With his artistic works, the sculptor Winfried Baumann (* 1956)
evokes questions of social responsibility and the perception of
contemporary social forms. His subjects are highly topical both as
regards content with respect to social and urban-planning visions,
and also formally as they cross the borders between fine art and
applied design. For over thirty years the sculptor Winfried Baumann
has focused his attention in the ecological problems which are
increasingly advancing to become a question of survival for
civilised society. Refuse, slag from the burning of refuse, waste
oil and other waste products from our consumer society are
materials which he has been using since the mid-1980s for his
three-dimensional works and large-scale installations. In his very
extensive group of works "Cathedrals" Winfried Baumann examines,
for example, waste-disposal plants for large urban spaces, with the
protection and marking of nuclear contaminated sites,
waste-disposal facilities for large urban spaces and intermediate
urban spaces and with the subject of urban mining.
