VLADIMIR KAGAN (Worms, Germany, 1927-Florida, USA, 2016) for Fendi. Swivel armchair "Broadway", New York, 1950s-60s. Leather and metal. With metal plate by Kagan. Fendi edition. Presents marks of use and slight flaws. Measurements: 70 x 96 x 92 cm. In his Broadway collection, the successful creator Vladimir Kagan defends a design of clear lines, of great cleanliness and amplitude, denoting a distinctly modern formal purification. Although of German origin, Vladimir Kagan grew up in the United States. He studied architecture at Columbia University before joining the New York carpentry shop of his father, master cabinetmaker and art collector Illi Kagan. Between 1950 and 1960, Kagan partnered with textile designer and printer Hugo Dreyfuss. Kagan's decidedly modern, sculptural furniture met with rapid success. His projects include the cocktail lounges for delegates at the first United Nations headquarters in Lake Success, New York (1947-48); the curvaceous Serpentine sofa (1949); and the iconic Omnibus seating collection (c. 1970), among others. From 1990 to 1992 he was president of the New York chapter of the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID). In 1998 he reintroduced some of his classic designs at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) in New York, formally relaunching his career. In 2008, he launched the Vladimir Kagan Couture Collection, which includes a selection of designs from the 1950s through the 21st century. And in 2015, Kagan designed a collection of limited-edition art furniture for Carpenters Workshop. The designer's work is in numerous private and public collections, including the Vitra Design Museum in Weil am Rhein, Germany, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, Die Neue Sammlung in Munich, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, among others. In 1980, the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York paid tribute to Kagan with a thirty-year retrospective exhibition: Vladimir Kagan: Three Decades of Design. In 2002, the Brooklyn Museum of Art presented him with a Lifetime Achievement Award; in 2001, the Pinnacle Award from the American Society of Furniture Designers; and in 2000, the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Society of Furniture Designers.
