About the work"I’m not interested in the question ‘Is it art or not?’ Above all, art is a possibility of reality." Düsseldorf-based Stefan Wissel represents an open concept of sculpture in which the idea is decisive. By removing materials and objects from their context of use and reassembling them, he questions the elementary conditions of art. The Paul Smith brand cufflink in the centre with the slogan "You are here" only catches the eye at second glance. It addresses the viewers: Where am I, where do I stand?
