Historically, circular desks have been unique pieces of furniture that, due to their distinctive shape, offer advantages over traditional rectangular desks. Found in large libraries and the offices of some of history’s most distinguished figures, the circular desk has facilitated the gathering of vast amounts of information and has provided new ways to access knowledge.
Both artists have chosen this unusual desk as a foundation for dialogue and the blending of their practices and attitudes. This piece of furniture serves as a constant point of negotiation between two artists who come from very different artistic backgrounds.
GENERACIÓN 2013
Proyectos de arte Caja Madrid
Many of the authors of Generación 2013 agree that in their respective projects—directly, without any artifice—concepts such as emptiness, ruin, loss, and disappearance are addressed; an approach that, in tune with current events in the world, is open to enrichment through multiple interpretations by viewers.
