“Dein Entwurf wurde ein einziges Mal umgesetzt, aber - wie auch die restlichen Entwürfe - weder vervielfältigt noch für eine tatsächliche Nutzung verteilt. Den Nachbau hat eine junge Frau gefertigt, die derzeit eine Lehre zur Tischlerin macht. Für mich ist diese Geste eine Art der Partizipation und ein Kontrast zu den Kriterien der Einzigartigkeit bzw. Individualität, auf denen Kunst und ihre Geschichtsschreibungen basieren.” Eva Engelbert de- und rekonstruiert historische Erzählungen durch Abstraktion, Verschränkung und Nachahmung. Ausgangspunkt dieses Buches war der Wettbewerb Einfacher Hausrat (k. k. Kunstgewerbeschule Wien, 1916), dessen Ziel es war, preis- werte Möbel für die verarmte Bevölkerung zu schaffen. Die entstandenen Konstruktionszeichnungen dienen Engelbert diese Geste eine Art der als Quelle mit widerständigem Potenzial.

"Your design was executed only once, but – like the other designs – neither reproduced nor distributed for actual use. The reconstruction was carried out by a young woman currently training as a carpenter. For me, this gesture represents a form of participation and stands in contrast to the criteria of uniqueness and individuality upon which art and its historiography are often based." Eva Engelbert deconstructs and reconstructs historical narratives through abstraction, interweaving, and imitation. The starting point for this book was the Einfacher Hausrat (Simple Household Goods) competition (k.k. Kunstgewerbeschule Vienna, 1916), which aimed to create affordable furniture for impoverished populations. The construction drawings that emerged from this competition serve Engelbert as a source with subversive potential.
