What is a BODYCHECK?!\n\nWhat can sculpture achieve today? What is the particular characteristic of sculpture, compared to other art forms - such as painting, drawing, photography, video, interdisciplinary multimedia art? \nSculpture can achieve a lot. The 10th Triennial in Fellbach focuses on the specific responses of artists today. Contemporary sculpture is lively and exciting where it is spatially concrete and physically present, where it relies on its own graphic aspect, as opposed to the everyday discursive text: it is less so where exhibitions present it in terms of global problem competence, all-roundedness and views emanating from newspaper cultural sections. \nOur everyday world is an environment packed with helpful tools. We allow ourselves to be guided by control instruments and we orient ourselves according to symbolic visual sign systems. We press switches and buttons as a matter of course, follow pictograms, use accelerators or cash dispensers. Most of the things we handle daily are machines or disposable goods, in any case, mass products. Information and news, i.e. concrete views of what is influencing our situation, reach us digitally processed and by electronic means. The actual Other in our subjective mastery of the everyday, the thing itself, is disappearing from our field of vision and from perception. \nSculpture gets in the way, like a stumbling block. The artwork is the opposite of a mass product. It stands for the aspiration to a concrete, non-interchangeable experience. Being itself thing-like, a sculpture maintains open access to the individual concrete thing. The artwork as sculpture is physically present and actually tangible. Unlike photography, painting or digitally-animated screen interfaces (or written texts), sculpture does not address the isolated eye but the whole perceiving body. \nThere is to see works of more than 50 artists: Pawel Althamer
