"Erected in 2007, Aurora's enormous chair appears to be built for a perfectly planned Three Stooges joke. Thanks to one leg broken and removed from the rest of the body – "unglued" – it's perpetually ready for an inhabitant to settle in and immediately fall out. The bright-blue chair is built from powder-coated steel, and its creation came at the culmination of a long-term public-art project the city termed the "Chair Affair." For the series, Aurora residents put together and auctioned off more than 200 chairs, the proceeds of which funded Weed's permanent piece at the entrance of the Aurora Arts District." (from (

"Funded by the Chair Affair Gala, Unglued was created to be humorous and thought provoking. The Chair Affair was a multi-year community art project launched in 2003 by Original Aurora Renewal and its Cultural Arts Action Team, a group of local artists that worked to advance the emerging arts district."
