Time— magazine called this artist one of the leaders of the new millennium while the New York Times recommended his works as a reliable tranquilizer. For more than a decade Vik Muniz (b. 1961, San Paolo, Brazil) has been intriguing the world with his creations marked by an amazing mixture of techniques, approaches, and interpretations of the surrounding reality. The history of world art for him is not just some dead past but the computer RAM (Random Access Memory) without which you can—t exist for a single day nowadays. This is the basis for his unceasing dialogue with his contemporaries. The younger generation today turns increasingly less frequently to the —irrelevant— experience of the past. Trapped as they are in the new technologies and the modern mass media they have no time for the museums of classical art
