Galerie Kitsuné is pleased to welcome it’s first exhibition featuring “A chair is a chair is a chair” by Mexican artist Mario Navarro & balcony magazine.

“A chair is a chair is a chair” opens March 17, 2022 at Galerie Kitsuné, Brooklyn and remains on view through April 3, 2022. Curated by balcony, the exhibition features new colored pencil drawings by Mexican artist Mario Navarro. Begun as a pastime during the height of the Covid lockdown, the drawings included in this exhibition are a humorous, at times biting meditation on the precarity of Modernism. ‘Chair No 14’, a classic design by German-Austrian designer Michael Thonet, plays the title character in a series of pencil-on-paper drawings which toy, twist, and play with ideas of appropriation, consumption, and permanence. Organized in collaboration with balcony magazine’s second issue, “A chair is a chair is a chair” connects scenes from the everyday with an iconic subject of Modernist design.

This is the first exhibition curated by balcony, a bi-annual print magazine dedicated to art in the everyday.
