Table with Pink Tablecloth is an artwork by American artist Richard Artschwager, now in the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago.
It is a work in three-dimensions constructed of Formica on wood. Art critic Ken Johnson referred to "Table With Pink Tablecloth" as Artschwager's "most famous sculpture". It was made in 1964 using skills Artschwager gained designing furniture using similar materials and similar techniques. The sculpture measures 64.8 x 111.8 x 111.8 cm (25 1/2 x 44 x 44 in). Stylistically it shares attributes of Pop art and Minimalism.
Artschwager is quoted as saying "It’s not sculptural. It’s more like a painting pushed into three dimensions. It’s a picture of wood."
At the 2009 Venice Biennale, sculptor Rachel Harrison recreated Table with Pink Tablecloth in tribute.
