Armchair by Heinz Frank-P1030910

Unexpectedly I was in Vienna a couple of days where I could take some chair photos. A couple in the Dorotheum where an auction of modern Austrian design was held at Leap Day….until I was forbidden to take photos by a attendant and I didn’t want to go through the hassle of obtaining a press permit.

Armchair by Heinz Frank. Heinz must love horses;-)

Austria, 1972/73, nickel plated tubular steel, red leather, red lacquered iron plate, coil springs, height 77 cm, width 70.5 cm, depth 70 cm, height of seat 35 cm. (DR) A unique piece. Provenance: acquired from the artist in the 1970s – private property Vienna.

Estimated at EUR 6.000,- to 7.000,- (USD 8.500,- to 9.900,-) subject to artist surcharge. The chair was not sold.

Via Dorotheum.

There are only a few chairs by J.J.P. Oud I know of.
Therefore I’m glad when I find some.
