"The idea of craftsmanship as a natural ancillary of manufacturing has, in our age, been replaced by standards of finish which slide about within a concept of programmed obsolescence. Fortunately, there are a few stubborn individuals around the world, (guerillas of the creative spirit) who fight the throw away society with a singular idea...they believe that significant design..suiting the body function...within a proper amalgam of disparate material, comes to nothing if the glue that bonds, the thread that holds, the screw that joins, are not of proper strength, weight or length. Craftsmanship is implicit in the original concept of important design, as it is an indivisible part of all the factors that go to make art.

"Stefan Siwinski is just such an artist and craftsman. He is a sculptor of furniture, a perfectionist wih a classic disdain for gimmicks...yet he is constantly discovering uses for the latest developments in advanced technology as they can be applied to the materials used in furniture manufacture.

"For Stefan Siwinski the design and making of furniture in his own plant under his constant supervision is not a trade, a career, or a means of retiring to the places of eternal sun.. it is a calling... it is his whole life. He has what art demands... a fanatical desire to make the best, and it shows. What Stefan Siwinski creates ranks with the finest examples of contemporary furniture in the world."
