Otto-Bloch

An articulated wooden figure, hand painted by the artist himself. Each piece is identical while also unique. The figure, like a totem pole, brings together in one headless body, a number of the symbols the Nazis used to brand the prisoners in concentration camps together with other symbols which are part of the iconographic affinities of the artist, and then he combines and interprets the analogies and aesthetic discrepancies of the codes into compulsive reading, pointing out the persistence of the human cultural habit of summing up and representing ideas and concepts through synthesized images, i.e. symbols.

Action figure includes text written by the artist and a certificate of authenticity.
