Eames Chair
Illustration, Mike Perry, USA
Limited edition 50 pieces
Appearing at the Walker Art Center Oct 22, 2011 - January 2012
Well known New York illustrator Mike Perry applies his original style to the classic lines and form of the Eames Eiffel chair. Mike’s unique drawings have been commissioned for objects as diverse as Nike shoes and bags, Lomo camera, and De’Longhi coffee maker Artista series.
These chairs are drawn on by hand, by Mike, using indelible inks and his special touch. The hand drawing ensures that each chair is absolutely unique. All pieces in this collectable series are signed and numbered.
Available in the classic shell chair, the rocker armchair or wooden dowel legs version (more suited to indoors). These are the authentic original Eames design with updated, eco-friendly materials and manufacturing. We love classic black and white but you may have another idea. The chairs are now available in a kaleidoscope of colors from Herman Miller. (www.hermanmiller.com/Products/Eames-Molded-Plastic-Chairs) The illustrations appear on the back and bottom side of the chair creating a clean and modern contrast.
