2/internal/media/dispatcher/73713/fulle 14/1 sculptor2014[Hans Kupelwieser]Hans KupelwieserStainless steel, polishedObjects and sculptures generally intrigue observers with their multitude of views. In Hans Kupelwieser’s work, this effect is further enhanced by its irregular shape and reflective surface. Reflection has a dual meaning here, as not only the visual phenomenon, as such, is in the foreground but also its content-related component. When metals are employed in Hans Kupelwieser’s oeuvre, their qualities are thwarted, as it were, by the artistic processing. Nonetheless, what is reminiscent of crumpled paper on an enlarged scale, weighs 270 kilograms. The crushing is carried out by means of an excavator. Of course, with this process an exact prognosis of the result is impossible, but for the artist it is precisely this principle of guided chance that has become an important category in his creation.Object arthttps://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/objects/50691/rdf/internal/media/dispatcher/36199/fullOn Which Side Am I Actually Standing?2004[Markus Hofer]Markus HoferMirror, acrylicObject arthttps://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/objects/26699/rdf
