Note du spécialiste
From the production of six, this is the only remaining example to have been retained by the studio.
The following nine lots are a selected group curated by the Ingo Maurer Studio to represent the breadth of his work and celebrate his important contribution to lighting design over the last 50 years. Since the 1960s Ingo Maurer has built an international reputation for constant innovation in lighting and lighting installations. After a brief foray in the United States in the early 1960s, Maurer returned to his native Germany and his first design, ‘Bulb’ (1966), immediately won recognition as part of the Pop Art movement in its playful exploration of the expressive potential of an object from everyday life. Since then he has exhibited internationally with solo-shows at the Fondation Cartier, Paris (1989); Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam (1993); Museum SantaMòniCA, Barcelona (2001); Vitra Design Museum, Weil, Germany (2002/03); Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum, New York (2007) and Fondazione Carsipe, La Spezia, Italy (2008).
