Silueta floor lamp design Bohuslav (Boda) Horak for Anthologie Quartett – Germany 90s

Horák's world is as if it were not of this world… the floor lamps transform into carnivorous plants but despite all the fantasy and poetry, his creations are also endowed with functionality as well as atmospheres, fantasies and dreams.

The “Silueta” floor lamp is characterized by a patinated, sandblasted and perforated iron structure which produces fascinating light effects.
Made entirely by hand, it is considered a true work of art.

Horak is a master of metal; no one else can bend, assemble and weld iron and aluminum tubes and metal plates into new shapes like he does… however, the delicate and creative violence he exerts on the metal with increasing mastery is only one aspect of his art, because Horák is also a surface master.
with various color treatments and pigmented layers he modifies and enriches the surfaces of his metals and in the end nothing remains as it was... the materials he works with transform like a cameo into other shapes, and no fragment resembles another.

Every single object designed by Bohuslav (Boda) Horak was made by hand, whereby the final touch is given by the designer himself so that each piece is a unique example... for this reason please allow measurements and colors that deviate from the illustrations from his catalogue.

Boda Horak participates in prestigious exhibitions in some famous international galleries such as Binnen in Amsterdam, Jannone in Milan, Ferrero1947 in Turin, the Moss Gallery in New York, the Limn gallery in San Francisco, UNICA Las Vegas, etc…
His works are regularly published at home and abroad, in many art magazines and books, and are also exhibited in the most famous design and applied art museums in the world and in some private collections.

Anthologie Quartett creates a vast range of products specifically created by architects and designers who are characterized by a very different or even, often, completely antithetical design philosophy.

Anthologie Quartett was born in September 1983 in Hannover, as a gallery that collects pieces of architecture, design, fashion and art.
