The artists have created a masterpiece, using an entirely unspectacular material to form sculptural snapshots that sparkle with cheerful wit : sketched models of everyday situations and objects ; clay reproductions that reveal the absurdity and artificial normality of the ordinary. Alongside them are semi-freely imagined scenes and events from history, culture, entertainment, sport and assorted memories from their own biographies, immortalised in emblematic scenarios. The titles, with their characteristic subtle mockery, fragmentary encyclopaedic knowledge and serious irony, are an integral part of the work. 600 10 $a Fischli, Peter, $d 1952- $v Exhibitions. 600 10 $a Weiss, David, $d 1946-2012 $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Modeling $z Zurich $z Zurich $v Exhibitions. 700 1 $a Weiss, David, $d 1946-2012, $e artist. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n83208833 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211024329.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BC3E0ED2E61D11E7AB1B6A7197128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
