“摇匀，而非搅拌"，物如其人，离谱大胆且荒谬的 "家具艺术 "，是马克·布雷泽尔-琼斯先生为人称道之处。 扎尔加索 （Zargazo）鸡尾酒柜使用了青铜，红铜，蚀刻和雕刻玻璃，并完成于约1998年的英格兰。长方形盒状玻璃上部有两扇门，开启后可见一个明亮的柜架内部。应用青铜 "海洋生物 "圆环、抛光青铜铰链和黄铜中央锁，底部则支撑着自然主义美学的高大青铜凸脚上，称得上是一件经典的MBJ作品。 "Sargazo "又名Zargazo（柜子上的图案和形状）是一种海藻，为墨西哥的海洋野生动物提供栖息地。

About the artist: Mark Brazier-Jones was born in New Zealand in 1956 and moved to the UK at the age of 12. After earning a BA in ceramic sculpture, he found work in the emerging music video business. In the late 1970s and early ‘80s, he designed and built sets for the likes of David Bowie, Duran Duran, Spandau Baleet, Freddy Mercury, and Elton John.

As he became enmeshed in the legendary London warehouse party scene, he developed a close friendship with both Tom Dixon and Nick Jones, members of local band Funkapolitan. The three friends started the Creative Salvage Group in 1983, later to be joined by Andre Dubreuil.

After a few years, Brazier-Jones moved to the countryside and returned to his ceramic roots. Soon he was sculpting furniture to be cast in bronze. He conceived his first limited-edition chair, the Wingback, in 1987; it was sold out before the start of 1988. Other standouts from Brazier-Jones’ career included the Bond Armchair (ca. 1990), San Demas Lounge (1996), and Duchess Chandelier (2010).

Brazier-Jones’s work can be found in museum’s around the world, like the Victoria & Albert in London, Museum of Art & Design in New York, and Musee des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, as well as many important private collections.

关于艺术家：马克·布雷泽尔-琼斯于1956年出生在新西兰，12岁时移居英国。在获得陶瓷雕塑的学士学位后，他在新兴的音乐视频行业找到了工作。在20世纪70年代和80年代初，他为大卫-鲍伊、杜兰-杜兰、斯潘道芭蕾舞团、弗雷迪-水星和埃尔顿-约翰等人设计和建造布景。

当他被卷入传奇的伦敦仓库派对现场时，他与当地乐队Funkapolitan的成员汤姆-迪克森和尼克-琼斯都建立了密切的友谊。这三个朋友在1983年成立了创意打捞集团，后来安德烈-杜布瑞尔也加入其中。

几年后，马克 布雷泽尔-琼斯搬到了乡下，回到了他的陶瓷之根。很快，他就开始雕刻家具，准备用青铜铸造。他在1987年构思了第一把限量版椅子—Wingback，并在1988年前就已售空。布雷泽-琼斯职业生涯中的其他突出作品包括邦德扶手椅（约1990年）、圣德玛斯休息室（1996年）和公爵夫人吊灯（2010年）。

布雷泽-琼斯的作品在世界各地的博物馆中皆能寻见，如伦敦的维多利亚和阿尔伯特博物馆、纽约艺术与设计博物馆和巴黎装饰艺术博物馆，以及许多重要的私人收藏。
