A “Z. Chair”,
designed by Zaha Hadid * in 2011 for Sawaya & Moroni, Italy, polished stainless steel, height 88 cm, width 92 cm, depth 61 cm. (DR)
No. 5 from the limited edition of 24 plus three artist’s proofs.
Provenance: private ownership, France.
Hadid’s “Z. Chair” summarizes the complex programme of “parametricism” advanced by the Iraqi architect in her works: a research of composition that repudiates such ideal figures as the cube, the cylinder, the hemisphere, and the pyramid and opts for splines (flexible strips), blobs and NURB (non-uniform rational B-spline) surfaces. In this scenario, all the elements of architecture become parametrically malleable, encouraging buildings’ internal integration and external adaptation. Bunches and puzzles, fields and swarms, landscape and topography, waves, shells and cocoons, lines, bands and nets, the quest for parameters and continuous, fluid surfaces, like in the “Z. Chair”, become the themes of a continuously evolving design process in progress.
