" When I first saw the pictures of Mano a Mano two years ago, I didn’t care if it conformed to WAF dimensions or if it was built to last. I just loved it so much instead. Without a doubt, Mano a Mano was the most beautiful armwrestling table I had ever seen, and it still is in my opinion. " “Mano a Mano is a regulation-size arm-wrestling table built on massive legs. However, it is not a regular arm-wresting table. The rusty steel top, worn leather elbow rests, and sweat-stained pin pads, and walnut enclosure conceal electronics that sense and process the wrestling match. Players discover that the table reacts to the back-and-forth movement of their interlocked grip. The table detects hand and arm location as players exert force and press for victory, and the table responds by playing pre-recorded sounds. Arm wrestling stirs images of muscles and gambling: power and greed on a man-to-man scale; one-on-one competition across and around a back-room table. The design of the table evokes but also extends the image. The massive, square design recalls the imposing shape of a fortress with corner towers. Players become soldiers who look one another in the eye and, while they compete, hear the voice of an unseen person: a drill sergeant barking orders. The voice, however, is female. She calls out passersby, outlines rules, starts the contest, chides those who cheat, and berates underachievers. The table borrows an image from the battlefield and a voice from boot camp. Mano a Mano is a metaphor. Soldiers engage in hand-to-hand combat and hear a master sergeant’s instructions. The sergeant berates, and the language is sexist and abusive; it is a language that creates warriors. They are not praised or encouraged; they are insulted, and this goads them. The voice deforms their humanity and devalues what they defend. They are little girls, not valiant men, yet wars are said to be fought for those back home. War dehumanizes, and the voice of war dehumanizes soldiers. They are incited to fight by verbal abuse. Ironically, the abuse does not come from the opponent but from the sergeant, and those who play the game seem to derive a measure of satisfaction from it. The work emphasizes the liminal and crosses boundaries: game and war; wood and steel; worn table and new technology; male stereotype and female voice; victory and pain.” Sursa: cookbob.wordpress.com/2011/01/08/mano-a-mano-armwrestling-table-%EB%A7%88%EB%85%B8-%EC%96%B4-%EB%A7%88%EB%85%B8-%ED%8C%94%EC%94%A8%EB%A6%84-%ED%85%8C%EC%9D%B4%EB%B8%94/CHIAR E SUPERBA MASA !

" The concept of the project is tied specifically to the event. The sculpture itself is an arm wrestling table. It is a place for competition and dialogue, and after the tournament is over, it exists as relic that holds the energy of the actions that took place on it. It is a bit like walking onto an empty baseball field or stadium just after a game; the energy of the event can be felt even in its absence. Through this project Davey seeks to challenge the idea that everything has a price. The trophies, and therefore all the feelings accompanying them, are not for sale; they must be earned. Davey also challenges the system of hierarchy he feels so deeply instituted in the art world. The wrestling table serves as a democratic medium for personal power. Each person who sits at the table is equal, no matter how prominent his/her social position. The table will be open for challenges throughout FLUX. There will also be a one-hour tournament from which a male and female winner will emerge. Both winners will receive trophies. "
