Erwin Wurm



Erwin Wurm's main medium is sculpture although his work is usually documented through photography.  Wurm thinks of his sculptures as an act rather then a static object. I was intrigued by his series of work 'One minute sculptures' which are playful, slapstick and bizarre performances which Wurm has instructed. I liked how his sculptures are awkward, some quite graphic but still comical and amusing giving the viewer a mixture of emotions and feelings towards his work. I also like how from the instructions Wurm leaves, everyone interprets them differently, not just making one sculpture but a range of different interpretations.
