POUL KJÆRHOLM (Denmark, 1929 - 1980) for FRITZ HANSEN. PK-22 lounge chair, designed 1955. Steel frame. Upholstered in black leather. Made at Fritz Hansen in 1991, with label from here. Shows minor signs of wear and patina due to age. Measurements: 72 x 63 x 62 cm. Seat height 33 cm. The PK22 series of chairs are excellent examples of Poul Kjaerholm's ability to work with exquisite, minimalist materials. In the search for the ideal form they were created in a combination of elegant luxury and comfort. Poul Kjærholm was a Danish designer trained at the Danish School of Arts and Crafts in Copenhagen, where he entered in 1952 after having started his apprenticeship with the cabinetmaker Gronbech in 1948. From the mid-1950s he worked for his friend EjvindKoldChristiansen, a businessman who always gave him total creative freedom. His earliest creations, such as his plywood furniture series PKO, already reveal his strong personality. In 1958 he attracted international attention with his contribution to the "Formes Scandinaves" exhibition in Paris, and in the same year he won the Lunning Prize for his PK 22 chair. In 1957 and 1960 he was awarded the Grand Prix at the Milan Triennale, and in 1959 he was admitted to the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. In 1973 he was appointed director of the Danish Design Institute, where he taught from 1976.

Atelier by JEAN PROUVÉ (France, 1901-1984). Bureau table. Surveillant’ model, ca. 1950s. Oak. Measurements: 79 x 130 x 65 cm. This table, model Surveillant (‘supervisor’) denotes the mastery of the teaching of the great French designer Jean Prouvé, both for the functional essentiality of the design and for the handcrafted and natural character of the finish. Prouvé had the generosity to spread his knowledge and create a school, since he founded his Ateliers in the 1930s. Jean Prouvé collaborated on the furniture in his Ateliers from the idea to the finished product. Equipped with a skilled creative team and the most advanced manufacturing technologies available, the Ateliers were laboratories where ideas were continually refined and adapted to produce furniture and prefabricated buildings on an industrial scale. The son of the modernist cabinetmaker Victor Prouvé, he was a prolific builder, designer and engineer. In Paris, he trained as an artistic blacksmith with Emile Robert, Enghien and Szabo in Paris. In 1924, he opened his own workshop in Nancy. As early as 1925, he produced the first furniture in formed sheet steel. In 1930 he co-founded the artists' association “Union des Artistes Modernes”. In 1931 he founded Les Ateliers Jean Prouvé. During the 1930s, these workshops produced numerous pieces of furniture and the first prefabricated architectural elements, for example for the ‘Maison du Peuple’ in Clichy, which attracted a great deal of attention with its steel and glass structure. Due to the shortage of steel, wooden furniture was made during the war and simple houses were developed from prefabricated elements. From 1940, Jean Prouvé was a member of the Resistance and became mayor of Nancy after the liberation of the city. During this period, he designed and built housing for the homeless. In 1947, Jean Prouvé founded the Maxéville factory. Between 1957 and 1968, he directed the construction department of the Compagnie Industrielle de Matériel de Transport in Paris. Between 1968 and 1984, he ran a studio in Paris as an independent consultant architect. From 1957 to 1970 he holds a chair at the Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers. In 1971 he chairs the jury for the competition for the construction of the Pompidou Centre in Paris and contributes to the choice of the design by Renzo Piano and Richard Rogers. Between 1980 and 1984, he devoted himself to perfecting his furniture designs. In many of his works, Prouvé succeeds in combining his pretensions to functionality, suitability of materials and economy with the complex requirements of mass production. In 2002, Vitra begins to reissue his designs in collaboration with the Prouvé family.
