Re-Edition des Ensembles bestehend aus Schachfiguren und Tisch

Isamu Noguchi (1904 - 1988) entwickelte dieses Ensemble 1944 für die Ausstellung «Imagery of Chess» in der Julien Levy Gallery in New York. Julien Levy hatte die Ausstellung zusammen mit Marcel Duchamp und Max Ernst kuratiert.

Die Neuauflage ist in einer Kooperation von Ameico, IC Design und der Isamu Noguchi Foundation entstanden, während die Produktionsentwicklung und Herstellung von tät-tat übernommen wurde.

Noguchi verband seine künstlerische Leidenschaft mit einem tiefen Respekt für die Geschichte und Traditionen der östlichen, wie auch der westlichen Kulturen. Besonders angetan hatten es ihm historische indische und persische Schachformen. Verstärkt wurde dies wohl durch seine Liebesbeziehung mit Tara Pandit, der Nichte des indischen Premierministers Jawaharlal Nehru. Anstelle der üblichen weissen und schwarzen Figuren und Bretter des Westens, kopierte Noguchi indische schwarze Lackbretter mit kreisförmigen Einsätzen. Seine Figuren fertigte er in durchscheinendem Rot und Grün an, was an die Rubine und Smaragde erinnert, die die legendären Schachfiguren der frühen indischen Rajahs schmückten. Alle Figuren bis auf den Turm haben kopfartige Formen und gewölbte Stacheln.

Der Mangel an hochwertigen Materialien während des Krieges begrenzte und inspirierte Noguchi. Für diesen Entwurf entwickelte er ein einfaches System, bei dem dünne, konturierte Materialebenen zusammengeklebt wurden, die die Objekte in die finale Objektdimension transponierten. In seinen Skulpturen verfolgte er später diese Idee für längere Zeit weiter. Neu war für diese Zeit auch das Plexiglas, das als Material zur Herstellung durchsichtiger Flugzeugkanzeln und Geschütztürme entwickelt worden war (The imagery of Chess revisited, herausgegeben von Larry List).

tät-tat finalisierte die Umsetzung des faltbaren Brettes, der Figuren und den Innenausbau der Verpackung.

Stylish Statement Suit for the Price
Size: Medium, Color: Gold - Embroidery, Size: Medium, Color: Gold - Embroidery
I really like the black with gold embroidery on this suit - it really will make you stand out. The gold does have a slight green tint to it in certain lighting, but overall I like the unique design and think it looks great. The pants have some flexibility, which made them more comfortable than I expected. I got a Medium - and im usually a 32W. I could see it fitting a 30W or34W too. It arrived in great shape and was not wrinkled at all, though i'm likely going to have to hem the pants 1-2 inches. The pants are neutral and could be worn with other black jackets. I am usually a size 42 bust in jackets, and while the size chart says medium is a 44 bust, i think this fits me like a glove. It also came with a bow tie, which is a nice added bonus. Overall, I think this is a great deal for the price and a solid choice for anyone looking for a versatile standout suit for a formal event or a costume party.

Way better than expected - Not a "costume" at all!
Size: X-Large, Color: Christmas Green
I’m going to be honest: I was fully prepared to open this package and find a cheap, shiny, flammable-looking costume that belonged in a discount Halloween store. Buying a tuxedo on Amazon feels like a total gamble, and I was definitely a skeptic. I couldn’t have been more wrong. This suit is actually fantastic. First off, the fabric. It doesn’t have that "plastic" feel I was dreading; it actually feels elegant and has a nice weight to it. The floral pattern is sharp and the colors are vibrant without being "too much." It looks way more expensive than the price tag suggests. The fit was the biggest surprise. I’m always wary of "slim fit" labels, but this hit the mark perfectly. It’s tailored in the right places without feeling like I’m about to burst a seam if I sit down. I originally bought this thinking it might work for a one-off event, but now I’m genuinely excited to break it out for an upcoming casino night and a wedding later this year. If you’re on the fence because you’re worried about Amazon quality, just go for it. This is a legitimate suit that’ll definitely get you some compliments. 10/10 would buy again.

Showstopper! Incredible Fit and Stunning Floral Design!
Size: Medium, Color: Black
I bought this Mgnaie floral tuxedo for a special event, and I was absolutely blown away by the quality and the fit! Getting a slim-fit suit online can be a gamble, but this two-piece set fit perfectly right out of the package. The blazer hugs the shoulders beautifully, and the pants have a modern, sleek profile without being too restrictive or tight. The floral pattern is exactly what I wanted—bold and eye-catching, yet elegant enough for a formal setting like a wedding, prom, or gala. I received compliments all night long! The fabric feels premium, breathable, and comfortable enough to wear and dance in for hours without losing its shape. For the price, you are getting a high-end look that rivals much more expensive designer tuxedos. If you want to stand out from the crowd in the best way possible, I highly recommend this suit. It is an absolute must-have for any formal wardrobe!

Ddlivering a complete formal outfit!
Size: Medium, Color: Graphite
The YND “Your New Day” three‑piece slim‑fit tuxedo arrives with a matching bow tie, delivering a complete formal outfit without the need for additional purchases. The bow tie is constructed from the same 100 % polyester lining as the suit, ensuring consistent texture and durability; it matches the colour palette and finish, so the ensemble looks intentionally coordinated rather than patched together. Material‑wise the outer shell combines 79 % polyester with 21 % viscose. This blend offers a subtle sheen appropriate for evening events while remaining breathable enough for prolonged wear. The 100 % polyester lining slides smoothly over the body, resists pilling, and holds its shape after repeated cleaning. Chrome‑finished buttons on both the exterior and interior pockets reinforce the impression of careful craftsmanship, which the brand backs with a claim of more than 300 production steps per garment. The cut is modern and athletic. A slim silhouette with 3‑D draping creates a sharp profile without restricting movement. Whether you are navigating a crowded reception, dancing at a wedding, or stepping between meetings, the suit permits natural motion. The shawl lapel adds a timeless element that softens the otherwise contemporary lines, while the inclusion of a bow tie introduces a classic formal cue that broadens the outfit’s applicability across a range of dress codes. From a value perspective the bundled bow tie eliminates the typical $50‑$80 outlay required for a comparable designer accessory. The package therefore delivers a ready‑to‑wear, polished look at a single price point, aligning with the pragmatic expectations of a company director who prioritises efficiency and cost‑effectiveness. Sizing guidance is straightforward: select a size whose chest measurement exceeds your own by four to five inches (for example, a 39‑inch chest would correspond to a size M with a 43‑inch chest opening). The product description advises checking the supplied size chart and, if uncertainty remains, providing height, weight, chest and waist measurements for a personalized recommendation. In summary, the YND tuxedo with its integrated bow tie offers a compelling mix of modern tailoring, material reliability, and sensible economics. It satisfies the core requirements of a professional wardrobe: a sharp aesthetic, functional comfort, and a complete accessory set delivered in one package. For a director seeking a dependable, stylish option without superfluous extras, this ensemble merits serious consideration. It aligns with corporate image standards while respecting budget constraints, making it a investment for leadership attire.
