Erwin Wurm: „In the video 59 positions for the first time, I felt I was allowing absurd aspects to enter my work. Before, I had always held this very high notion of what I was pursuing; I was after the supreme level of art. High art, I thought, is very spiritual, very intellectual, and always so smart. I had always wanted to achieve these ideals, but it never happened. In 50 positions, there are many segments, which I had the impulse to throw out when I saw them. But I left them; it’s good for me to include what is wrong with what seems right, it always leads to something new and interesting.“
