The Philadelphia Museum of Art is pleased to announce Sebastian Errazuriz: double take, a mid-career survey by artist and designer Sebastian Errazuriz (b. 1977, Chile) that will explore Errazuriz’s multi-hyphenate practice spanning art, craft, design, and technology, from antiquity-inspired furniture to multimedia work informed by artificial intelligence.

The exhibition will present over 20 years of making, including early conceptual works that take nature and existing found objects as sources of inspiration, along with furniture, mirrors, and other products that the designer creates from appropriated and digitally manipulated Greco-Roman antiquities.

Also on display will be a range of the designer’s “kinetic” cabinets, defined by their moveable elements. Errazuriz is interested in disrupting the idea that cabinets must consist of a box with two front doors, or "exploding the box," as the artist describes his approach. Instead, objects in Double Take propose a dynamic way of living with furniture that rotates, spins, and fans out in different directions.‍‍‍​​‌​‌‌​‌​​​‍‍​‍​‍​‌‍​‌‍​​​‍‍​​​​​​​​​‍​​‍‌​​‍​​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‍​​​‍​​‍‌​‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍​​​‌​​​​​​​‌‍​​‌​‌‍​‍‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‍​‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​‍​​​​‌​​‌​​​​‍​​‌​‍​​‍​‌​‌​‍​​‍​‌​​​‌‍​‌​​‌‍​‌‌​‍​‍​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‍​‌‍​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‍​​​‍​​‍‌​‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍​​​‌​​​​​​​‌‍​​‌​‌‍​‍‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​‍​​​​‌​​‌​​​​‍​​‌​‍​​‍​‌​‌​‍​​‍​‌​​​‌‍​‌​​‌‍​‌‌​‍​‍​‌‌
