Oscar Niemeyer Mid-Century Modern Rare "Aran" Lounge Chair Oscar Niemeyer, 1970s

Product Details

Product Description

. The rare "Aran" Lounge chair by Oscar Niemeyer, created in 1975, embodies the architect's signature modernist style characterized by fluid, curvilinear forms. Niemeyer's design philosophy focuses on the power of architecture and design to drive progress forward, resulting in an almost poetic quality in his buildings and furniture. Born into an upper-middle-class family, Niemeyer began his career working for L√∫cio Costa, a fellow modernist architect in Brazil. Through his work on the Ministry of Education and Health building in Rio, Niemeyer absorbed lessons from famed architect Le Corbusier on creating structural lightness in large buildings, although he ultimately rejected Corbusier's emphasis on geometric forms in favor of his own preference for organic curves. The chair is in good condition overall.
