Anyone who has visited a museum has likely seen Scott’s work, you just didn’t know it. Maybe you sat on it. As people have said about his work it blurred the line between functionality and art. No doubt eliciting the response, “I could have done that“, but you didn’t, did you? His work and those like him I would argue “create the mood” in an art setting that allows you to even begin to appreciate what’s on the walls. Artistic foreplay as it were. The simple act of sitting down becomes special. As you enter the next room of a gallery likely the first thing your brain sees is the benches, chairs and tables. It was pointed out many of his works were used for function and esthetics in office parks and downtown metropolitan areas for office workers.

Scott lived from 1939 – 1989, he was from Greensboro, AL. He was a writer and editor for Art News and Art in America. (Russian Constructivism)
