Frank Gehry (Canadian, b. 1929), Power Play Chair
Lot Details & Additional Photographs
Knoll, dated 1999, maple bentwood frame, labeled.

33 x 32 x 30 in.

Inspired by the surprising strength of the apple crates he played on as a child, Frank Gehry created his thoroughly original collection of bentwood furniture. The ribbon-like designs transcend the conventions of style by exploring, as the great modernists did, the essential challenge of deriving form from function.

Overall good condition; some minor scuffs to the arms; some joints with expected re-glue or dried/failing glue.
