Hatstand, Table and Chair
''Hatstand'', ''Table'' and ''Chair'' are a group of three erotic sculptures by British pop artist Allen Jones, created in 1969 and first exhibited in 1970. They have been described in retrospect as "emblematic of the spirit of the 1960s" and an "international sensation." At the time they were met with angry protests, particularly from feminists who saw them as an objectification of women.
==Description==
''Hatstand, Table'' and ''Chair'' are three fibreglass sculptures of women transformed into items of furniture. They are each dressed with wigs, and are naked apart from their corsets, gloves and leather boots.〔 Each is slightly larger than life-size.〔 (Text from ''The Tate Gallery 1980-82: Illustrated Catalogue of Acquisitions'', London, 1984)〕 For ''Chair'' the woman lies curled on her back, a seat cushion on her thighs and her legs acting as a back rest. ''Table'' is a woman on all fours, with a sheet of glass supported on her back. For ''Hat Stand'' the woman is standing, tall, her hands upturned as hooks.
Each fibreglass figure was produced from drawings by Jones. He oversaw a professional sculptor, Dick Beech, who produced the figures in clay. The three female figures were then cast by a model company, Gems Wax Models Ltd, who specialised in producing shop mannequins. Each figure was produced in an edition of six.〔
Jones explained that they weren't illustrations of scenes, but rather that "the figure is a device for a painting or a sculpture. It’s not a portrayal of someone – it’s a psychological construction."
