Erwin Wurm

-Erwin Wurm is an Austrian artist born in 1954, who does a lot of really interesting sculptural works. His work is produced almost with no thought beforehand and are mostly about his depictions of everyday life. He thinks that it is very important for his works to provoke humor in them as well, which was something that really brought me into wanting to look at his work. For example, the piece I have selected below is called Idiot I.
