Robert Langenegger likes his works scatological, and that may be reason for his popularity. After all, he is represented by the international outfit Arndt. So in this we-fie taken from a timed tripod camera with a Buckingham Palace guard in London, the guard is somehow unaware that his fly is unzipped, and exposed to a ‘fly-fie.’ Any wonder that his first solo held in Graz, Austria, in 2010, is called ‘Can You See My Balls?
Born in St Gallen, Switzerland, Langenegger lives and works in Manila. He was educated at the University of the Philippines Diliman 2004-2005 and the Kalayaan College in 2003-2004 and 2005-2006. He was a finalist of the Sovereign Art Prize in 2008. In 2010, he had a solo at the Freies Museum in Berlin.
