New York based Swiss artist, Urs Fischer, was frustrated that so much visual creativity that happens on screens never gains any real dimensionality when printed. So, he decided to take a look at “flatness” by silk-screening objects, like bolts and fruits, on top of colored-in publicity head-shots to highlight the images’ lack of dimension. The comparison between the random objects and the people they are obscuring also adds humor to the pieces. [UrsFischer]
