Rick Kaufmann’s Art et Industrie gallery in SoHo blurred the lines between art and furniture, showcasing works that confused and challenged traditional definitions of both.
Howard Meister’s 'Learning Her Lie' chair, with a fracture running through it, and 'Juvenile Offender', resembling an explosion, exemplified how Kaufmann’s gallery pushed the boundaries of functional art.
Michele Oka Doner’s 'Terrible Chair' showcased the intersection of art and discomfort, indicating a shift in the gallery’s focus towards pieces questioning the purpose and usability of design.
Forrest Myers’ minimalist sculptures contrasted sharply with the vibrant city, as seen in his installation 'The Wall', which was a testament to the evolution of public art in the urban landscape.
