Description

Markus Copper – Metallin maku | The Taste of Metal provides fresh insights into the work of one the Nordic region’s preeminent sculptors, focusing on his output from the 1990s to the 2010s. Markus Copper (1968–2019) was a cult figure who fused sound and movement in sculptures commenting on traumatic historic events such as the sinking of the MS Estonia. He is best known for his monumental, spatially imposing works featuring sound, mechanical movement and light. Many of his pieces deliver a commentary on human behaviour, morality and the psyche.
