Cabinet no. 78. Ettore Sottsass, 2006. Materials not listed in Friedman Benda Gallery catalog, where the piece was first shown in the USA in 2007, the year of Sottsass’ death. Possibly aniline stain over amboyna burl veneer. 

"I think that the future doesn’t exist. what we think of today as the future isn’t the future. People are always afraid of the future, and the future has always been a disaster, like the present is a disaster.
