Maria Anwander 0,45 seconds before the ball smashed through the window I was thinking how my life would be if I was attractive, rich and sexy 2009 in cooperation with Ruben Aubrecht Video 5’35 — La Ruleta de la Suerte is a Spanish quiz show in which candidates have to guess right adages by mention single characters. A slightly dressed woman has to turn around the right guessed characters for fake, actually all the characters are generated by a computer. We manipulated the video so the blackboard finally shows the sentence: Basta de Sexismo en la Television - Stop Sexism on Television

Maria Anwander My Most Favourite Art 2004 - 2011 65 exhibition labels size variable — MY MOST FAVOURITE ART is an installation made of exhibition plates, which I`ve stolen and collected from different galeries and museums since 2004. Only criterion for the theft of a plate is my fascination for the work which belongs to it. The installation allows the viewer access to my innermost, to the works accompanying my artistic career. Different languages and logos give information about their origin so they could also be read as a travel diary. For example they inform the viewers when I was being in London, Berlin or Venice and which exhibitions I`ve seen there. To some of the exhibited title plates the memory let appear pictures in the viewers minds and for the unknown the phantasy builds complete new artworks.

Maria Anwander The Kiss 2007/2010 — “The Kiss” was given to the MoMA as a donation without asking for permission. I entered the museum as a regular visitor and gave an intense French kiss to the wall. Next to the invisible kiss I then fixed a fake label, which simulated the style of a regular MoMA caption.
