Horst Wackerbarth collects people. He collects fates. For over a quarter of a century he has been travelling around the world with his red couch, which he places in a variety of peoples’ living environments and portrays them on it; young and old, poor and rich, famous and unknown, Nobel laureates and illiterates in the ice deserts of Alaska and the rainforests of South America, in the big cities of Europe and the villages of Siberia. The aim is to create a work of portrays a gallery of humanity. The red couch is a common element, recurrent theme, stage, throne and communication platform all in one. The red couch puts all people on a par!
