Mark Dion and John Miller

The exhibition features two signature installations by artists Mark Dion and John Miller from the 1990s, who both address social issues through their works. Dion’s piece is part of the “Wheelbarrows in Progress” series: each wheelbarrow is dedicated to a particular environmental question. The one exhibited at Nagel Draxler reflects on the paradox of creating geological rainforests inside cities while at the same time actual rainforests are deforested. Miller displays one of his brown sculptures, in which he investigates the fetishisation of aesthetic objects, using brown colour as trademark.
