Markuz Wernli

 

CV and Bio ((English))

Markuz Wernli is an interdisciplinary artist working with food, collaboration and relationships. By merging process and artwork into artistic experiments, the public is directly influencing and co-determining the outcome thereof.  Employing universal languages found in personal habits, food culture, and everyday routine Markuz realizes projects that bring environmental issues into a tangible experience like "Foodchain, Reclaiming Clam Shells" (ChengLong, Taiwan, 2012), "Growing Kelp Sculptures" (Busan, 2011), the “Dancing Cooks No-Menu-Restaurant” (Anyang, 2010), “Growing Radishes With 30 Families (Kyoto, Japan, 2009) and “Thank You Notes to the Garbage Men” (Hakodate, Japan, 2007).

 

Markuz Wernli experiments with situational art where our presence in daily life become the catalyst for novel relationships and co-creation. http://www.momentarium.org
 

Stellungnahme (( German ))

 

Markuz Wernli versteht sich als interdisziplinärer Künstler, der mit Aspekten aus Esskultur, Zusammenarbeit und Beziehungen arbeitet. Durch konsequentes Zusammenführen von Prozess und Produkt in ein kuenstlerisches Experiment, kann das Publikum das Resultat voll beeinflussen und mitbestimmen. Mit dem bewussten Einsatz von universell verständlichen Sprachen inspiriert aus persönlicher Routine und Gewohnheit,  realisiert Markuz kleine Kunstereignisse im Alltagsleben, welche soziale Themen in eine greifbare Erfahrung bringen, wie zum Beispiel  "Nahrungskette, Rettung der Muschelschalen" (ChengLong, Taiwan, 2012), "Das Heranwachsen von Seetang" (OpenSpace Bae, 2011), das “Dancing Cooks Restaurant-ohne-Speisekarte” (Anyang, 2010), “Radieschen Grossziehen mit 30 Familien (Kyoto, Japan, 2009) and “Dankeschön-Briefe and den Müllmann” (Hakodate, Japan, 2007).

 

Markuz Wernli experimentiert mit situations-bezogener Kunst wo die persönliche Präsenz im Alltagsleben der Auslöser wird für unerwartete Beziehungen und kollektive Kreativität.
