Description
Richard Artschwager (NY 1923-2013). Fine bench made desk in walnut. An iconic piece of mid century furniture design. Measures: 60" W x 24" D x 29" H Unmarked. Artschwager started his career designing and making furniture. He had a number of commissions early in his career and had success exhibiting and selling his work. A fire at his workshop in 1958 caused him to re-examine his work and led him to work in other artistic mediums, e.g. painting and sculpure design. Circa late 1950's/early 1960's. Provenance: A private NY collection. See William Jenack sales 1.8.2017 lot 83, and 9.20.2015 lot 60, for examples from the same collection.
