Take and Make form the Museum
Project 1: Museum Of Fantastic Forgeries
For my first project I took inspiration from the art work of Thomas Grunfeld; name: Misfit IV. It is a series of sculptures made from taxidermic animals. I chose it because of the techniek, materials and specially de stories that he wants to tell us.
Misfit IV (Misbaksel IV), 1989 - 1990
Thomas Grünfeld
Biography
Thomas Grünfeld is best known for his “Misfits”—sculptures made from taxidermied animals. Grünefeld’s animals, however, subvert the typically scientific nature of taxidermy and instead represent fictional creatures: He places a pig’s head on a bird’s body in Misfit (pig/bird) (2001), or a dog’s head on the body of a calf in Misfit (doberman) (1998). The works reference German folklore, specifically children’s wolperfinger—moralizing fables about human-like animals—and as such evoke proverbial battles between real and imaginary, good and evil.
