PK71 <br />
POUL KJÆRHOLM 1957<br />
The PK71 is comprised of three nesting tables that can be stored<br />
underneath one another. The tables and their continued, threedimensional<br />
form represent the �rst time Kjærholm used the square<br />
in all three dimensions of his work. They can be seen as the<br />
precursor of his larger and more complex tables. The toy-like<br />
character of the small and abstract tables makes them very dynamic<br />
and invites you to move them around. Kjærholm often stacked the<br />
naked frames as sculptural symbols to illustrate the elemental quality<br />
of his other work. The importance of the PK71 is illustrated by the<br />
fact that the tables are included in the permanent collection of the<br />
Museum of Modern Art in New York. The tops are made of either<br />
black, white, red or umbra green acrylic and the square base is in<br />
satin-brushed stainless steel.<br />
