About the Item
This artwork is a composition of three stones made by Piero Gilardi in 1969.
The Certificate of Authenticity is provided by Archivio Piero Gilardi n. 1969.01 dated 17/12/2017.
This seating group is unconventional in both its technical structure (unsupported polyurethane foam) and its Surreal aesthetics ("soft" rocks).
The main aim of Piero Gilardi is to decontextualize. He recreates a natural atmosphere in an internal space. He wishes to release the object from its weight, and at the same time he wants the image of the object to continue evocating its natural origin.
Avoiding any association with traditional furniture, Gilardi creates an amusing and subversive design style that is as much a work of art as a functional object. The artificial rocks are an oxymoron, a new kind of design that changes the traditional parameters of the visual and tactile perceptions.

- Dom Pérignon Balloon VenusBy Jeff KoonsLocated in New York, NYBalloon Dog is an iconic work within the highly acclaimed Celebration series, which JEFF KOONS began in the mid 1990s. The Celebration artworks reference certain times of year (holidays and birthdays) but also the celebration of the cycle of life. What else could suggest the cheer of children’s parties more eloquently than a colorful balloon, twisted into the instantly recognizable form of a dog.
