The Swiss artist Thomas Hirschhorn sees his works as a call for change and upheaval. With his complex, often seemingly brutal works, he invites viewers to inform themselves, to take a stand or even to resist.
For Florian Peters Messer, the encounter with the socially critical and political works of the Paris-based artist was an important stimulus at the beginning of his collecting activities. Over the years, he has been able to compile a representative selection of Hirschhorn's works, to which a separate room is dedicated in the exhibition. In the lecture performance, curator Felicity Korn talks to the artist about his work.
