The Anton Gerner Exhibition
For just two days in September 2019, award-winning craftsman Anton Gerner will stage an exhibition of his contemporary heirloom furniture at National Trust mansion, Labassa in the Melbourne suburb of Caulfield.
These timeless, one-off collectors’ pieces range from modern Art Deco to ultra-contemporary, and aren’t always what they seem. An exposed cabinet with no obvious front, back or sides, a block of Huon Pine that is as much a sculpture as a set of drawers, a collection of geometric shapes that function as drawers that also speak to you.
