Hans Kupelwieser, Erdäpfelvierer [Potato Quartet], 2007
, Aluminium cast, 140 x 250 x 220 cm
Kollitsch Collection
When choosing his subjects, Hans Kupelwieser turns his attention to everyday objects that are only marginally significant in the world of art. He explores their potential as exhibits and gives them a new aesthetic function. In this way, even potatoes are elevated to true-to-scale protagonists in an aluminium sculpture, in which the artist constantly explores the boundary between coincidence and artistic intervention.
