Lois Weinberger - Kuh

Print

Weinberger found inspiration for Kuh (the German word for cow) from the Red Breed, a cattle breed from West Flanders. The realistic cow in painted aluminium stands at the edge of a small plot with a view of a meadow with real black and white-flecked cows. As such, the sculpted cow is the odd one out. In any case, it is not standing in the meadow, but in the built-up area, a nod to the subtly critical aspect that Bruegel often infused into his paintings.
