Robert Gober

06 Oct, 2012 - 10 Feb, 2013
For this exhibition, the Museum f眉r Gegenwartskunst reconstructs a work the American artist Robert Gober created specifically for its ground floor hall: the installation Split Wall with Drains (1994鈥95). The piece stands at the center of a show dedicated for the most part to works by Gober held by the collections of the 脰ffentliche Kunstsammlung and the Emanuel Hoffmann Foundation. After the major survey exhibition held at the Schaulager, Basel, in 2007, this eminent oeuvre, in which replicas of domestic objects such as washbasins, fireplaces, and drains, effigies of body parts, and reproductions of specific spaces with institutional or religious connotations play a central part, will be presented to the public in a new exhibition produced once again in close collaboration with the artist.
