King Bonk - David Gill Galleries
15th September - 19th October 2008
3 Loughborough Street
London
King Bonk is an exhibition of work by London-based designers Fredrikson Stallard. The show will feature the duo's newest designs, the King Bonk chair and footstool - remarkable hand-crafted pieces in a limited edition of eight pairs.
The shape of this sculptural piece, with its reflective dichroic paint finish, developed by Bentley, was derived from tying up upholstery foam with string, and named after the biggest marble in the school playground. The original full-size form was carved with a chainsaw in polystyrene and has apparently never come close to a computer.
More work will be on show at David Gill's Fulham Road gallery.
