Knitwear ceiling - 2011
Performative sculptures
Erwin Wurm removes the initial function of old furniture by tilting it; wardrobe becomes table or chair... and thus takes away its original function. The object gets a new function and becomes furniture once again.
During the exhibition - every day at 16.00 - a person performs the renewed function.
This remarquable object reminded me of a sculpture I saw a few years ago ...
Erwin Wurm - Tate Modern at Kunsthaus Zürich, Switserland.
A group performance with clothes and furniture will take place on Saturday 6 August at 20.00 and on Sunday 25 September at 16.00.
