Howard Meister’s original intention when he designed Learning Her Lie was to produce 30 chairs, however he later decided to make it a more limited edition, with just 16 chairs in total. The present example is from his very frst series of chair designs, made with the intention of infusing common objects with poetic meaning. It has been exhibited at various galleries in Chicago, Osaka, Tokyo and New York between 1989 and 2017, including the artist’s frst solo exhibition in 1982 at Art et Industrie in New York. Another example from this series is in the permanent collection at The Art Institute of Chicago.
The present carpet is one of three designed by Steven Holl and produced by V’Soske in 1991 for the Stretto House in Dallas, Texas. The shaded efect was created by combining ffy-six colors in unique combinations in a special texture of cut-pile worsted wool yarn.

175. Steven Holl The fowing rhythmic elements of the Stretto House, including the table and carpet which were exclusively designed for the house, are the product of Steven Holl’s interest in musical structures. He was specifcally inspired by a 1936 composition by the Hungarian composer Béla Bartók, which emphasized momentum and rhythmic divisions. Just as Paul Klee translated Bach’s scores into a visual experience, Holl has incorporated geometric forms akin to stafs, time signatures and various musical notes into his carpet and table designs to create a fuid work.

Gerrit Thomas Rietveld’s pragmatic approach towards furniture is apparent in his chairs, but even more so in his table designs. While the famous De Stijl asymmetric end table is an exception to the rule, most of his tables are rudimentary archetypes of their function: a horizontal plane supported by a simple base, preferably made out of ready-made or easily accessible material such as door panels and standard iron gas pipes. For Truus Schröder, Rietveld made a dining table top out of four raw planks with irregular edges, and he regarded his austere crate series as one of his most satisfactory furniture concepts. Given his approach, the present table is sophisticated despite its relatively basic form. Although the base of crossed boards echoes the crate designs, the rounded edges give it a playful twist. Rietveld frst applied this idea in a series of low chairs similar to the “Beugel” chair design, with wooden bases instead of the customary tubular steel frames, the rounded edges of the planks ftting neatly into the curves of the undulating plywood seats. One of these low wooden “Beugel” chairs is recorded in Rietveld’s private apartment and a set of these chairs with a matching small high table, similar to the present larger low table, is in the collection of the Stedelijk Museum. Although Rietveld never designed a specifc table for his “Beugel chairs,” it is not surprising that these two tables became known as “Beugeltafels.” Rietveld designed the table for his youngest daughter Vrouwgien Rietveld (1918-1995) as a gif for her wedding in January 1940, together with a pair of crate chairs. It is possible that the table originally was unpainted with a clear fnish, which would have matched with the pair of crate chairs. The top was later painted an aluminum color, much like the paint found on the frames of “Beugel” chairs, with black fnish on the edges of the top and the legs. In later years, the table top and the frame were overpainted in white, covering the curved heads of the screws which originally must have been a visible and decorative part of the construction of the base. —Rob Driessen

NY Guide for Prospective Buyers Each Phillips auction is governed by the applicable Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty. All prospective bidders should read these sections carefully. They govern the purchasing agreement under which you buy at auction from Phillips. They may be also amended by saleroom addendum or auctioneer’s announcement during the auction. The complete Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty applicable to this auction (Version October 18, 2018) are found online at phillips.com, along with detailed information on each lot. Pre-Sale Estimates Pre-sale estimates are intended as a guide for prospective buyers. Any bid within the high and low estimate range should, in our opinion, ofer a chance of success. However, many lots achieve prices below or above the pre-sale estimates. Where “Estimate on Request” appears, please contact the specialist department for further information. It is advisable to contact us closer to the time of the auction as estimates can be subject to revision. Pre-sale estimates do not include the buyer’s premium or any applicable taxes. All Lots are Subject to ‘Buyer’s Premium’ Phillips charges the successful bidder a commission, or buyer’s premium, on the hammer price of each lot sold. The buyer’s premium is payable by the buyer as part of the total purchase price at the following rates: 25% of the hammer price up to and including $300,000, 20% of the portion of the hammer price above $300,000 up to and including $4,000,000 and 12.5% of the portion of the hammer price above $4,000,000. Condition and Condition Reports Phillips does not warrant or guarantee condition on any lot. Solely as a convenience to clients, Phillips may provide condition reports on many lots, which are also available online on the lot detail pages. If there is not a condition report available, that is not a representation that a lot is in perfect condition. While condition reports are prepared honestly and carefully, our staff are not professional restorers or trained conservators. We therefore encourage all prospective buyers to inspect all lots at our pre-sale exhibitions, and contact our staff with any questions. Electrical and Mechanical Lots All lots with electrical and/or mechanical features are sold on the basis of their decorative value only and should not be assumed to be operative. It is essential that, prior to any intended use, the electrical system is verified and approved by a qualified electrician. Bidding at Auction You may bid in the auction in person, online, on the phone, or by placing an absentee bid. The easiest way to arrange or register to bid at auction is to set up a client account online. Go to our homepage, phillips.com and fill out the account form. When you want to register for an auction, click Register on sale pages or lot detail pages, and you’ll confirm your account details, be asked for a credit card number for identification purposes and our Bids
Department will process your request. We recommend registering at least 24 hours prior to sale to ensure that you can bid. Good luck! Transport and Shipping As a free service for buyers, Phillips will wrap purchased lots for hand carry only. Alternatively, we will either provide packing, handling and shipping services or coordinate with shipping agents in order to facilitate such services for property purchased at Phillips. In the event that the property is collected in New York by the buyer or the buyer’s designee (including any private carrier) for subsequent transport out of state, Phillips may be required by law to collect New York sales tax, regardless of the lot’s ultimate destination. Please refer to Paragraph 17 of the Conditions of Sale for more information. Some lots are sold under special conditions. Phillips uses the following symbols to designate these lots: O Guaranteed Property Lots designated with the symbol [O] are the subject of a minimum price guarantee. In such cases Phillips has guaranteed to the seller of the lot that regardless of the outcome of the sale the seller shall receive no less than a minimum sum. This guarantee may be provided solely by Phillips or jointly with a third party. ♦ Third Party Guarantee Where Phillips has agreed to a minimum price guarantee it assumes the fnancial risk of a lot failing to sell or selling for less than the minimum price guarantee. Because the sums involved can be signifcant Phillips may choose to share the burden of that fnancial risk with a third party. The third party shares the risk by committing in advance of the sale, usually by way of a written bid, to buy the lot for an agreed amount whether or not there are competing bidders for the lot. If there are competing bidders third party guarantors may also bid above any written bid. In this way the third party guarantor assumes the risk of the bidding not reaching the amount of the minimum price guarantee. In return for underwriting or sharing this risk Phillips will usually compensate the third party. The compensation may be in the form of a fxed fee or an amount calculated by reference to the hammer price of the lot. If the third party guarantor is the successful bidder they will be required to pay the full hammer price and buyer’s premium and will not be otherwise compensated. Disclosure of fnancial interest by third parties Phillips requires third party guarantors to disclose their fnancial interest in the lot to anyone whom they are advising. If you are contemplating bidding on a lot which is the subject of a third party guarantee and you are being advised by someone or if you have asked someone to bid on your behalf you should always ask them to confrm whether or not they have a fnancial interest in the lot.
∆ Property in Which Phillips Has an Ownership Interest Lots with this symbol indicate that Phillips owns the lot in whole or in part or has an economic interest in the lot equivalent to an ownership interest. •No Reserve Unless indicated by a •, all lots in this catalogue are offered subject to a reserve. A reserve is the confidential value established between Phillips and the seller and below which a lot may not be sold. The reserve for each lot will not exceed the low pre-sale estimate. Σ Regulated Species Items made of or incorporating certain designated plant or animal material, including but not limited to coral, crocodile, ivory, whalebone, Brazilian rosewood, rhinoceros horn or tortoiseshell, (irrespective of age, percentage, or value), may require a license or certificate prior to exportation and additional licenses or certificates upon importation to any foreign country. Please note that the ability to obtain an export license or certificate does not ensure the ability to obtain an import license or certificate in another country, and vice versa. We recommend that prospective bidders check with their own local restrictions regarding such requirements prior to placing a bid. It is the buyer’s sole responsibility to obtain any necessary export or import licenses or certificates as well as any other required documentation. Please note that lots containing potentially regulated plant or animal material are marked as a convenience to our clients, but Phillips does not accept liability for errors or for failing to mark lots containing protected or regulated species.
