Kim Schmahmann

Kim Schmahmann (born 1955 in Johannesburg, South Africa) is an artist who currently resides in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He creates conceptual art using furniture as his medium. Many of his pieces comment on his British-centric education in South Africa, and the environment growing up there. His piece "Bureau of Bureaucracy" is permanently on display at the Smithsonian-run Renwick Gallery in Washington, DC. "Bureau" took six years (from 1993-1999) to create at the MIT Hobby Shop in Cambridge. The piece he is currently working on is titled "Apart-Hate: A People Divider."
