Gustave Serrurier-Bovy (Liège 1858-1910 Antwerp) Pair of armchairs ('ouvrier' series), circa 1904 Oak, black-painted iron and woven straw H 93 x W 50 x D 50 cm Produced by 'Serrurier et Cie' Literature: F. Bigot du Mesnil du Buisson & E. du mesnil du buisson, Serrurier-Bovy 'un créateur précurseur' 1858-1910, Paris, Faton, 2008 p. 150; Jacques-Grégoire Watelet, Serrurier-Bovy, Ateliers Vokaer, Bruxelles, 1986, pp. 88-89 A true manifesto of Gustave Serrurier-Bovy’s principles, this pair of armchairs, illustrated in Art Décoratif in 1904, embodies the foundations of the artist’s thinking. Functionality, clarity, simplicity of materials and lines - the use of oak and a backrest secured with simple iron screws, initially functional and subsequently decorative, together with a rush seat - are all characteristic of his approach. His commitment to serial production, allowing his work to reach a wider audience, further demonstrates his progressive vision. Together, these elements place Gustave Serrurier-Bovy at the forefront of modernity.
