GAMPER, Martino
BEFORE, AFTER & BEYOND

More Gamper ! <3

“Over the last few months, we have immersed ourselves in [Martino Gamper’s] archive; to discover new and rediscover familiar pieces; to discuss, and to gain a better understanding of his design and creative process. The focus of our conversations has been on quality; quality of work, life, time, research, food, family and friends. This focus informed our selection of pieces, and the grouping of themes, to reach the final edit of chairs, tables, ‘Chables,’ cabinets, screens, shelves, mirrors, vases, beds, desks, lights, hooks, books and more. The idea was to fully embrace the journey so far, in order to navigate and prioritise what the future should and can become.“
—from the foreword by curator Sarah Douglas

Made for the occasion of the eponymous show of Gamper’s work at 11 Mansfield Street, London, this book was edited by Gamper, Kajsa of Åbäke, Francis Upritchard and Sarah Douglas. It comprises a conversation between Gamper and Alice Rawsthorn.
