SPRING FEVER

straight

If thoughts of Spring bring vibrant colors to mind, allow us to enhance your fantasies with some vivid items that have just arrived at Center44.

These large 3-D hanging “Bondo Creations” from the late-20th C. are by Eric Z. from Austin, Texas. They just flew in to C44’s
Frankly Scarlet booth. They’re made of wire, wood, paper, bondo and paint and were produced in very limited numbers. In early 2000, the artist ceased production altogether.

on right: $1800

Agnes Marzonie just brought us these very rare and large polychromed Chinese roof tile parrots from the 19th C. It was believed ceramic parrots protected a building’s inhabitants and brought positive energy to the house. The number of parrots denoted importance – but never more than nine were allowed.

$28,000 the pair

This spectacular multi-colored
opalescent glass chandelier
is 60’s Vistosi and just showed up
in Greg Nanamura’s space.

$5800

And more . . .

In the newly opened Richard Meier building on Brooklyn’s Grand Army Plaza, Robert Austin Gonzalez used a sculptural 70’s Italian floor lamp with 5 brass arms that he found at Center44. Besides enhancing the gold theme he created and providing light to the center of the living room, it also works as a room divider.

We invite submissions of
your design projects utilizing material from C44. For more information visit the
P ortfolio Project.

The trippy 70’s confection, Love is on the Rise, has been re-released after more than 30 years. It’s the once-only collaboration between John Phillips, the force behind The Mamas and the Papas, and his third and last wife, Genevieve Waite. Underappreciated at the time, it’s now a collectible classic of period fluff.

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.”

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.

Center44 sends holiday cheer your way

to be a “bad” year into a very good one. 2010 is looking up, too.
We couldn’t do it without you.

Our gift is one of Jim’s Mama’s best-loved (and carefully guarded) holiday recipes. They are simply scrumptious! …and they’re quick and easy to make.

Chewy Noels
2 tbs.butter
1/3 cup flour
1/8 tsp. baking soda
1/8 tsp. salt
1 cup dark brown sugar
1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
2 beaten eggs
½ tsp. vanilla extract
½ tsp. almond extract
confectionary sugar

melt butter in a 9″ x 9″ x 2″ pan
sift together flour, soda, salt
stir in brown sugar and nuts
stir in eggs
stir in vanilla/almond extract
carefully pour batter over butter (do not stir!)
bake 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes
don’t worry if they look undercooked
let cool
sprinkle with confectionary sugar
cut into 24 squares
Enjoy!

Here’s a giddy little collection
of remixed Christmas chestnuts that’ll make you feel like you’ve had a few too many eggnogs.

Sample.
