R & COMPANY: 20 YEARS OF DISCOVERY.

For the past twenty years, New York-based design gallery R & Company has been a pioneer in discovering, curating, archiving, and presenting rare, exceptional, and iconic works to individuals and institutions. Through their groundbreaking exhibitions and publications, the gallery has been at the forefront of the collectible design movement. Published on the occasion of R & CompanyÆs twentieth anniversary, this book offers new critical perspectives on the designers, themes, and emerging trends R & Company has uncovered, re-discovered, and elevated, including: the emergence of a market for Brazilian design; the championing of un-heralded American mid-century masters; the fostering of a material-focused contemporary design program; and the galleryÆs passion for so-called ôdifficultö design. Unfolding through essays from leading writers on art, design, and craft, and illustrated by hundreds of archival, new, and behind-the-scenes gallery images, interior photos of collectorsÆ homes, and designersÆ studios, it is a dynamic overview of the design marketÆs explosive past two decades, and its vibrant future.
