Gallery ghosts

Ghost Stories, an exhibition by Japanese design company Nendo at Friedman Benda, New York.

The installation presents 40 of their Cabbage Chairs embedded in a sea of suspended cords that fill the gallery space creating a visual haze and forces physical participation if you want to see the chairs up close.

Via Core77 when you can see further photos.

And in a similar but quirkier vein there’s Geister by Christine Haase at the Stir Gallery, Shanghai, a series of porcelain statues which look like Canova meets the Addams Family. Via Phantasmaphile via Blood Milk.
