July 8 – September 5, 2021 With “curated by daniel spoerri” the galerie gugging invites to a diversified creative firework, in which Daniel Spoerri – one of the most renowned artists of today – presents not only his own, but also favourite
works of the Gugging Artists and their international colleagues.
"first look @ curated by daniel spoerri | at the gallery gugging #25" by galerie gugging, 2021 Daniel Spoerri is one of the most important contemporary Austrian artists. Originally born in Galaţi, Romania, the cheerful nature became known to a broad public as a dancer, poet, object & installation artist, founding member of the Nouveaux Réalistes and, above all, as the founder of “Eat Art”. The fact that Daniel Spoerri immediately accepted the
invitation to curate his own exhibition at the gallery gugging delighted gallery director Nina Katschnig, who can also see clear parallels to the artistic world of Spoerri and the selected artists. For example, Spoerri chose the Gugging classic August Walla, who, like him, was a universal artist with a particular affinity for culinary arts. Also with “birdman” Hans Langner or Jens Mohr this unifying bond exists through working with everyday objects and found objects.

Jean Dubuffet: BRUTAL BEAUTY Extract from the accompanying book to London’s Dubuffet show
Barbican Art Gallery is holding London’s first Jean Dubuffet retrospective in over 50 years. “Brutal Beauty” celebrates the artist’s singular and provocative approach and the inspiration he gained from his art brut discoveries. The accompanying exhibition book includes an essay by Sarah Lombardi, director of the Collection de l’Art Brut, which tells of the erratic early days of his art brut journey from 1945 until 1962. In issue 107, Raw Vision publishes an extract which opens with Dubuffet, frustrated and conflicted, deciding to dissolve the Compagnie de l’Art Brut.
