MAD Museum buys Brajkovic Lathe Chair
Last year, Sebastian Brajkovic’s Lathe VIII was bought by London’s Victoria & Albert Museum for the recent exhibition Telling Tales – Fear and Fantasy in Contemporary Design, and for their permanent collection. This year, another international museum will have one of his chairs in their permanent collection. New York’s Museum of Arts and Design recently purchased Lathe V. The chair is made of bronze and embroidered upholstery.
Brajkovic’s first series of Lathe Chairs were his graduation project from the Design Academy Eindhoven in 2006.
