Upstate Collection Kripplebush plate

MOSS MOSS: THE DAILY NEW
  Apr 12, 2011

Upstate Collection
Kripplebush plate


manufacturer:
Conduit Group, USA

designer:
Constantin Boym
design year:
2002

notes:
Everyone is familiar with souvenir plates featuring stereotypical views of European capitals or other picturesque tourist attractions. Instead, Constantin Boym offers a set of plates devoted to unknown, completely non-descript areas of upstate New York. The views, taken with a digital camera, are "almost all right", to use the expression of Robert Venturi, yet there is always something slightly off key, either a jumble of telephone wires overhead, or a "wrong" car on the road. Each plate is numbered from a limited edition of 300.

materials:
High resolution digital decal prints on ceramic.

price:
$90
