DIRK MARWIG 1996 (Hardwood+wooden pole construction(300cm x 75cm x 60cm), and 2 plywood constructions,Dirk Marwig, Nikolaus Fischer Gallery,Franfkfurt, Germany 1996)

The object “All in the Mind” shows what our existence is all about: we only THINK that we THINK(we are controlled!) and we can only do what we think! It’s all a big hoax and we are not laughing and if we are laughing, we are on drugs.(This is a different view)

Untitled Object at Frankfurt Opera (5000 Plywood discs, aluminum poles, 500cm x 100cm x 105cm, Dirk Marwig 1997)

This took me 1 1/2 years to make: I would cut a few discs whenever I felt like it… never more than 20cm in a ‘go’. Each disc is signed, dated and has “DM + PS = :heart:″ written on it. 5000 times! The ceiling in the Chagall Room(It’s called that because right next to my object are like 10 Marc Chagall paintings) is 13m high, the object is 5m high, so a normal sized person would reach a little above the ‘name tag’ which is on the wall -(lower left).

Twirly (Plywood construction with oil and tennis string, 57cm x 57cm, Dirk Marwig 2008)

Originally called “Double Spatial Twist” I changed the name of this object in 2016 (8 years later) to “Twirly”. Easier.

PLASTIC FLORIDA (-wall object-Lacquered and coloured ‘Japan-paper’ on plexi-glass, 90cm x 65cm x 6cm, Dirk Marwig, Madrid 1998)

Everything about Florida, Miami, for example(if you have ever been there)-for me anyway- is the height of ‘plastic’ culture.

MURRAY’S(GELL-MANN) WORLD – “Quark Model” (Wooden dowels,glue,rubber bands,oil stick,47cm x 56cmx x26cm, Dirk Marwig 1998, Madrid)

“This object is a variation on the by Murray Gell-Mann devised Quark model. A Quark is an elementary particle and a fundamental constituent of matter. I made this object without any prior knowledge of this model or Murray Gell-Mann – I just let pure intuition guide me, i did not think and this is what happened. Later i discovered the Quark model in a physics book!”
