Living with Chamberlain, Art in Residence
By Assouline Publishing
Located in NEW YORK, NY
Living with Chamberlain: Art in Residence offers an intimate portrait of the artist’s legacy, featuring a foreword by Rick Owens and a series of conversations with family, friends, gallerists, and collectors. This personal volume reveals how Chamberlain’s art has touched the lives of many—mirroring the eclecticism of his own creative spirit.
John Chamberlain (1927–2011) is celebrated for his prolific output and groundbreaking sculptures that defied convention. The stories shared throughout the book offer unexpected glimpses into the way his work continues to resonate: collectors Bruce and Barbara Berger recall trading a refrigerator for a Chamberlain sculpture in 1972; Yvonne Force Villareal recounts meeting her husband, artist Leo Villareal, at an exhibition of Chamberlain couches; fashion designer Matthew Williams and artist Solange Knowles reflect on Chamberlain’s creative influence; and Vera Wang shares the story of an unusual friendship sparked by a chance encounter at MoMA.
Contributors include: Amy Astley; Joa Baldinger and Heiner Friedrich; Bruce and Barbara Berger; Darius and Jill Bikoff; Michael Black; David, Lauren, and Sean Carpenter; Susan Davidson; Karen, Steven, and Zoë Feldman; Urs Fischer; Larry Gagosian; Bob Gersh; Andrea Glimcher; Marc Glimcher; Eric Goodman; Jeff and Judy Greenstein; Karsten Greve; Wilhelm and Jutta Grusdat; Lana Jokel; Rainer Judd; Colin King; Solange Knowles; Bernard and Joanne Kruger; Nancy Magoon; Helen Marden...

Living with Chamberlain, Art in Residence (Special Edition)
By Assouline Publishing
Located in NEW YORK, NY
Discover a masterpiece of artistry and craftsmanship with this special edition of Living with Chamberlain—a must-have for discerning collectors.
Limited to just 200 copies, each edition is truly an artwork in its own right, featuring a one-of-a-kind sculptural element crafted with repurposed metals sourced directly from Chamberlain's studio, along with a rare 1990 limited-edition print by the artist.
Presented in a luxurious clamshell case, this edition is a rare and exceptional tribute to Chamberlain’s enduring legacy. More than a book, it is a collectible object—bold, tactile, and deeply connected to the spirit of the artist himself.
Featuring a foreword by Rick Owens, and interviews and conversations with family, friends, gallerists, and collectors, this intimate and personal volume uncovers how Chamberlain’s art has impacted the lives of so many, including personalities as diverse as Chamberlain’s wide-ranging artistic expressions. Among the many stories contained, collectors Bruce and Barbara Berger recount how they traded a refrigerator for their Chamberlain sculpture in 1972; Yvonne Force Villareal shares how she met her husband, artist Leo Villareal, at an exhibition of Chamberlain couches; fashion designer Matthew Williams and artist Solange Knowles speak about their separate experiences with Chamberlain’s art and his creative influence on their own work; and fashion designer Vera Wang shares how a chance encounter at MoMA led to an unusual late-life friendship with the artist.
