Brutalist stool; Spain, 1960s.
Carved wood.
Measurements: 35 x 29 x 29 cm.
Brutalist stool made of carved wood in Spain during the 1960s. With a solid structure and three legs, it stands out for the expressiveness of its forms and for the value of the raw material, fundamental features of the brutalist aesthetics applied to furniture.
Inspired by the principles of brutalism, a movement that defended constructive sincerity and the beauty of materials in an almost primitive state, this stool exhibits a sculptural carving in which the grain, textures and irregularities of the wood form an essential part of its appeal. Its design combines functionality and artistic presence.
