2000 Series UP7 Foot Up Series

Description

Part of the smooth, somewhat futuristic collection of sculptural furniture pieces known as the UP Series by Gaetano Pesce is a giant polyurethane rubber foot dubbed the UP7. Strangely at odds with the other pieces in the UP Series, the 1.62 metre long foot is possibly an ironic comment on progress as the foot resembles the giant marble foot of the Colossus of Constantine (312-315 AD) in the Capitolini Museum in Rome but made from modern man-made materials. Irrespective of its meaning, the UP7 has an amazing presence in a room and does function as a bench to recline on if needed! This fusion of art, archaeology and design is what makes the UP7 so special and a true Twentieth Century design icon.
