Bench by Zaha Hadid USA, 2003 Cast and enamel in aluminum
H 40 W 180 D 55
Working Proof Tallix Art Foundry
USA 2003

  This working, foundry proof is the first precursor to Zaha Hadid's Bench, subsequently produced by Max Protetch in an edition of twelve. This original form was cast in California at ADM and produced by Tallix Art Foundry in 2003. As the form reached its final stages of production, yet to be patinized, the computer-generated version was refined. The refined edition of twelve (aside from two artist's proofs) produced by Max Protetch differ from this original in form and finish. Lee Balter, owner of Tallix Art Foundry, purchased this example from Max Protetch in 2004. Tallix later produced the Bench displayed at Zaha Hadid, the 2006 exhibit held at the Solomon R. Guggenheim museum. Sold with a photocopy of the original bill of sale from Max Protetch, Inc.

Rocking Chair by Jack Rogers Hopkins

branded JACK/ROGERS/HOPKINS

Domestically proportioned pieces by Jack Rogers Hopkins are exceedingly scarce and highly sought after. Hopkins is an important and influential sculptor/furniture designer who helped defined the California design scene in the 70’s. He mastered laminated wood and applied it to never seen before forms. Although Hopkins created other chairs, this is an exceptional and unique piece. The Rocking Chair simultaneously pays homage to one of the most cherished American pieces of furniture while realizing the form in a creative and dynamic manner. Despite the form’s ingenuity and presence, it is surprisingly comfortable.
