Rudolf Hürth: Apostrophe

Apostrophe times 6! Rudolf Hürth's perspective is always changing: his 6 apostrophes can be rearranged, turned and twisted. It's worth taking a look at the image gallery!

This artwork is part of our campaign "Perspective matters". With start'19 in mind, we asked artists what they saw in the apostrophe from our event logo – or if it even is an apostrophe in their eyes. The responses to this call for entries revealed a multitude of perspectives that we want to share with our readers. More information about the campaign can be found HERE. 

Apostrophe times 6: Rudolf Hürth's inspiration was enough for six apostrophes, all interpreted in very different ways. His polyurethane sculptures are multi-faceted. Every change of point of view, every slight twist in the carefully staged interplay of his sculptures opens up new perspectives. Arranged differently, in the context of other sculptures, hanging from the ceiling ... each of these presentations results in a completely different picture and arouses completely different associations. What do you see?

Are you inspired by this perspective? Don’t hesitate to show your own, then! To get you started we have prepared a craft template – download it HERE. As part of our campaign, we want to encourage everyone to look at their own perspective and maybe re-think it. While making such a small sculpture, you have the best opportunity to turn both things around: the paper sculpture and your own perspective ... we're curious to see what comes out of it!
