Jan Mancuska
2004, 800 Ways To Describe A Chair, Dimensions Variable, gunshot remnants on wall
Jan Mancuska was born in Bratislava, Slovakia. Mancuska works intesively with linguistic and object interpretations. In “800 Ways To Describe a Chair”, Mancuska placed a chair against the gallery wall, and fired hundreds and hundreds of shots at it with a pellet gun. The chair is removed leaving behind a silhouette, a ghost of itself.
