Cosmos Floor Lamp, ca. 1985; Anodized aluminum, plastic, metal, rubber (casters); H × diam.: 39 × 43 cm (15 3/8 × 16 15/16 in.)
Designer: Dan Friedman
While Dan Friedman started in corporate graphic design, he transformed into a postmodern darling, creating daring, sometimes confusing, queer designs that challenged modern conceptions of graphics and interiors. Proportion is called into question and shape deployed seemingly erratically in Friedman’s fascinating, otherworldly designs. This floor lamp, measuring little more than a foot tall and equipped with wheels for mobility, screams for a radical space and a departure from modern living.

"'Half this country feels this way still,' Watkins said after she was pressed about her role in a confrontation with police inside the Capitol on January 6. 'Half this country still feels disenfranchised by that election…We didn’t have a free and fair election. And that is not rhetoric.'"
