About The Designer:VLADIMIR KAGAN
Vladimir Kagan was born in Worms on the Rhine, Germany, in 1927 and passed away in 2016. Kagan's career positions it as one of America's most celebrated designers for over sixty years. The European Magazine says: "Vladimir Kagan is one of the most important furniture designers of the 20th century. He designed furniture in the forties, fifties, and sixties, becoming an icon of Modernity and an obligatory reference to every designer. He is the creative grandfather of a whole new generation of designers." He studied Architecture at Columbia University and, in 1947, joined his father, Illi Kagan, a master cabinetmaker, to work in his woodworking shop and learn furniture making from the ground up. His Midcentury modern furniture with "Sinuous wooden frame characteristics" has a contemporary feel. His style, inspired by everything from antiques and nature to the Bauhaus, emphasizes comfort and functionality. He exposes designs with upholstery, wrought iron, cast aluminum, and especially organically sculpted wood in works that became hallmarks of his career. For all his aesthetic élan, Kagan said that throughout his career, his touchstone was comfort. "A lot of modern furniture was not comfortable. And so comfort is: form follows function. The function was to make it comfortable," he once commented. "I created what I called vessels for the human body."
