About the art
Artist statement
The table lamp 'Cosa Nostra' is an sculptural lamp made in a highly polished acrylic glass and with a base in leather.
Table lamp dimension: L25 W25 H27cm.
Source of illumination: LED, wiring for US and European market available.
Observing from different angles the reflection creates the sight of one or more revolvers drawing in the acrylic glass: Impossible to understand which is the real or the reflected image.
We took a revolver, deadly and provocative, put it on display without any taboo, even illuminating it.
But at the same time locking it up in a solid block of acrylic glass, visible, fascinating but completely untouchable, useless.
The lamp is named after a sadly enough very famous killing machinery:
The Cosa Nostra.
Each lamp is hand signed and numbered by the artists (engraved). 100% handmade in Italy, comes with a “Certificate of Authenticity”.
The artworks by Barberini & Gunnell are regularly shown at international art fairs, such as PAD London, PAD Genève, PAD Monaco, Salon Art & Design New York, ArtMiami.
