Edition of 6, signed and numbered.
Time and Capsule : frames and stools by John Armleder, produced and released by WE DO NOT WORK ALONE.
John Armleder’s Time frames offer to purchase the enhancement and hanging device of an artwork rather than the artwork itself.
Glitters, familiar elements of the Swiss artist’s paintings, are smoothly layered by a motorbikes and car decoration painter to cover the minimal shape of the thick wooden frame.
Time and Capsule’s minimalist shapes are asserted and yet neutralized by the layer of glitter. They become fractales surfaces constituted by an incalculable number of minuscule elements arranged by chance. They might also joyfully embrace the possibility of cheap failures.
Time and Capsule are two complementary editions. Associated to one another they function as a Furniture Sculpture, the celebrated body of work initiated by Armleder in 1979 that combines paintings and furniture.
