A 70th-Birthday Retrospective

Erwin Wurm is one of the most important contemporary artists. The exhibition at ALBERTINA MODERN on the occasion of his 70th birthday honors the long-standing connection between ALBERTINA and this exceptional artist. It is the first major retrospective of his versatile oeuvre, encompassing sculptures, drawings, videos, and photographs, all shedding light on the absurdity of our world.

Wurm gives form to the moment and the absurd feelings experienced within it. His work revolves around the realization that the search for meaning in life is ultimately futile.
