Hans Ulrich Obrist and John Chamberlain

John Chamberlain is famous for his sculptures of crushed cars, which made him a pioneer of Pop Art in the 1960s. Casually, this conversation with Hans Ulrich Obrist traces the life and art of a charismatic loner, leading him from Abstract Expressionism to Nouveau Realism and on to Pop Art. Chamberlain explains his ways of dealing with the material, chats about child education, defines his view on the artist as a gardener, and emphatically describes the sensuality of car scrap. This work is number 2 in the Hans-Ulrich Obrist Conversation series. Others in the series include Obrist in conversation with Robert Crumb, Rem Koolhaas, Rosemarie Trockel, Wolfgang Tillmans, Yona Friedman, Zaha Hadid and Gilbert and George.
