Receiving
Martino Gamper at Wright, Chicago
From the 14th through the 17th of May 2008, Wright welcomed designer, innovator and mastermind Martino Gamper to Chicago. Gamper created a series of unique and functional pieces of furniture for Wright’s auction room utilizing cast-off shipping materials, crates, and discarded furniture and objects found in Wright’s warehouse. Part performance, part workshop, Gamper’s process welcomed experimentation, spontaneity and interaction: Gamper’s on-site studio was open to the public so that visitors could watch while he worked.
