Born in 1954 in Bruck an der Mur (Austria), he lives and works in Vienna (Austria).

 

Erwin Wurm's approach to sculpture is based on simple, everyday gestures. Although his work appears to be minimalist, it has more to do with performance. Action works that often last only as long as they appear. Erwin Wurm draws up a kind of typology of sculpture.
