拍品专文

"With his Ultimate Art Furniture, Constantin Boym uses the painted canvas - in this case exuberant, heartfelt renditions of Baroque religious-themed masterworks, as a ‘new material’, Art, with which to construct furniture. In response (or as retaliation?) to the Art World’s appropriation of Design, wherein a wooden chair, for example, is placed on a pedestal and subsequently experienced as abstract sculpture, Boym reverses the process: Art is torn from the wall, ripped from its frame, and wrought – albeit most respectfully and sensitively – into what we now experience as a chair or a table." - Murray Moss

The 'Ultimate Art Furniture' Series was designed for MOSS design store in New York in 2006. Each piece is unique and features a copy of a Baroque painting, the present lot with Saint Andrew by Spanish painter Jusepe di Ribera (1631).
