Only halfway into James Krenov’s book do we get an idea of what it is about. He was a cabinetmaker as well as a writer. Krenov’s first solo show was in 1965 in Stockholm, and it included pieces such as “Liv i Trä” and “Violin Cabinet.” The latter of these shows the simple, almost rectilinear shaping from his early years. Another piece – “Chess Table” (1970) – displays Krenov’s ability to show intention in every detail. Krenov also created several music stands during his lifetime. He enjoyed musical analogies to woodworking.
