Dieter Zimmermann
All those out there who detest the idea of today's "disposable society" are warmly recommended to take a closer
look at Dieter Zimmermann's works of art.
He calls himself a simple "furniture maker", albeit one whose pieces are enthusiastically pounced on by private customers,
as well as being exhibited in many museums and renowned galleries. The graduate in industrial design takes objects with their own
unique history and creates new pieces of furniture, giving them an imaginative new identity. Each of his pieces bears
its past proudly, exposing wear and tear, age and weathered surfaces to the world. Zimmermann's skilful art shines a
new spotlight on the aesthetics and charm of these pieces.
Most of the artist's works are unique. The pieces shown here are part of a collection that has been changing almost daily for the
past 20 years.

This charming, unique piece of furniture is a "Dresser". To make it, Zimmermann painted several pieces of wood and
combined them with untreated beechwood. A set of old wheels affixed to the base makes the dresser mobile.
The shelves are secured with chains to ensure that nothing falls off them. Despite the venerable age of the components,
Zimmermann has made sure that the end result is highly functional, as is shown by the small red bucket for tabletop waste.
