Honour Cheap Furniture by Martí Guixé
Honour Cheap Furniture by Martí Guixé
On 19 December in La Galleria Nazionale, Martí Guixé will write the tag “Honour Cheap Furniture” on 150 white and 30 green monobloc chairs, along with 5 green monobloc tables, in an open performance. The chairs and tables will then be part of the furnishings at the museum auditorium and in la Sala delle Colonne, to be used as normal chairs and tables.

To attend the performance write an email to info@lagallerianazionale.com

Honour Cheap Furniture is the third version of the Statement Chair Series, in which Martí Guixé  has addressed the phenomenon of  cheap industrial products and designer chair “labels”. The classic monobloc plastic chair has many qualities of good design: it is inexpensive, democratic, technically plausible, functional, and robust; however, it suffers from a bad reputation.
