Erwin Wurm: Life Beat soft melt Solo exhibition at Ludwig Museum in Koblenz
7 September—23 November 2025
Ludwig Museum, Koblenz, Germany
Erwin Wurm distinguishes himself as an artist with his particularly fine sense of humor and irony. His drafts and their realizations now appear innumerable when it comes to apparently “banal”, everyday” motifs in his art. Starting with sculptures made of dust and found materials, he very quickly developed the “One-Minute Sculptures”, which caused a sensation and illustrated his criticism of society and the art world in an ironic twist. Then there are the “sausages”, which he humorously and self-critically likes to describe as self-portraits. His shifts in scale and proportions, his “narrow house”, the oversized “Gherkins” or his “flat cars” have also become famous.
