Photographs by Mara Truog

Wherever the performance artist Heinrich Lüber appears, all physical laws seem to turn up side down.
Floating high over the city streets, adopting strange body parts, or standing for hours on the head of his double in the open sea - he always can be assured of the amazed gaze by passers by as well as by the art community.
The performances of Lüber irritate, amuse and fascinate. They are borderline walks between spectacle and poetry.
In the film "Lüber in der Luft", Anna-Lydia Florin has accompanied Heinrich Lüber into his odd world and presents the documentary film currently at kult.kino Basel.
In occasion of the first release, STAMPA presents an object installation and performance photographs of the artist.
