YVONNE DRÖGE WENDEL
Item of the Item Store (2008)

This object with a pair of glossy tags attached is one of the items that were put on display in her Item Store 2008. They are all made of the same grey-green fabric, although they vary in size and shape, they look similar in their clumsiness. The charts as tags are ad randomly pinned on each object and are meant to guide the observer’s perception. As such these labels reveal a relational identity of the objects through a wide range of manuals, stories, images, histories or color charts printed on these.
Although the labels have been deliberately attached to the specific objects in principle they are exchangeable and the items are open to any kind of interpretation.

“All items are ready to be uploaded with the thoughts of the observer. Play with your perception and see your emotions jump from a label to an object and from an object to a label. Make a choice and imagine a new thing!”

The fascination for things is a consistent factor in her work and life. Yvonne Dröge Wendel is concerned with the relationship between people, objects and context. With a philosophical approach she aims to capture what it is that objects actually do. i.e. do to the owners and to people in general: “Few people realize that in fact objects play an important role in the way they act, the choices they make and how their body is influenced by these.”

In January 1992 for her final exam at the Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam Yvonne Dröge married a cupboard (Wendel Ltd.) that she owned since she was a child and that carried precious recollections for her.

Fischli and Weiss adapted objects and situations from everyday life and placed them in an artistic context—often using humour and irony. Wurstserie (1979) was Fischli and Weiss’s first collaborative project, setting the tone for their future work. In the series, ordinary sausages and slices of sausages became the protagonists of scenarios, alluding to situations such as cars in a traffic accident in an urban setting, layers of carpets and other situations. By the end of the 1980s, the duo had expanded their repertoire to embrace an iconography of the incidental, creating deadpan photographs of kitsch tourist attractions and airports around the world.

FISCHLI & WEISS, Untitled (Mushroom), 2006

PETER FISCHLI and DAVID WEISS, Untitled (Mushroom), 2006
50 x 60 cm / 20 24 inches
photograph
edition 120
recto: signed, dated, numbered

Untitled (Mushroom) is taken from a series of photographs of ferns, fungi, flowers, insects, grasses and undergrowth. Each photograph is a double exposure, made by either Peter Fischli or David Weiss taking pictures and then handing the camera over to the other, or maybe not, rewinding the film, and shooting again on the same roll of film. The result is a kaleidoscopic world of double-vision. A kind of what they called “concentrated daydreaming”—real-time glimpses into daily life in Zurich: a mountain sunrise, a restaurant chef in his kitchen, sanitation workers, a bicycle race, and so here mushrooms in nature.
