MUSEO CANTONALE D’ARTE LUGANO
3. April – 14. Juni 2009
Twins
from Zurich, Markus and Reto Huber (b. 1975) are an ‘art duo’. Since
2005 they have come to the attention of the Swiss art scene thanks to a
multiform work which as the result of a variety of languages - the
collage, drawing and installations - faces very up-to-date themes
treating the relationship between nature and civilization, science and
symbolic language. Irrespective of whether their works are
drawings
that take up images from science books, collages of ethnographic
photographs or else elaborations of natural elements, they manage to
engross us in a series of questions regarding the destiny of mankind
and its relationship with the environment. Poised between
lightheartedness and irony, in this investigation one nevertheless
always feels the disquieting tension of a looming threat.
