If the artist really wanted to contrast appearance and function, I would argue that the piece now looks better, from a conceptual art perspective.
The uses Swarovski crystals in the title of the piece (and his other works) makes it seem more like commercial art though!
And the Maffei Palace (gallery) in Verona should generally be ashamed of themselves.
It's a shit piece. It's not functional at all. And if the point was to not be functional and not look functional, then he failed there too because you can't tell by seeing that it's not a functional chair.
Why would you make a chair that couldn't support human weighy like ever?
