Here You Have the Feeling That Reality Is a Different One

"Man hat hier das Gefühl, dass die Realität eine andere ist"

Austrian artist Erwin Wurm discusses his exhibition at the Museo Fortuny in Venice, where he confronts the overwhelming collection of the 19th-century polymath Mariano Fortuny. In an interview, Wurm describes the venue as a historic atelier house filled with tapestries and artifacts, and reflects on how his contemporary sculptures and performances will engage with the dense, time-capsule atmosphere of the space.
