What artists use chairs/furniture in their work?
I am a GCSE Art student and currently working on a still life based on chairs. For my coursework, I need to include an artist reference that relates to my still life. What artists have used chairs or furniture as a theme in their work, or in a series of pieces?
Unfortunately it has to be a central theme in the piece. Are there any contemporary artists who have done a piece or series of pieces based on chairs or furniture?
