Public Lecture: Carl J. D'Silva
Carl J. D’Silva, FAIA, is a Chicago-based architect and a Principal at Perkins&Will, and has recently released the book Lost Danish Treasure, which tells the tale of how a priceless watercolor of Danish Modern’s most iconic design, the Chieftain Chair, was rediscovered through the combined research efforts of a small group of collectors.
D’Silva has been collecting and researching Danish Modern furniture since 2011. During the lecture, he will review the history of the Chieftain Chair and discuss how Finn Juhl, one of Denmark’s most celebrated architects, evolved his furniture design in the 1940s. He will present historical research and modern-day analysis, rewriting the early history of the chair.
