Make your own Chewed Gum by Franz West (born Vienna 1947) one of the world’s leading artists. His
work, stretching back to the mid sixties, has always had an interactive dimension and has been shown
in major events, such as Documenta IX and Documenta X, Kassel, Scuplture Projects in Munster (1997)
and Venice Biennale 1988, 1993, 1997, 2003, 2011. In 1997 The Museum of Modern Art New York
presented West with a solo show and his work has also been exhibited at the Museum Ludwig, Los
Angeles County Museum, Museo Nacional de Reina Sofia, Kunsthalle Wien, MADRE Naples etc
This ‘Certificate’, made and signed by Franz West, allows you to replicate his work ‘Chewed Gum’
yourself, which would then constitute as original, but it is also a wonderful image in its own
right. The work was originally made for our Super Farmers Market where we invited artists to make
work using anything that they can source at their local supermarket including food, packaging etc.
