Hypnosis, Galerie Thaddeus Ropac, Salzburg, 2008 Erwin Wurm, Trap of the Truth, Yorkshire Sculpture Park, West Bretton Wakefield, 2023/2024 Illustrated: Erwin Wurm, DuMont Buchverlag 2009, page 126/127, installation view Provenance: Private Collection, Vienna “Sculpture is about working with volume” Erwin Wurm … The occasionally indeterminate protrusions which emerge from the bodies signify an inner compulsion: Protrusions motivated by psychological or emotional forces. Wurm accordingly refers to them as “Neid“ (Envy)- and “Ärgerbeulen” (Anger Lumps); when they appear as autonomous, potato-shaped bodies, he also refers to them as “Mind bubbles.” Helmut Friedel in Erwin Wurm, DuMont, Cologne 2009
