“The Whole Truth about Corona” / “Don’t Let Yourself Be Fooled”, designed by Udo Breitenbach
in 2020, objet trouvé by the object artist Udo Breitenbach, various materials, height approx. 55 cm, width approx. 45 cm, depth approx. 35 cm. (MHA)
The object artist Udo Breitenbach from Aschaffenburg works with unusual found objects, which he places into a new context. They are eloquent objects from which he extracts or into which he reads all kinds of stories and histories. What results are Dadaesque collages, assemblages, and ready-mades. The Dadaists of the past countered the madness of the First World War with absurdity – ANTI-ART as a desperate creative act! Udo Breitenbach sees himself as a post-Dadaist harking back to the language of Dadaism yet addressing contemporary themes. This object accordingly deals with the pandemic and its impact in a post-Dadaist fashion.
“You don’t even know the taste of authentic DADA, as you use a DADA-filter called “art”. It is the only thing that always supplies us with meaningless hubbub and which can be handled easily and be cleaned easily and thoroughly, which exploits DADA completely and saves 30 to 40 per cent of DADA.” (Udo Breitenbach in 2020)
This is how post-Dadaist Udo Breitenbach interprets the Dadaism of the past in one of his objects.
