Heinrich Lüber
Landis & Gyr Stiftung Residency
2003
Heinrich Lüber is a Swiss performance artist. His work deals with public space and the different perspectives available to people within these spaces. In his performances Heinrich floats in mid-air, bending at odd angles and balancing on top of identically dressed colleagues. He creates whimsical and surreal visions that stand out from the world around him.
