Swiss artist Ugo Rondinone (b. 1964) works in a diverse range of mediums including painting, sculpture, video, photography and installation. With his blend of cross-references, icons, signs and elusive traces and his mixture of attraction and repulsion, excitement and boredom, clarity and confusion, intensity, emptiness, laughter and melancholy, Ugo Rondinone's work is in a constant exploration of different media, themes and stylistic expressions. His work is playful and can not be fixed within a specific description. Fiction, everyday life and effect are intimately linked in a discourse which bonds art and life, aesthetics and mental experience, in a personal and linguistic productive vision.
