Vienna 1990, black painted bent iron bars, height ca. 190 cm, width ca. 190 cm, depth ca. 60 cm. (MHA)
“The lines of the individual parts reach out into the space, meeting each other and thereby becoming a spatial sculpture, for which its function as a piece of furniture is only a stage of the nexus that has been formed. These useful components, set in a different spatial order, are extended by us according to the space, which forms a new ‘RAUMDEZVOUS’. This piece of furniture is therefore not a silent conformer of convention usage, but rather emerges as a unique coinhabitant.” (Gruppe B. R. A. N. D. in: Wohnen von Sinnen, Cologne 1986). Commissioned work for the Management Club, Kärntnerstrasse 8, 1010 Vienna
Provenance: Private ownership, Vienna.
Cf. Lit.: G. Koller, Die Radikalisierung der Phantasie, Design aus Österreich, Salzburg 1987, p. 321. Wohnen von Sinnen, Cologne, 1986, pp. 141, 142. Austrian Architecture and Design Beyond Tradition in the 1990’s, The Art Institute of Chicago, Berlin, 1991, pp. 72–77 (comparisons).
