Found Art

By: Katherine Reid


Three Gulfshore Art Curators on the Eclectic Craft of Collecting.

That happened to Poehlmann when he paid $1.50 for a circa-1940s Warren McArthur chair worth between $1,500 and $2,000. Also trading their talents-Poehlmann swaps his works, Kramer her career advice and counsel-the couple has built an enclave of fine design that's become a part of their daily lives. They eat at and entertain around a 1950s Eero Saarinen tulip- and pedestal-based dining table. They sit on a 1950s Dan Johnson cast-aluminum chair. They read by George Nelson's 1950s bubble lamps.

There's only one drawback to their lives with art.

"The downside to collecting furniture is storage," Kramer says with a laugh.
