2 austrian marriage chairs/ Happy Woman Happy Life by Markus Friedrich Staab
About the Item
These chairs are 1940s Farmhouse chairs from the Black Forest in Germany. They are hand carved and they symbolize a good relationship between man and woman. These kind of chairs where often presented as a wedding gift. They are hand painted, multi-lacquered and reshaped. Top condition and functional art pieces. For real use or to be seen as sculptures
Through my work I transform each chair into a unique and individual object. Chairs that once were mass-produced and homogenous, become singular and unique: re-cycled, re-furbished, re-mixed and re-decorated.
I am particularly interested to give value and meaning to something that has been overlooked. To free the object from its traditional use and turn it into something special. Through this process the chair that was once used on a daily basis, becomes a self-sufficient piece of art. Hereby we explore traditional historical objects that gain value by a mere change of perspective. It is these themes of chairs as sculptural objects and art as object of utility that I am particularly fascinated by.
It is the love for the daily things that we surround ourselves with, their unique shape and expression, that give me hope that not all is lost to pure consumerism and IKEAlisation.
