Hans Kupelwieser
Born in Vienna in 1948, Kupelwieser completed his training
at
the
Institute for Applied Arts in Vienna (1976-82 at
Tasquil,
Brock und
Weibel) between extensive travel and
whilst also
working as a
graphic artist.
In the 80’s he belonged to the most individual and
admired
experimental sculptors and represented
Austria at the 1987
Europalia in Brussels.
His photographic work has equal standing with
and in relation to
his sculpting, which transgresses
between material, object,
image and space.
In particular, his large-format photograms of
furniture can be seen photographically as well as
sculptural.
The theme of positive and negative, prototype,
image and
copy
trails through the complete
works of Kupelwieser.
The [Virtual Design studio] offers a range
of
Kupelwiesers designs.
To simulate a
possible
application
you can manipulate
colours and
extracts of the design .
