Paris, metallic paint on plastic (polyester, polystyrene) approx. 34 x 106.6 x 55.8 cm Provenance: Art: Concept, Paris Christie's, New York, 11 May 2016, lot 545, Purchasedat at the above sale by the previous owner ...Times have become more sensitive. Even regarding your work. For example, do you now call the "Fat Car" the "Big Car" to avoid fat-shaming? We have to somehow get along with our time. Just recently, in Yorkshire Park, they didn't exhibit the "Fat Car" or the "Fat House." I realized that people really feel hurt by it. I wanted to do something about that. The titles come from a completely different time, and I was also concerned with something entirely different—namely the gaining and losing of weight as a sculptural process.

    Erwin Wurm Gherkin (Desperate Philosophers) 2009 aluminium, fabric h. 48 cm; edition: 5/6 numbered, signed and dated: 5/6 Erwin Wurm 2009 foundry stamp on the reverse: Art Casting Belgium directly from the artist; since then private property, Austria cf. Erwin Wurm, exhibition catalogue, Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus und Kunstbau Munich, Munich 2009, ill. w/o. p. Art doesn’t always have to be serious, as the Austrian sculptor Erwin Wurm has proved time and again. For over two decades, Wurm has been one of the fixed stars in Austrian contemporary art. With exhibitions and galleries across the globe from London to Paris to Seoul, the artist, who was born in 1954 in Styria, also plays a leading role in the international art circus. In addition to the "One-Minute Sculptures" or "Fat Sculptures", Wurm is also known for his pickled gherkins. Sometimes small, sometimes larger than life, as in Salzburg’s Old Town, the green vegetable can be seen as a projection of the human being. Just as each cucumber is unique in its shape, each individual is also unmistakable in his or her physiognomy. Wit and irony are of course always present in Wurm's mental universe. He himself once said, "I simply grew up in the late 50s and early 60s, and the pickled gherkin was simply the symbol of a certain social class. I come from a petty bourgeois family – my grandfather was a railway man, my father was a policeman – and the pickled gherkin was diligently consumed and also went into the sausage sandwich for my school lunch. The gherkin was basically always around!" (GRID – Zeitschrift für Gestaltung, Munich 2013, p. 68). Wurm’s iconic sculpture has long achieved cult status. In this version, too, the gherkin is declared a cult object, whereby the humorous aspect is also strongly in evidence here. Both the silver torso and the pickled gherkin can be interpreted as Wurm’s self-portrait as he has, after all, already depicted himself as a pickled gherkin several times. The work is a wonderful testimony to the fact that Wurm can also laugh at himself. (Stefan Üner)

    ERWIN WURM: "LIEGEN AUF ELTERNHAUS"

    Est: €35,000 - €70,000

    Erwin Wurm "Liegen auf Elternhaus" 2012 bronze, silver plated 36 x 77 x 42 cm monogrammed and numbered at the side: E.W. 5/5 private property, Austria With the "readymades" of the beginning/middle of the twentieth century, the customary definition of sculpture changed radically. The boundaries between genres became blurred, and to this day the concept of sculpture is constantly being expanded and put into question. Erwin Wurm, one of the most sought-after contemporary artists, deals intensively with this topic and, in a wide variety of approaches, challenges the viewing habits and socially determined patterns of our society. Wurm’s diverse works range from temporary human sculptures (One-Minute Sculptures) and absurdly dimensioned everyday objects (such as "Narrow House" or "Police Hat"), marks left in dust, dressed furniture, cucumber and sausage sculptures, all the way to what are probably his best-known objects – his fat cars and houses. Wurm disarranges and deforms familiar everyday objects, reducing their functions and sculptural qualities to absurdity. Cars and houses that fall out of their usual role through a distortion of form and humanisation seem to the artist particularly well-suited for this purpose. Wurm attracted a great deal of attention with "Narrow House" (2010), an extremely narrowed-down model of his parents’ home in Graz – including the interior furnishings. Between 2005 and 2016, several "Melting Houses" were created, including deformed models of the Flatiron Building, the Guggenheim and the Wittgenstein House; for one exhibition in Munich, Wurm even placed a small, already melting, butter house on a slice of brown bread. Confusion as a creative strategy is the artist’s creed: "When people laugh it can be good or bad. But humour is not the centre of my work. My work is very much related to the absurd. I love absurdist theatre. I think our reality is so fucking crazy as it is that it’s necessary to look at it from as many angles as possible. That's my recipe." ("The artist who swallowed the world", Peter Marino in an interview with Erwin Wurm, in: Interview no. 534, Winter 2020, New York USA, pp. 88 - 103) (Ina Waldstein)

The inspiration for this work came from a visit to a famous church in Rome, which was decorated with baroque ornaments made of human bones. This experience triggered the artist's desire to address the transience of life and transform it into something new.

    Est: €8,000 - €10,000

    ERWIN WURM (*1954) | 'Jakob, Jakob fat', 1994 Image Size: 100 x 160 cm English: Chromogenic print, based on film stills, flush-mounted, in good condition. Framed with acrylic glass 103,3 x 164,4 cm. Signed, dated (1994/97) and annotated "Probeexemplar (sample)" in blue ink on the frame back plate. LITERATURE Erwin Wurm, cat. Galerie Krinzinger, Vienna 1996, cover (there titled); Peter Weibel (ed.), Erwin Wurm. Fat Survival. Fat Survival. Behavioral Forms of Sculpture, cat. Neue Galerie Graz, Ostfildern 2002, p. 88 (there dated). From around 1992, Erwin Wurm worked on a group of textile sculptures, which he initially realised in the form of videos; in them, artist friends can be seen putting on their entire wardrobe on top of each other according to Wurm's instructions. Jakob Gasteiger also underwent this transformation into a ponderously fat figure, who additionally put bread in his mouth to puff up his cheeks. In this work, two video stills are juxtaposed to illustrate the stages at the beginning and end of the process. For various presentations in New York and Europe, he transformed the present "test print" into superhumanly large-dimensioned billboards. With his "Fat Sculptures", which he pursued into recent work phases, Wurm reflected on concepts of art production as well as social aspects of consumer society.

Ab etwa 1992 arbeitete Erwin Wurm an einer Werkgruppe von textilen Skulpturen, die er zunächst in Form von Videos umsetzte; darin sind befreundete Künstler zu sehen, die sich nach Wurms Anleitung ihre gesamte Garderobe übereinander anziehen. Diese Verwandlung zur behäbig-dicken Figur erfuhr auch Jakob Gasteiger, der sich zusätzlich Brot in den Mund steckte, um die Wangen aufzublähen. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden zwei Video-Stills gegenüber bzw. nebeneinander gestellt, die die Stadien zu Beginn und am Ende des Prozesses verdeutlichen. Für verschiedene Präsentationen in New York und Europa setzte er den vorliegenden "Probedruck" in übermenschlich groß-dimensionierte Billboards um. Mit seinen "Fat Sculptures", die er bis in jüngere Werkphasen verfolgt, reflektiert Wurm Konzepte der Kunstproduktion wie auch soziale Aspekte der Konsumgesellschaft.
