Six Chairs: Robert Cumming

I remember when a few chairs from the Art Department made their way home as a child. A stool not unlike the one above was a preferred seat in the studio, even though a student painted a swastika on it (I eventually I asked my father if I could sand it off and he complied). Each time I see these two photographs, I laugh (an action that needs to happen more often these days).
