Interview: Erwin Wurm on his Humanoid Sculptures

Erwin Wurm likes to distort forms. Over the years, he has slimmed down houses, fattened up cars, and used his own body to redesign the shape of furniture. “A lot of my work is about destroying one thing to create another,” the Austrian artist says of his process. One of his latest series, Stone , continues this exploration by setting small rocks on a pair of legs, giving a twist to the expression “carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders”. The small humanoid sculptures recall the Hypnosis series Wurm created in 2008, when Wurm used potato-like shapes to form the torso and head of a body in a highly polished aluminium finish on top of legs, in a contrasting matte finish. In the Stone series, the shiny aluminium potato shape has been replaced by a rock covered in greenish moss. Each work has a distinct and expressive personality due to the treatment of the white acrylic resin legs (variously posed, either standing, running, barefoot, or dressed). Inspired b

Opening - Jakkai Siributr @ Tyler Rollins Fine Art in NY

Thai contemporary artist Jakkai Siributr’s ‘Karma Cash & Carry’ exhibition is opening at Tyler Rollins Fine Art today. Siributr primarily works with textile and he’s known for producing meticulously handmade tapestry and installation works that make strong statements about religious, social, and political issues in contemporary Thailand. A main preoccupation of his art is the interaction of Buddhism and materialism in modern life, and the everyday popular culture of Thailand. Alluding to the way contemporary Thai popular religion incorporates such practices as fortune telling and winning lottery number prediction, Siributr organizes the exhibition around his conception of a karmic convenience store, where merit can be bought and sold. He makes use of found objects associated with bringing good fortune, integrating them into his elaborate compositions of Thai fabrics, embroidery, and hand stitched sequined work.

Is there still anything new to learn about Leonardo da Vinci?

Five hundred years after his death, the world still marvels at the genius of Leonardo da Vinci, the Renaissance master who painted the Mona Lisa, but also left behind around 7,200 pages that documented his life’s work, often in scribbles and sketches. From detailing how the aortic valve in the heart works to creating an underwater diving apparatus, a glider, and the precursor to the helicopter, Leonardo left a wealth of scientific studies and mechanical inventions that are still studied today. “Even after 500 years, Leonardo remains the greatest artist-scientist — he was not just a great artist who dabbled in the sciences; had he not painted a single work, his scientific researches would still mark him out as one of the great figures of the Renaissance. To combine both achievements in a single individual is quite remarkable,” says Martin Clayton, Head of Prints and Drawings at the Royal Collection Trust and curator of the Leonardo da Vinci: A Life in Drawing, an exhibitio

An Art Patron's Extraordinary Life

Peggy Guggenheim was no ordinary art collector. In her lifetime, she acquired a treasure trove of Cubist and Surrealist artworks at bargain price right before the onset of the Second World War; she ran art galleries in London and New York championing then-little known artists such as Jackson Pollock and Robert Motherwell; and she also played a significant role in positioning Venice as a contemporary art city after she moved there permanently in 1948. After her death in 1978, her Venetian home, the 18th-century Palazzo Venier dei Leoni, was transformed into a permanent exhibition space housing the Peggy Guggenheim Collection. It is now the second most visited museum in the city after the Dodge’s Palace with over 427,000 visitors a year. But while her collection is primarily renowned for its Cubist, Surrealist and Abstract Expressionist masterpieces, the new exhibition “Peggy Guggenheim: The Last Dogaressa” – running until January 27, 2020 - is aiming to showcase how wide

An Art Collecting Journey with Han Nefkens

Han Nefkens Foundation – LOOP BARCELONA Video Art Production Award 2018 in collaboration with the Fundació Joan Miró - Thao Nguyen Phan Han Nefkens has had an unusual art collecting journey. While he’s often described as a collector – he has, after all, bought more than 500 artworks – the description doesn’t quite give justice to the scope of his involvement in the art world. All too often wealthy buyers hoard their collections in a warehouse, maybe rotating some around their properties and occasionally loaning a few works when it suits them. Nefkens’ approach to buying is refreshingly generous works he buys are lent immediately to museums on a long term basis with an agreement that most loans will be left as bequests. And while he started buying existing artworks for the last thirteen years he has only commissioned new works. The Han Nefkens Foundation offers several Video Arts Awards every year to support artists in their artistic endeavour, and these come with total cr
