You can make it at home without too many complications. It doesn’t bleed. It doesn’t stink. And you can live with it without being afraid.” —Franz West Franz West was born on this day, February 16, in Vienna. Throughout his career, West manipulated everyday materials and imagery in order to examine art’s relation to life and collective experience. From collages and interactive sculptures to furniture and large abstract forms, his works focus on the tensions between public and private, considering the controlled behaviors and impulsive actions of the body. Despite their lighthearted ambiguity, West’s sculptures often flirt with philosophical archetypes, alluding to common myths, linguistic theories, and conceptual paradoxes.
