Peter Fischli (b. 1952) & David Weiss (1946-2012) Fischli and Weiss began their collaboration in 1979. Peter Fischli attended the Academia delle Belle Arti in Urbino and Bologna from 1975-1977. David Weiss studied at the School of Applied Arts in Zurich and Basel, where he focused on sculpture. In their photographs, films, sculptures and multimedia installations they put everyday subjects and objects in a new and surprising artistic context and question them in a humorous way, thereby they are compared with artists such as Marcel Duchaump, Jean Tinguely or Dieter Roth. Thus they arranged in their first collective photographic work 'Wurstserie' (sausage series) sausages and sausage slices with waste to various scenes from everyday life. In 1987 both had great success at the documenta 8 with their film 'Der Lauf der Dinge' (The Way Things Go). In 2003 Fischli & Weiss were awarded with the Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale for their installation 'Questions'. Their works are represented in the collections of major museums such as the Tate in London or the Guggenheim Museum in New York.
