About the Item
David Gill
Designing Art
By: David Gill
Introduction by Meredith Etherington-Smith
David Gill reveals the famed gallerist’s opinions of and influence on the world of art and design; he presents the works of artists, sculptors, and designers he has discovered and nurtured, among them Donald Judd, Mattia Bonetti, Zaha Hadid, Grayson Perry, Barnaby Barford, Fredrikson Stallard, Jorge Pardo, and the Campana brothers. Structured chronologically, and divided by location, the book includes never-before-seen photographs of Gill’s galleries, his award-winning exhibitions, and the private collections in his own homes: a converted handbag factory south of the River Thames; the eighteenth-century Albany apartments in London’s Mayfair; and his latest home, a restored palazzo in Malta’s Valetta. Seen throughout are the designs of the many world-famous artists he has represented over his quarter of a century at the forefront of the contemporary art and design world. The book also features a selection of his curated interiors and never-before-published glimpses of the private collections and homes of the numerous internationally renowned collectors with whom Gill regularly collaborates. This book is an extraordinary visual document of one man’s journey through historic twentieth-century art and design to a new and exciting twenty-first century world.
After a stint at auction house Christie’s, David Gill founded his first, eponymous London gallery on the Fulham Road, London, in 1987. The Spanish-born Gill has stealthily shaped the perception and reception of design over the last twenty-five years, pushing names from the worlds of fashion, architecture, and art to the forefront of product and furniture design.
