MONEY MAKES THE ROUND WORLD GO ROUND
The Cantilever chair came from a private collector who, Draxler asserts, was one of the first to recognize Colani’s furniture as collectible. The lot coincided with two of his other pieces—a voluminous TV-Relax chair and a plaster sculpture of a headless female nude. All three sold healthily, with this chair going for the highest price. According to Draxler, it went to a private col- lector based in Hong Kong who has “public intentions” for it. With its bold flair, we all hope to see it around. “Now the time is ready to discover this special artist with an enormous range of design,” Draxler says.
