Svelte and seductive, the Spine chair, shown on the cover of this
book, is one of the most renowned objects in contemporary design.
Its creator, Andre Dubreuil, after initially pursuing a career of
antique dealer and a painter-decorator, became one of the leading
figures of new English design in the mid-1980s, with Mark
Brazier-Jones and Tom Dixon. After first working his magic on the
rebar, Dubreuil tackled traditional forms, breathing new life into
them. This return to citation, ornament, and to "craftsmanship" was
carried out without qualms. For him, invention is what counts above
all. The history of styles has never caught hold of him because he
does not know where his craft will lead tomorrow. It is a craft
which, through random experimentation, has been the catalyst for
400 enigmatic furniture objects from 1985 to today: chairs, chests
of drawers, mirrors, cabinets, clocks, lanterns, etc. in which
dreams, invention and mystery prevail over function.
