Footnotes

Provenance
The DANAD Design Archive

DANAD Design (1958-1962) was set up in 1958 by a loose collective of six artists who lived in a dilapidated Georgian country house in Hertfordshire called Marden Hill. The collective's name derived, eponymously, from Barry Daniels and Tom Adams. Together with Peter Blake, Robyn Denny, Bernard Cohen and Edward Wright, as well as the architects Colin Huntley and Peter Adams, the artists worked collaboratively to cross the boundaries between art and design. Heralded as artistic pioneers, their use of everyday objects as their new platform to exhibit their art, is considered widely by many art historians to be one of the defining features of Pop Art. By featuring designs by artists on tables intended for everyday use they strove to bring art into the everyday, just as Pop Art deemed that almost anything from everyday life - such as cuttings from newspapers, collage and commercial advertising techniques - could become art.
