註釋In its fourth collaboration with Tate in London, Deutsche Bank has brought another extraordinary exhibition to Berlin. This time the focus is on the history of British sculpture, which after World War II took completely new, often radical paths and still has an influence on contemporary art today. They paved the way for innovative art that uses everything for sculpture: everyday items like silver teapots, plastic toys, and refrigerators, as well as ephemeral materials including battens, silver-foil, feathers, and ashes. They declared the human body to be sculpture, as well as conversations and walks, and provoked with violence, death, and human misery. Comprising around seventy masterpieces from Tate's collection, Objects of Wonder shows how British artists have revolutionized contemporary sculpture since the middle of the twentieth century. The spectrum ranges from icons of postwar modernism like Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth, to stars of the Young British Artists generation, including Damien Hirst and Tracey Emin, who is represented with a provocative neon sculpture.
