The artwork, titled “Chairs,” is an installation piece created by the artist Robert Morris in 2001. It belongs to the Conceptual Art movement and is presented as an installation genre.
The artwork features an arrangement of chairs situated in a circular formation within a bright, spacious room characterized by large windows that allow abundant natural light to fill the space. Each chair is draped and seemingly enshrouded in a fabric or material that, while appearing pliable, maintains structure and form, eliciting a sense of mystery and stillness. The draped material transforms the ordinary chairs into a more sculptural and enigmatic presence, challenging the viewers’ perceptions and inviting contemplation on the nature of objects and their meanings within conceptual frameworks. The minimalist setting further accentuates the peculiar nature of the installation, encouraging an introspective observation of both the individual elements and the composition as a whole.
