About this work

This painting shows two white, blocky chairs with rounded backs, sitting on a dark wood floor. The chairs look almost like furniture made of painted wood, but the texture is rough and uneven. A pair of yellow glasses lies on the floor between them, tangled up. The chairs don’t quite match real furniture—they’re too stiff, too flat. The artist used real materials, like Formica, to make them look fake. It’s like a trick to make you question what’s real. Look up Richard Artschwager next—he played with real objects and paint in weird ways.
