For the past twenty years, New York-based design gallery 'R & Company' has been a pioneer in discovering, curating, archiving and presenting rare, exceptional, and iconic works to individuals and institutions. Through their groundbreaking exhibitions and publications, the gallery has been at the forefront of the collectible design movement. Published on the occasion of 'R & Company's' twentieth anniversary, this book offers new critical perspectives on the designers, themes, and emerging trends 'R & Company' has uncovered, rediscovered, and elevated, including the emergence of a market for Brazilian design, the championing of un-heralded American mid-century masters, the fostering of a material-focused contemporary design program and the gallery's passion for so-called 'difficult' design.
