Erwin Wurm, De profundis

Více o knize

The Austrian artist Erwin Wurm (born 1954 in Bruck an der Mur) gained entry into the international art scene many years ago with his One Minute Sculptures, staged and for the most part absurd situations captured on film, and his sculptures that distort objects, such as Fat Car. The heart of this publication is a group of works on a new theme: De profundis. Availing himself of a variety of media, Wurm confronts the actual appearance of the human body in the 21st Century with the Gothic language of the body, a body which arose from an internalised, ascetic spirit.
