For HOT MESS, Philip Topolovac will be presenting one of his Containment Units, a mini concrete bunker containing WW2 debris - a headless figure - and a photograph of the head of a sculpture. The two works are complimentary - lost and found - and yet entirely unrelated.
Philip Topolovac (b.1979) works and lives in Berlin, where he studied fine arts and sculpture at UdK and graduated in 2008. In his sculptures, photographs and installations he scrutinises the conditions of estrangement in contemporary society as a result of technological progress and historical developments.
