Peter Fischli (b. 1952) & David Weiss (1946-2012)

Known for grappling with the ordinary and everyday, Fischli and Weiss deliberately and humorously blur the lines between high art and mass culture, and Untitled (Car) is a droll take on technology and progress. Stripped to its most essential form absent any stylised detailing, the automobile has been reduced to an anonymous model. By casting the car in matte black rubber, the artists have rendered it impotent; as the ultimate symbol of freedom, Untitled (Car) remains eternally fixed in place.
