on the cover and comes in a Micarta slipcase designed byMarc Newson
and Richard Allan. Micarta is a century-old resin and fabric
laminate process that has a wood-like grain. It was originally
invented as an electricalinsulator and was an all but obsolete
material whenNewson resurrected it to make limited edition
chairsfor his 2007 Gagosian exhibition. Since then, he also used
Micarta for his Aquariva boat and it has become something of a
signature mediumfor him, making it the perfect choice for the Art
Edition slipcase.01-20_CE_Newson_TEASER.IND7 6 19.09.12 14:09
