CLEMENS FÜRTLER – Babel

The Tower of Babel, made out of a toy railway

CLEMENS FÜRTLER – Babel

When: FRI, February 9–March 30, on appointment
Where: Sammlung Friedrichshof
Entry: TBA

The ‘Tower of Babel’, which is Fürtler’s latest piece. Clemens Fürtler creates image generating, kinetic objects, built out of model railway and freeway parts – the so-called, Bildmaschinen. Using toys, railway paraphernalia, and models of suburban houses to construct his tower, he hopes to highlight the contrast in the imagined perfect world scenario, while creating his own version of the Tower of Babel. You’ve got to make an appointment to see this piece. Check the details, here.
