About
The mystifying ‘Broadway’ chairs by Gaetano Pesce feature colorful epoxy resin seats and backrests with stainless steel structures and rubber feet standing on springs. In Gaetano’s words:
“The springs on the feet are to give a sense of insecurity, there is insecurity in our reality, we see it in violence, there is economic insecurity, there is insecurity in our health... when you sit you do not feel secure that is like the reality of life.” (Gaetano Pesce)
