‎RORSTRAND, Art Nouveau Porcelain from Sweden. Rorstrand‎

‎, arnoldsche, 2011 224 pages, 24.5 x 31 cm, 200 colour illustrations. 30 black and white illustrations, 60 two-tone illustrations. Hardcover with dust jacket. Text in English and German. 148 objects from the Collection Hans Schmidts. ISBN 9783897903418.‎

‎The appearance of the Rorstrand porcelain factory from Stockholm at the 1900 world exhibition in Paris was brilliant: the world had never seen such expert handling of porcelain mass ? some in the form of waferthin petals ? and an underglaze colour palette with such subtle nuances. The critics were full of praise and the economic success was soon to follow. The foundation for this laid in the cooperation between Rorstrand and the painter Alf Wallander, who had worked for the manufacturer from 1894/1895. By 1896 Rorstrand had his first big success with the porcelain designed by Wallander at exhibitions in Stockholm, Malmo and Gothenburg. Its artistic rise finally began in 1897 with the Art and Industry Exposition in Stockholm and found its crowning moment in Paris, the International Exhibition of Modern Art in Turin in 1902 and the World Exhibition in St. Louis in 1904. Rorstrand could now compete on an international level alongside the two significant Danish manufacturers Royal Copenhagen and Bing‎

‎Walter Knoll The Furniture Brand of Modernity‎

‎Hardcover, 352 pages Illustrated. 32 x 25 cm . ENGLISH ISBN 9783961711796. A vivid company biography of leading furniture manufacturer Walter Knoll based on its formative figures Wilhelm, Hans, and Walter Knoll and, for more than 25 years to date, Markus Benz. Walter Knoll, the book, charts the more than one-and-a-half-century-old history of this remarkable furniture dynasty, tracing the evolution of its designs in relation to key cultural and historical developments. When the Thomas Mann House in Los Angeles was recently bought by the Federal Republic of Germany and transformed into a representative transatlantic meeting place, it was Walter Knoll furnishings that defined its interior design and showcased German creativity and economic-cultural performance. Based in Herrenberg, near Stuttgart, the more than 150-year-old furniture business is one of the most successful furniture companies of the modern era and a global leader in the high-end furnishings segment. Walter Knoll's impressively long history dates back to Wilhelm Knoll, the founding father of the Knoll dynasty, who first set up a leather shop in Stuttgart in 1865. Knoll rose from being a tanner and merchant to the court purveyor to the House of Wurttemberg. When his sons, Willy and Walter, took over the company in 1907, they began producing seating-introducing the first club armchair to Germany and becoming the industry's first exporter. Their advances marked a revolution in upholstered furniture. After founding his own company in the 1920s, Walter Knoll was a breakout sensation in the avant-garde interior design world with a landmark exhibition at the Weissenhof Estate in Stuttgart, under the direction of Mies van der Rohe, in 1927. His son, Hans Knoll, went to the U.S. in the 1930s and himself founded his own company, Knoll Inc., and with it, re-wrote design history. In 1993, Markus Benz, the son of Rolf Benz, joined the Knoll ranks, continuing the successful cooperation with internationally-renowned architects and designers.‎

‎Bertoia The Metalworker‎

‎, Phaidon Press, 2018 Hardcover 280 pages, english text. ISBN 9780714878072.‎

‎A celebration of the rich and varied work of Italian-born American artist, designer, and master of metal, Harry Bertoia From chapel altarpieces and bronze fountains, to wire chairs and silver brooches, Harry Bertoia's creative output was varied in the extreme. This new book explores his entire career: his move from Italy to Detroit at 15; his formative years at Cranbrook; his work with Charles Eames and Knoll; through to his fascinating sound sculptures. In doing so, the book demonstrates how seemingly disparate works are in fact united in being reflections of nature, and places Bertoia's art squarely at the heart of American modernism.‎
