RICK OWENS FURNITURE PAMPHLET + KALEIDOSCOPE ZINE

1996

Organized by MOCA, Rick Owens: Furniture, was being billed as Owens’ first U.S. museum show of furniture and sculpture. Best known for the iconic, eponymous clothing label he started in Los Angeles in 1994, Owens has consistently drawn inspiration for his fashion collections and sculptural furniture from a vast array of art historical sources that span modernist design, brutalist architecture, monochrome painting, minimal art, and avant-garde dance.

Rick Owens: Furniture was organized in close collaboration with Michèle Lamy, Owen's longtime partner and the primary creative force and producer of the furniture line. Owens sketches the furniture, and Lamy chooses and sources the materials and oversees fabrication.
