Strange furniture

Sala Vinçon, Barcelona 1987

 

with Uli Marchsteiner

 

"We organised this interesting exhibition to present the first series of the Gaulino chair. We built a giant skeleton of an antediluvian marine animal made from pieces of the chair and we hung it from the ceiling.  On the day of the opening we set up an architect’s table and covered it with drawings and sketches of the chair. Sitting next to the table in a couple of Gaulinos were Antoni Gaudí (on loan from the Barcelona Wax Museum) and a young model in homage to Carlo Mollino."
