Artista
Wolfgang Laib
Data
6 marzo – 8 luglio
Location
Musée de l'OrangerieJardin des Tuileries, 75001 Paris, France
This presentation will bring together works specially created by the artist for the museum’s very special architecture, in dialogue with that ode to nature and beauty formed by Monet’s Nymphéas. In the works of Wolfgang Laib (born in Germany in 1950), nature invades art. As a result, his materials, which include pollen, milk, rice and beeswax, dictate the final forms of the simple, geometrically-shaped sculptures created by the artist (squares, cones and alignments). Each of his works is presided over by a series of simple, economical actions involving a relationship with nature.
From 3 April to 14 July 2025, Fondazione Prada, Milan will host “Typologien”, an extensive survey of twentieth-century German photography, in the central Podium space. Curated by Susanne Pfeffer, art historian and director of the Museum MMK für Moderne Kunst in Frankfurt, the exhibition brings together over 600 photographic works by 25 key artists in the history of German photography. The project explores the concept of typology, a principle developed in seventeenth-century botany and later applied to photography, capable of connecting different generations of artists such as Bernd and Hilla Becher, Andreas Gursky, Thomas Ruff, August Sander, Wolfgang Tillmans, and many others.
