For the past twenty years, New York-based design gallery R & Company has been a pioneer in discovering, curating, archiving, and presenting rare, exceptional, and iconic works to individuals and institutions. Through their groundbreaking exhibitions and publications, the gallery has been at the forefront of the collectible design movement. Published on the occasion of R & Company’s twentieth anniversary, this book offers new critical perspectives on the designers, themes, and emerging trends R & Company has uncovered, re-discovered, and elevated, including: the emergence of a market for Brazilian design; the championing of un-heralded American mid-century masters; the fostering of a material-focused contemporary design program; and the gallery’s passion for so-called “difficult” design. Unfolding through essays from leading writers on art, design, and craft, and illustrated by hundreds of archival, new, and behind-the-scenes gallery images, interior photos of collectors’ homes, and designers’ studios, it is a dynamic overview of the design market’s explosive past two decades, and its vibrant future. Featured designers include Wendell Castle, Rogan Gregory, Greta Magnusson Grossman, The Haas Brothers, Verner Panton, Sergio Rodrigues, Katie Stout, Studio65, Joaquim Tenreiro, Thaddeus Wolfe, Jeff Zimmerman and many more. :

In the winter of 1996-97, four Swedish and two British artists took part in an exhibition with Torbjörn Lenskog’s collection of 20th century products at the Swedish National Museum of Art. The collection was the result of a passionate design expert’s taste for the looks of industrial modernism. But it also provided a telling example of the difficulties of classifying design into styles, epochs, and ideals. Various interviews in this work address everything from the mentality of collecting, through modernism’s ideologies of purity and cleanliness, to the cultural malleability of industrial products. This CD-ROM is a short encyclopedic text for historical design. Included are two CD-ROMs with 60 documentary film clips, 400 photos, and 100 Quicktime VR Objects, as well as one 45 RPM LP containing music.
