Plain Clay Stool by Maarten Baas

In Milan the Salone 2012 starts today. I had plans to visit the Salone, but have postponed them until next year. Just too busy with other stuff.

Maarten Baas will show these new pieces of his Plain Clay furniture collection in Ventura Lambrata. Photo’s Frank Tieleman.

The series is now named Plain Clay as the production process has changed after Maarten has made several pieces for the Groninger Museum (The museum for modern art in the city of Groningen, The Netherlands). They are now better withstanding public (ab)use.

Empty Chair by Maarten Baas at Movies that Matter

The Empty Chair that Maarten Baas made for Amnesty International was prominently displayed at the opening of the Movies That Matter Film Festival in The Hague yesterday. That’s not so strange as it seems. Originally the name of this Film Festival was Amnesty International Film Festival and Amnesty International is still the festival’s main sponsor.

The Making of a Smoke Chair

After the nice photo of Angelina Jolie in a Smoke Chair, now a poetic video of the making of a Smoke Chair by Maarten Baas which disappeared in the meantime.

But I found another one:

Finally the word is out: Production of the More or Less Chair by Maarten Baas has been started by NGispeN. The special effect is that there is almost no chair the same in the series as there are a number of different backs and seatings you will notice if you look at the 4 photos (by Chris van Koeverden) closely.
