Ai Weiwei
New Commission
Campbelltown Arts Centre will present the new commission Marble Chair which is in the Song Dynasty style and is carved from a single block of marble.
“And the marble chair is made from a solid piece of a stone into a chair, into something which ironically overthrew the idea of the wooden classic chair. The work as one piece is strongly against its own form, its own way of structure. In the kind of making it really dismisses its own meaning. I enjoy that part,” says Ai Weiwei of Marble Chair.
Marble Chair, 2008, marble, 125 x 52 x 50cm.
Commissioned by Campbelltown Arts Centre, Sydney.
