This publication surveys works by Austrian artist Markus Hiesleitner (born 1981) whose conceptual sculptures, installations and videos examine political, social, economic and ecological issues in contemporary life. Comprised of mass-produced objects like balloons and plastic shipping crates or compost and organic material, Hiesleitner’s works are often characterized as “ecopolitical.”
