Stuhl Magdalena Jetelová

The entrance to the forecourt of the European Investment Bank  is marked by the huge art work Stuhl (2000). This oversized chair in red-stained solid wood is the work of an artist of Czech origin, Magdalena Jetelovà (born in 1946). The red-stained, rough-finish of the solid wood has been boldly carved to form a sort of natural "addition" to the brutalist architecture of the bank.
