Wurms.

He’s so much more than the coolest name ever:  Austrian Erwin Wurm, who memorably created a few obese objects earlier in the decade, is pushing his pop conceptualism further with One Minute Sculptures, recently included as part of SFMOMA‘s Art of Participation.  They’re “sculptures” in a quasi-Duchampian sense, combined with a (consensual) forcing of their viewers into site-specific choreographies of stillness.  Brilliant.
