In his series Together Naturally, Haim Steinbach has decided to present chosen everyday objects on laminated wood with each shelf being specific to the object displayed. The shelves are not merely the supports for the objects, but color, textures and surfaces are all
in accordance with the objects’ characteristics and arrangements, emphasising the value of both the shelf and the object. Together Naturally, like other of his installations, involves repetition with two stacks of five wooden identical plates.

Haim Steinbach, an Israeli-born American, living and working in New York since 1953, through his arrangements of existing objects on shelfs explores the space between objects, with the intention to reveal something about the pieces themselves. Steinbach makes arrangements of found or existing objects on a shelfs in a normative disposition, highlighting the relationship between space and silence. Steinbach’s sculptures of assembled items bring back into question the limits of art and the role of the artist as a collector and curator of cultural artifacts. The artist is concerned more with the value of objects than with the value of so-called art. Steinbach’s use of everyday objects to create his assemblages, is reminiscent of the approach of readymade works of art introduced by the French artist Marcel Duchamp in 1913. His appropriation art not only refers to the Duchampian readymade but in a sense also insinuates the reconsideration of objects effected by Pop art and hyperrealism. Through the object's repositions, Steinbach embellishes the objects evocative of consumerism. Whereas these objects can be found on a department store shelf, here through their representation on wooden shelves designed specifically for the object they are put on a pedestal and take on another value. Today, Steinbach’s works are held in the collections of the Tate Modern in London, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, among others.
