‘back in the good old days’ is a set of ceramic turntables created by geneva based artist fabien clerc.
the project was created for a recent exhibition which investigated the idea of luxury. the installation is
made from glazed earthenware that as been decorated in a very traditional style including small touches
of gold leaf. the turntables are fully functional and sit flanking a white ceramic mixer. the dj set-up sits
on a red table and intends to proposes multiple forms of luxury; the obvious materiality of the pieces
and the more subtle idea of luxury as a way of life.

would LOVE to buy one of these, unless the cartridges are ceramic too and not magnetic.

I thin you'll find it's supposed to be more simbolic than functional. I, for one, love them. Very clever idea, keep it coming Fabien.
