Follow-up to the 2022 design hit The Spirit of Chairs.Conceived as an opera in four acts, the exhibition documented in this book brings to life the chair collection of Swiss entrepreneur Thierry Barbier-Mueller (1960–2023). Through the scenography of the renowned American director Robert Wilson (1941–2025), a succession of evocative atmospheres articulates the sculptural, singular presence of each piece. A Chair and You recounts the mise-en-scène of the exhibition. Image sequences convey its dramaturgy while original texts shed light on the exhibition’s genesis, the close relationship between collector and director and the creative dialogue that shaped their project.
