Ralph Dorazio (American, 1922-2004) was a multi-disciplinary artist and part of the New York City avant-garde scene of the 1960s and 70s. Born in Detroit, Dorazio landed in New York City after his discharge from military service in World War II. Upon arriving, he began to study painting and sculpture under the tutelage of Arthur Keissler and Jose De Kreeft. While sharing a 23rd Street studio with his wife Mary for more than 40 years, Dorazio sustained himself with teaching jobs at Pratt University and the Fabrizio Art School. During that time, he would create a massive body of work across many media including paintings, unique musical instruments, set and costume designs for theater productions, as well as the Modernist abstract sculptures poetically rendered in wood and for which he would become most renowned.

Over a prolific career spanning five decades in three artworld hotbeds—Venice, CA, SoHo and The Hamptons, NY—Gloria Kisch (1941–2014) developed a delightful yet rigorous body of work encompassing early minimalist paintings on canvas, large scale public art installations, and later floral sculptures, mobiles and furniture works – for which she is mostly known. Born in New York City to German immigrants, Kisch earned a BA from Sarah Lawerence and her masters from Otis College of Art and Design, where she studied alongside Bas Jan Ader and Barry Le Va. In the 1970s Kisch joined an intimate circle of feminist and post-minimalist artists living and working in Venice Beach, CA. She participated in the inaugural exhibition at Womanspace, Judy Chicago’s cooperative run feminist gallery which later became the Women’s Building, held landmark exhibitions alongside Bruce Nauman, Ed Ruscha, Kenneth Price and Richard Diebenkorn, and landed impressive solo presentations in museums, and large public art commissions when she transitioned from painting to sculpture. In 1981 Kisch returned to New York, set up a studio in the East Village, and began working with metal—primarily stainless steel for its permanence and ability to withstand the outdoors. Under the wing of Rick Kaufmann, Kitsch ventured into the realm of functional sculpture, how two solo exhibitions at Kaufmann’s iconic SoHo gallery Art et Industrie—a unique outpost known for showcasing radical design coming out of Europe and a platform for new talents in America. In 1991 she was included in a monumental group show titled Art and Application at Turbulence Gallery which placed her Functional Sculptures alongside art and design world luminaries Vito Acconci, Richard Artchwager, John Chamberlain, Wendel Castle, and Gaetano Pesce.

Robert Mapplethorpe (1946-1989) was born and raised in Queens, New York. He attended the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn from 1963 to 1969, where he majored in Graphic Arts and worked primarily in painting, sculpture, and collage. It was not until the 1970s when the artist Sandy Daley gave Mapplethorpe a Polaroid camera that he began to experiment with photography, which he originally used as a means to document his mixed-media artworks, and develop his signature style. During his lifetime, Mapplethorpe had impressive solo exhibitions at some of the most acclaimed institutions around the world, including the Institute of Contemporary Art, Philadelphia; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago; the National Portrait Gallery, London; the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. After his untimely death from AIDS in 1989, Mapplethorpe has been the subject of solo exhibitions at major international museums, including the Galleria dell'Accademia, Florence, Italy; Grand Palais, Paris, France; Musée Rodin, Paris, France; Moderna Museet, Stockholm, Sweden; Musée des beaux-arts de Montréal, Canada; and State Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg, Russia. In 2016, Mapplethorpe was the subject of a major touring retrospective, The Perfect Medium, which opened at the J. Paul Getty Museum and Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), Los Angeles, and toured to Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Canada and the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia. In 2019, Mapplethorpe was the subject of Implicit Tensions: Mapplethorpe Now, a year-long exhibition in two parts at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York.

Le Corbusier was a Swiss born-French architect, designer, city planner, writer and also a painter. Corbusier was trained as an engraver and goldsmith in addition to his extensive studies in architecture. In 1919, Le Corbusier founded the journal 'L'esprit Nouveau' (the New Spirit) where he formulated his ideas of modern architecture based on elemental geometric forms. Le Corbusier placed systems of harmony and proportion at the centre of his design philosophy. He began experimenting with furniture design in 1928 after inviting the architect, Charlotte Perriand, to join his studio. The first results of the collaboration were three chrome-plated tubular steel chairs designed for two of his projects, The Maison la Roche in Paris and a pavilion for Barbara and Henry Church. The line of furniture was expanded for Le Corbusier's 1929 Salon d'Automne installation, 'Equipment for the Home'. In 1943 Le Corbusier developed 'Le Modulor', a system of proportion based on the male figure and the Golden Ratio, used to determine the proportions of units in architecture and technology. It is also the basis of Le Corbusier's work in furniture design. In 1964, while Le Corbusier was still alive, Cassina S.p.A. of Milan acquired the exclusive worldwide rights to manufacture his furniture designs. Today many copies exist, but Cassina is still the only manufacturer authorized by the Fondation Le Corbusier.

The R 18 invokes the history and the iconic hallmarks of the collectible 1936 BMW R 5 motorcycle. The stand-out feature is the 1800cc air and oil cooled boxer motor, an engine design which links the R 18 to the very first BMW motorcycle produced almost 100 years ago, in 1923. The metal tear drop shaped fuel tank, beautiful black paint, double pin-striping and the nickel-plated exposed driveshaft are all part of the timeless design of BMW R-motorcycles. The R 18 brings these features forward into the 21st century by combining classic design and meticulous attention to detail with modern technology.
