Important "Punto '83" table in stainless steel with mesh tabletop with adjustable height and adjustable petals by Gabriella Crespi, Italy, 1982. "Punto '83" was created for Milan’s Museo della Scienza e della Tecnica as part of the exhibition "I Plurimi di Gabriella Crespi" introduced by Vanni Scheiwiller. This piece is an architectural tour de force and the most important table Crespi designed.

Literature: "Gabriella Crespi, Il Segno E Lo Sprito", book published by Electra for an Exhibition in Milan in 2011, texts and images provided by Gabriella Crespi, curated by Elisabetta Crespi and Cesare Cunaccia, photos pages 82-83, on page 63 it states "The last item in the "Plurimi" Series is the "Punto 83," from 1982. Only one specimen exists, but it is an object that sums up all of Gabriella Crespi's earlier experiences.  It presents a structure divided into petals of stainless steel mesh and is fitted with a pump lift that allows it to be used at different heights.  Locking spines allow the surfaces to adopt different geometric shapes .  It is an example of technology applied to the functionality and dynamics of the object:  the summation and grand finale of the path followed by the "Plurimi," which play a central role in the poetics of Gabriella Crespi."


Table is 41 1/2 inches x 26 inches when closed.

ALCHEMY: THE ART OF PHILIP AND KELVIN LAVERNE written by Evan Lobel with Kelvin LaVerne, published by Pointed Leaf Press in 2024, a CHI LIANG coffee table is shown on pages 62-63 in the section titled The Historical Civilization Series. The caption below reads, “The CHI LIANG coffee table was created in the 1960s in patinated bronze and pewter with engraving and hand-painted enamels, as described by Kelvin LaVerne: ‘The design is from a painting in China made many centuries ago. It depicts and symbolizes the Sky (representing heaven, mortality, spirituality, and the universe), the Earth (representing growth, nature, and material needs), and the River that runs through (representing fate, life, and destiny). The paintings with pastoral scenes symbolizing the religious and philosophical concepts inherent in the narrative, as well as the beauty in the artwork, is what we found so fascinating and gave us the inspiration and determination to represent these ancient Eastern civilizations and histories visually on a sculptural modern platform. The many philosophies and religions in China throughout the centuries, although similar, offered slightly different mythologies, depending on the ruling dynasty. So we created a table with a sculptural form that gives voice to all, in its dimension and shape the platforms that rise and fall in an undulating movement suggesting the uncertainties and vagaries of life. Although extremely contemporary, the form maintains the integrity of a Chinese presence.’” It is also discussed in the introduction.
