Art or disgust? The fascinating dentition exhibition in the Kaiser Wilhelm Museum

In the Kaiser Wilhelm Museum in Krefeld, an extraordinary work of art ensures excitement and mixed feelings! Daniel Spoerri, the famous artist, has created a provocative piece with "Achat de Vieux Dentiers (Ici on Peut Les Essayer)" that captivates the visitors. Around a hundred yellowed bits are mounted on an old garden fence, which are reminiscent of withered leaves. A French signal horn crowns this bizarre arrangement and strengthens the fascination.

a work of art that polarizes

The reactions of the visitors are diverse: while some are amazed and laughing, others show disgust and wonder what this work of art says about the value of art. With this provocative piece, Spoerri wanted to cause exactly these emotions - a mixture of fascination and discomfort. It is a game with the perception that makes the boundaries between art and everyday objects blur.

The installation is not only an eye -catcher, but also a conversation event. It invites the viewers to think about the importance of art and the role of disgust in contemporary art. Spoerri, known for his unconventional approaches, has again managed to question the limits of art and to encourage visitors to think.
