Nivea, posters, 840 x 594 mm, 1999

Nivea (1999) was made for the exhibition Nicht aus einer Position curated by Martin Prinzhorn at the Academy of Fine Arts, Vienna. The posters were placarded around Vienna on the billboards, wich normally advertise cultural events. Seemingly Nivea body lotion is being advertised, but the posture and the body do not really fulflill advertising requirements. Nivea (2000) is one of a series of overdrawings of the 1999 poster. I made the posters the site of my own graffiti and the subject of a critique.
