Thierry Furger: Going Over

Artstübli presents the exhibition of Thierry Fuger: ‘Going Over’.
Born in 1975, in Switzerland, Thierry Furger discovered the world of graffiti during the 80s. For over twenty years, Furger has followed and documented the subculture of writers and their works.
With his solo show ‘Going Over’ he investigates the wider characteristics of the graffiti universe. These include, in particular, its transience and the aesthetics of the cleaning and removal of illegal tags and graffiti pieces, but also strategies, techniques and situations of illegal writings. He tries to capture the development, transience and materiality.

Special opening hours during Art Basel: June 13–19, daily 1pm–8pm
