His design is searched for by collectors all over the world and fetch high prices at major auction houses. Verner Panton was an artist in the true sense of the word. He did not have the creative obstructions that adults get accustomed too when they grow up. Instead he created his own wonderland through the eyes of a child. His design was consistently brilliant, he created sensual shaped furniture in vibrant colors and even added sound and smell to his interior projects so one could become completely one with his surroundings. He was first to create inflatable furniture, pioneered with the much acclaimed single molded plastic chair and refused to accept gravity by creating the Flying Chair. Panton envisioned a colorful future. His career was highlighted by the Visiona Landscapes he created for Bayer AG in 1968 and 1970 that have now achieved cult status. This book is a profusely illustrated with hundreds of full color pictures that document his fairy tale interiors.

She died in 1964, and I thought of her as one of those boring writers whom only the literary elitist types found engaging. But boy was I wrong. Every single short story was packed with strong, interesting characters, a clever plot with surprising twists that stays with one far after the story is finishes. Try reading "A Good Man Is Hard to Find," or "Everything that Rises Must Converge," and not being effected. She has moved up to near the top of my pantheon of authors. I only regret she did not survive her Lupus affliction. She would have been only 84 years old, and the best writer alive. |
