info In Hutten’s work this process of simplification can be traced back to the study of objects that are so basic that they become symbolic, not symbols, of everyday life at any time in history and in all parts of the world, with the addition of a personal vein with a tinge of Surrealism, almost in the style of Magritte. Like Magritte, Hutten chooses objects, in this case furniture, that are virtually timeless, like the table made up of a surface, four crosspieces and four legs, and uses commonplace materials and methods, just like the Belgian master used an anonymous style of painting that was deliberately devoid of any artistic agreeableness. Through successive degrees of manipulation, assembly, changes in scale and repetitions, Hutten not only explores the possible forms or different uses of the table but also a universe of combinations that, among other mental and ironic aspects, can give rise to unusual or unpredictable versions.
