EXHIBITION STATEMENT
Carpenters Workshop Gallery returns to Design Miami/ Basel 2022, presenting key works by some of the gallery’s longest-standing artists, including Roger Herman, Wendell Castle, Ingrid Donat and Atelier van Lieshout.
Maarten Baas leads the exhibition with two new editions of his Bronze chairs, displayed alongside one of the largest iterations of his Real Time clocks. Real Time XL The Artist features Baas himself as the protagonist of the time-keeping performance, and was exhibited as part of the show DYSFUNCTIONAL at the 2019 Venice Biennale.
Beirut based duo david/nicolas reveal a new CO80 table in a Persian red travertino marble. In their Constellation series, david/nicolas draw inspiration from the stars, space travel, and the mysteries of the universe. The CO80 table characterises the duo’s retro-futurist aesthetic, with its layered marble veins resembling the surface of an alien planet.
Other highlights include a new unique console from Vincenzo de Cotiis’ latest collection Interlude, as well as Andrea Branzi’s monochrome, minimalist cabinet, Stone 2A. Two large light sculptures from Nacho Carbonell and Stuart Haygarth are also exhibited, filling their environments with light and colour.
