Charlie talks to Bernard Gwiggner about Sculptures, Monuments and their performative context.
Bernhard Gwiggner speaks about the roles of monuments today and gves his perspective on counter monuments as temporary interventions. He explains contexts of three of his works which deal with Nazi sculptures in public space (Contra Position), prisons (Cell 2014) and a memorial on the resistance movement against Nazis in Neumarkt/Salzburg (Austria), which is currently in production. All his works deal with playful participatory interactions as a main component of the sculptural work.
Bernhard Gwiggner is a sculptor (Salzburg Mozarteum; Academy of Fine Arts, Vienna) and a professor at the Department of Fine Arts in Innsbruck and Salzburg. He created numerous artworks, often as temporary sculptural projects in public space blending political contexts and performative aspects.
