Wendell and Alastair Gordon at Design Miami Design Pioneers Talk

Design Pioneer Talk/ Wendell Castle

Design Miami/’s Design Pioneers talks continued on Friday with Wendell Castle – a true pioneer in furniture design who skirted the limits of functionality and art with objects that both served a purpose and were fundamentally sculptural. He spoke with Alastair Gordon, an art critic, curator and author of the book “Wendell Castle: Wandering Forms: Works from 1959-1979.” The two had a highly detailed discussion about the early and definitive works by Castle, who also shared stories about how he came to the revolutionary concepts and methods for which he’s known.
