Untitled 2004/2019 Plywood, gold paint, tube steel, 81 × 52 × 46 cm (32 x 20½ x 18 in.). Unique.
Heimo Zobernig is interested in the 3D forming technique of plywood, which was invented by Charles Eames and later used in prototype form for sculptures by Jean Arp or Henry Moore. The color gold is going against the dogma of the material adequacy of the modern age and is at the same time a statement on the monochrome.
