First Ever Exhibit of "Chaos" Sculptures
Marciano Art Foundation
Urs Fischer at the Marciano Arts Foundation marks the first time the Swiss artist’s provocative digital sculptures are on exhibit. More than 500 works from his CHAOS #1–#501 series have been compiled into a set of short-form videos, shown on giant sized screens, for proper sensory effect. As Fischer maintains, “They exist in any space, be it virtual, real, or a fusion of the two.”

ABOUT
Across a wildly protean oeuvre, Fischer mines the potential of materials—from clay, steel, and paint to dirt, bread, and vegetables—to generate an uncanny, unsettling “collision of things.” Through distortions of scale and the reimagining of common objects and images using technological intervention, his sculptures, paintings, photographs, and installations explore themes of perception and representation with an off-kilter wit. Often evoking historical genres and motifs, Fischer embraces transformation and decay, producing art that inhabits a space between the real and the imagined.
