The Strange And Poignant Tale Of The Red Chairs Abandoned In A Polish Forest In 1939...

There's a beautiful and poignant story doing the rounds about these little red chairs being set out for a wedding in a Polish forest way back in 1939. The German invasion troops caused the wedding to be abruptly abandoned and the chairs were found many years later with trees growing through them. Each and every year the chairs are lovingly repainted. So the story goes.
In reality, they are images in the wonderful portfolio of conceptual artist, sculptor and photographer Patrick Demazeau whose work often includes the juxtaposition of furniture and nature. The trees spend their lives standing and are perhaps offering seats to the walkers, wanderers and dreamers who might pass.
But one should never let the facts get in the way
of a good story...
