Center44's SHOUT OUT - 2/8/10 - New Inventory

	Center44 MIDTOWN MANHATTAN'S ANTIQUES AND MODERN MARKETPLACE

Due to a last minute scheduling change, this week’s Shout Out feature had to be postponed to a later date.

However, so much great merchandise just keeps pouring in to Center44 that we’ll take this opportunity to present an array of new goodies below. And, of course, a musical selection to enjoy while you wander through the aisles.

That’s what we’re here for!

Paul and Jim

heard collage

Luna Tart is the tongue-in-cheek, world-weary alter-ego of Laura Freeman. Luna Tart Died is a collection of her original songs in vaudeville, early jazz and tin pan alley styles, driven by ukulele strumming and vocals in the Lotte Lenya / Marlene Dietrich mode. Our favorite lyric: "I want to leave this party, but I can't find the door."

Listen here.

Keith and Kate of Haza Haus, a popular Center44 source for wonderful Eastern European Deco furnishings, were recently called back to Romania. Before long, they got involved in The Alex Fund - a charity dedicated to helping children and their mothers in an “every child in school” program. One of its creators is Leslie Hawke, whose son, actor Ethan Hawke, is currently directing a production of Sam Shepard’s A Lie Of The Mind in New York City. Proceeds from the show at The New Group on February 19th will benefit The Alex Fund. You can read the whole story at tonic.com. Tickets for this special benefit performance, followed by a reception with the actors and Mr. Hawke, can be purchased at alexfund.com.

INTERIOR DESIGNS

Portfolio project

Designer Cherie Zucker, a long-time Center44 client, just had her recent Katonah, NY project featured in an 8-page spread in Interior Design.

A number of items from C44 found their way into this exciting project. The "explosive" rug featured here is centered by a vintage sofa with travertine sides and Mid-C. patent leather side chairs that Ms. Zucker located at our Midtown showroom.

Read the whole story, with lots more photos, at interiordesign.net.

The same issue of Interior Design has a fascinating story titled The Rules
are...There are No Rules. Twin designers, 2Michaels, were among those invited to “rethink carpet” for InterfaceFlor’s Awarehouse.

No rules

They created a stunning, yet realistic, sitting room out of carpet, yarn, wood and spools. C44 dealer, Weinberg Modern, provided the vintage furniture which, in some cases, the designers resurfaced with backless carpet to fit the mood.
Read the whole story.

La publicite

Center44’s Andy Lin of Mix Gallery and Larry Weinberg of Weinberg Modern amassed a large collection of conceptual 40’s and 50’s prototypes by obscure designers when they were partners in Soho in the 90’s. Now their dream of showing this unique and rare material has come true: they have loaned the collection to the Museum of the City of New York. “The Future at Home: American Furniture, 1940-1955” runs through February 8. In conjunction with the event, Cindy Allen, editor-in-chief of Interior Design, will moderate a panel discussion about Mid-Century furniture on January 13 at 6:30 pm at the Museum.

The December 7th edition of The New York Times presented an article titled Shopping with Alexandra Champalimaud - Where to Buy Warmth by Tim McKeough which featured C44 dealer Coup d’Etat.

(Below is the link to the story, but it only works if you copy and paste it into your browser.)

Blurring the lines between 50’s rockabilly and 60’s soul, comes Blue Black Hair by retro band The Del Moroccos.

(Don’t miss their great version of “I’d Rather Go Blind.”)

There were two typos in last week's Shout Out.

"Wonder Man" and "Forty Something" should have read by Peter Buchman.

The Barovier chandelier should have been priced at $38,500
