A manifest re-design of Gerrit Rietveld’s iconic _Rood-Blauwe Stoel_. By the simple act of reproducing and painting this chair in deep blue (*IKB*), it became the _Blauwe Stoel_. Rietveld’s geometric and out of nowhere chair was used as a support to place Yves Klein’s intense dive in monochrome color. The piece follows the parallel made in [[Du style d'aujourd'hui (fr)]] and [[Monochrome Echoes]] between the early modern Dutch movement and the man who wanted to own the sky, as both aspired to expand the limits of space toward an unreachable void. The piece was later exhibited with Frac Grand-Large (Lille). ![[blauwestoel2.jpeg]] ![[blauwe_stoel.jpg]] ![[IMG_3527.jpeg]] ![[64296345956__9B2EE189-7214-4F77-BA27-EF0332FC3E72.jpg]] [[<exhibition>]] [[<graphic design>]] [[<art theory>]] [[<art history>]] [[<design theory>]] [[<research>]] [[<art direction>]] [[<sculpture>]] [[<painting>]] [[<product design>]] [[<prototyping>]] [[<industrial design>]]
