About the Authors

Franz West, born in Vienna in 1947, began his artistic career as a self-taught artist and only later studied under Bruno Gironcoli. Throughout his life, he broke the traditional rules of sculpture. As early as the mid-1970s, he completely bridged the gap between object and viewer. In 2011, he received the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement at the Venice Biennale for his sculptural oeuvre.
