While looking for Ivanka’s Christopher Wool next to her Eames lounge chair, I stumbled across this Eames plywood screen that Wool painted in 2002. It was acquired by a Geneva art collector-turned-jewelry designer named Arlene Bonnant for her CAP Collection, which she published a book about in 2005, right before flipping a tranche of it in 2007. Some of her haul might not have ever even made it out of the crate before she flipped it. She held off on selling the screen, though, until 2014.
It’s wild how I can imagine being psyched for an object like at one point, but five minutes of Googling has really soured me on it. What a cursed combination of search terms this turned out to be.
