Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

Artist

Michail Pirgelis

B.1976, German

The work of Michail Pirgelis (*1976) updates the traditions of post-minimalism, the readymade and conceptual art while simul- taneously resisting them. His process usually begins with found materials from aircraft cemeteries in California and Arizona, where disused passenger planes wait to be dismantled and recycled. The Cologne-based artist explores the limits of our understanding of objects, while radically expanding our experience of the sculptural.
