KLAUS WEBER

Secession

Klaus Weber’s work presents the natural world being made to behave in unusual ways: a cloudburst follows a moving car on a sunny day; an ordinary vacuum cleaner summons a small tornado; mushrooms push up through tarmac. This slim but comprehensive catalog documents for the first time Austrian installation artist’s body of work and reveals an intervention in the spaces that dominate our “advanced” cities. Includes color and black-and-white photographs; texts by András Pálffy, Alex Farquharson, Clemens Krümmel, and the artist; and a pull-out insert to illustrate the spectacular effect of a heliostatic (sun-gathering) mirror that Weber installed at the 2008 Vienna Secession exhibit.
