EDGAR HONETSCHLÄGER

27 jun 2009
6 sep 2009

In his films, installations and drawings, Edgar Honetschläger expounds the theme of the contemporary Metropolis in its most diverse aspects and variants. Human squabbles, sexuality and love stories, the labyrinths of streets and forests of buildings, the kaleidoscope of billboards and infinite streamers of colourful cars... all of this is a well-found excuse for the artist to create a fascinating universe in which the spectator sets out to discover urban myths, as well as himself.
