ERWIN WURM
The new exclusive art pop-up in partnership with Galerie bei der Albertina ▪ Zetter, Vienna, displays two stunning sculptures by one of Austria's most significant contemporary artists: Erwin Wurm. “Short Bag” and “Kastenmann” are now exhibited in the centre of the lobby.
His sculptures straddle abstraction and representation, presenting familiar objects in a surprising and inventive way that prompts viewers to consider them in a new light: critical and paradoxical. Erwin Wurm lives and works in Vienna and Limberg, Austria.
Parallel to the major retrospective in the Albertina Modern, the Galerie bei der Albertina ▪ Zetter Albertina ▪ Zetter, located 10 minutes away from the hotel, is showing in their new exhibition space Zetter Projects, its first solo presentation of the artist Erwin Wurm, who is celebrating his 70th birthday this year.
