Comprising two woven synthetic textile works stretched over steel tubular frames, Franz West's *Onkel Stuhl (Uncle Chair)* blurs the boundary between functional furniture and sculptural object. The works embody West's characteristic interest in the relationship between art and the human body, inviting physical engagement while simultaneously challenging conventional notions of utility and aesthetic form. Their tactile, textile surfaces and deliberately ungainly forms carry a playful irreverence that is central to West's broader practice.
