Art & Design is a celebration of the collaborations at the intersection of the applied and fine arts. Design in the 20th

century is in many ways a repudiation of these distinctions and a conscious effort to inject objects with an ethic of purpose that rejects tradition. Yet, aesthetic anachronisms from an earlier era are often retained. The works presented in this sale represent encounters between architects, woodworkers, engineers, graphic artists, ceramicists, glassblowers, and the like; each trying their hand at a set of design problems. It is also a salute to the collaborations between these masters, such as the “Trumeau Architettura” (lot 14), an iconic piece of mid-20th century design and the result of a successful partnership between the Milanese architect Gio Ponti and his fellow countryman, the imaginative graphic artist and designer Piero Fornasetti. The work of other Italian luminaries including Melchiorre Bega, Pietro Melandri, Carlo di Carli, and Ettore Sottsass reflect the important influence of architecture on the history of global design in the 20th century. In America, designers working in the environs of New Hope and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania like George Nakashima, Wharton Esherick, and Paul Evans each approached furniture design from a distinct, uncompromising,

and heroic viewpoint. George Nakashima came of age in Tokyo, Paris, and Pondicherry, India. His works reflect his training as an architect and the enormous influence of the International Style. Most significantly, Nakashima’s methods retained Japanese craft traditions in the service of an ethic rooted in the natural world, not an attempt to overcome or transcend it. By contrast, Wharton Esherick’s explorations in wood were those of an artist’s whose experimentation with philosophy, literature, dance, music, and art brought him to this medium as a means toward an end. One gets the feeling from looking at Esherick’s furniture that it was made only as fast as his hands would allow; many thoughts carving their way onto his wood surfaces, creating a built- environment of ideas. Paul Evans was of a similar artistic bend, but found his voice through metalwork. He approached furniture, as design historian Dr. Edward S. Cooke has suggested, from the perspective of a fashion designer, driven by trend-setting and an ever-changing consumer base with a taste for “what’s next”. Examples of his Cityscape, Patchwork, and Sculptured Metal series are all represented herein. We are pleased to present all these works for your consideration as part of our inaugural Art & Design auction.

Weegee (American, 1899-1968)The Collection of Hugh & Suzanne Johnston

Hugh and Suzanne Johnston had been working at Industrial Design magazine and

were burgeoning filmmakers when they met Weegee in 1956. Their meeting

coincided with a turning point in Weegee’s career, as he had become disillusioned

with the news pictures that had made him famous, and had instead delved into a

new realm of image distortions and manipulations. Admiring their graphic design

and editorial backgrounds, he worked with and developed a close friendship with the

Johnstons. Throughout their time with Weegee, the Johnstons were gifted

photographs from all periods of his work, including rare color transparencies of

images that were unknown to the public. In Suzanne’s own words, “we all leave our

trails behind us, and mine was enhanced and deepened when it crossed with

Weegee’s.”

Lots bear their collection hand stamp where indicated.

Where the Consignor is indebted to Freeman’s, Freeman’s may have an interest in the offered lots and the proceeds therefrom, other than the broker’s Commissions, and all sales are subject to any such interest.

6The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the buyer. The auctioneer has the right to reject any bid, to advance the bidding at his absolute discretion and in the event of any dispute between bidders, the auctioneer shall have the sole and final discretion either to determine the successful bidder or to re- offer and resell the article in dispute. If any dispute arises after sale, the Freeman’s sale record shall be conclusive in all respects.
