About Untitled (Nine Tables)

The artwork, titled “Untitled (Nine Tables),” was created by Rachel Whiteread in 1998. It belongs to the movements of Conceptual Art and Post-Minimalism and represents the genre of installation art.

“Untitled (Nine Tables)” features a symmetrical arrangement of nine concrete castings of tables. Each table is inverted, with the flat tabletop surface resting on the ground and the legs pointing upwards, hidden from view within the solidified forms. The castings’ uniformity and stark minimalism are accentuated by their placement on the bare, smooth floor, invoking a sense of stillness and permanence. The austere presentation and the mass of the concrete material challenge the viewer’s perception of everyday objects, transforming familiar furniture pieces into elements of architectural significance.
