Salon 94
Since 2002, Salon 94 has hosted exhibitions of innovative art and design. In addition to representing the work of emerging and renowned artists, Salon 94 produces exhibitions that challenge traditional boundaries between fine art, functional objects and the decorative arts.
Salon 94 is committed to the work of both young and established designers. In 2004, Salon 94 began to work with the Casa Mollino showing Carlo Mollino’s infamous 1960s Polaroids. Following, they highlighted the architecture and furniture of Casa del Sole, Mollino’s modern alpine design in Cervinia, Italy. In 2008, the gallery invited London-based furniture and product designer Martino Gamper to re-assemble discarded and salvaged chairs from Mollino’s Lutrario Ballroom.
Along with the Estate of Carlo Mollino, the gallery represents contemporary designers Kueng Caputo, ceramicist Betty Woodman, landscape designer Paula Hayes and the ceramics of Takuro Kuwata as well as the furniture of Rick Owens.
It has also exhibited Sebastian Errazuriz, Karl Fritsch, Martino Gamper, Takeshi Miyakawa and Kara Hamilton jewelry.
Salon 94 collaborates with renowned luminaries in other fields to produce new furniture and design. Recently Salon94 curated an exhibition of contemporary ceramics that included a store of objects, jewelry, dishware and functional objects. They co-organized with Londonbased fashion designer Duro Olowu a show and popup shop featuring his couture as well as photography, textiles, contemporary art, furniture, music, books and objets trouvés.
This past fall Salon 94 mounted Show and Tell: Calder Jewelry and Mobiles.
In 2010, in collaboration with Rudy Weissenberg, Salon 94 presented a bedroom interior composed of the brutalist, luxurious furniture of Paris-based fashion designer, Rick Owens. They have collaborated at two Design Miami/ Basel fairs and a solo show in New York for Kueng Caputo.
