The Italian designer Vico Magistretti created this fiberglass stacking chair, manufactured by Artemide, USA. Light and easily portable, the chair was ideal for casual seating arrangements. In 1973 this chair and others were purchased as seating furniture for the multimedia lounge of the Yale University Art Gallery's Mabel Brady Garvan Galleries.
