Beschreibung
With his Fat Cars and Tiny Houses, his sculptures of cucumbers, and sausages, Erwin Wurm (b. 1954) shines a critical spotlight on consumer societys manipulative mechanisms and their effects. On the occasion of Wurms 70th birthday this extensive catalogue documents all of the important stations of Erwin Wurms artistic career to date. Wurm uses shifted proportions and new angles on objects of everyday life to gain new perspectives and insights into our world and our lives. Alongside his main works, this presentation also aims to introduce the public to less well-known but equally significant works and work groups. The resulting selection will form a dense network of artistic statements comprising sculptures, drawings, working instructions and documentation, videos, objects, photographs and paintings.
