s design: Scarce contemporary furniture catalogue from the firm of the Danish American designer Jens Risom including some of Richard Avedon's earliest commercial work. Jens Risom was one of the first designers to introduce Scandinavian design in the United States. He teamed with Hans Knoll to launch the Hans Knoll Furniture Company in 1942 and designed 15 of its 20 inaugural pieces. Drafted during the war Risom served under General George S. Patton after which he briefly returned to Knoll. Risom launched his own firm in 1946 and ran ads throughout the 1950s using the slogan "The Answer is Risom" and complimented by Avedon's images. The success of the campaign allowed Risom to enhance its production facilities in 1954 and this catalog was published at the beginning of this expansion. In the late 1950s Avedon grew tired of open air shooting and concentrated his practice in the studio. <br/><br/> Jens Risom Design hardcover
