'The art of chess' is an exhibition of seven chess sets created by a group of contemporary
artist including Jake and Dinos chapman, Tracey Emin, Tom Friedman, Damien hirst, Barbara Kruger, Alastair Mackie and Rachel Whiteread. Each artist infused their own interpretation of the board game in real dimensions.
My favorite set is this by Tom Friedman. I love the idea that the table could exist on it's own as a simple table, yet once you set ordinary household objects on it, it turns into a chess set.The exhibition is set to open on the 49th edition of Milan Furniture Fair on April 14th
at Project b gallery, in Milan . This event which is part of the Fuori Salone will be on display
until April 29th.
