Picker House is a remarkable late 1960s modernist home specifically
designed to accommodate a significant international collection of
modern and contemporary painting and sculpture. Situated on the
outskirts of London, in Kingston upon Thames, it is a rare
surviving example of a spacious and progressive late modern house
and garden that remains unaltered. Designed by the British
modernist architect Kenneth Wood in 1965, for the businessman
Stanley H. Picker (1913-1982), it still retains its period interior
decor, contemporary furnishings acquired through the then recently
established Terence Conran Group, and the distinctive art
collection of its owner - including works by Chagall, Frink,
Hepworth, Lowry, Rodin and many more - which was an integral part
of its conception. Based on previously unpublished material and
photographs, this heavily illustrated publication brings together
leading researchers in their respective fields who examine in depth
every aspect of this unique place.
