This publication features the artists’ sculptures, installations, photographs, and films from the past twenty-five years. Along with the seemingly trivial, fundamental questions about human existence inspire their ironic, clever works. Their path seemed to be laid out for them as early as 1980, when they produced their first collaborative piece, the photo cycle \u003cEM\u003eWurstserie \u003c\/EM\u003e(Sausage Series). Whole and sliced sausages became protagonists in adventurous settings that would make great material for a film. In their installation \u003cI style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\"\u003eFragenprojektion\u003c\/I\u003e (Question Projection) (1981–2002), they confront the viewer with poetic everyday questions, such as “Will happiness find me?”\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003eExhibition schedule: Sammlung Goetz, Munich, November 8, 2010–February 26, 2011\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45526233186568,"sku":"9783775727358","price":35.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775727358_3a34599d-1b84-41bb-825a-b52cc3ba7fe8.jpg?v=1744125976","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/16520-peter-fischli-david-weiss","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
