Rietveld's Chair

Format: Paperback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £36.07
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

The Red-Blue Chair by furniture designer and architect Gerrit Rietveld belongs, along with the 'Barcelona Chair' by Mies van der Rohe and the 'Chaise Longue' by Le Corbusier, to the most famous pieces of modern furniture in the world. Since 2006 the'Red-Blue Chair' has figured as the visual icon of 'De Stijl' in the canon of Dutch history. The chair is found in important museum collections all over the world. Rietveld's Chair is the result of an investigation into the genesis and development, use and reception of this modern classic by art historian Marijke Kuper. The book presents new facts and visual materials as well as an overview of all the prewar examples of the chair discovered thus far. It is an openended overview, because there is still a chance that an unknown original model of the'Red-Blue Chair', or one presumed lost, could suddenly surface somewhere. Exhibition: Central Museum, Utrecht (20.10.2010-11.01.2011).
