HD21 DECORATIVE ARTS

HD21 Decorative Art is represented by the wood naturalism of Jan de Swart and the punchy geometric graphics of Luke Lietzke to the slick fluid metal style of the Italian designer Lino Sabattini and the avant-garde designs of the fashion jetsetter Pierre Cardin in the 1970’s. In Italy, the art of ceramic is expressed through the playful designs of Guido Gambone contrasting with the sculptural “futurist” forms of Salvatore Meli and the colorful world of Italian Murano glass is explored through Venini, Flavio Poli, Archimede Seguso and many others. The Memphis movement of the 1980’s and its influence is explored in the work of Ettore Sottsass, Nathalie du Pasquier and the American ceramist Peter Shire. Other American ceramicists featured are Aaron Bohrod, the incredible “Feelies” of Rose Cabat and the organic shapes of Eva Zeisel. 1990’s feature the work of industrial silver designs by the “über” talented Wolfgang Gessl, Lars Hakansson, the eccentric forms of Marco Zanini and the final hour is punctuated in a liquid resin expression of Gaetano Pesce.
