Peter Fischli & David Weiss
Peter Fischli (born 8 June 1952) and David Weiss (21 June 1946 – 27 April 2012), often shortened to Fischli/Weiss, were an artist duo that had been collaborating since 1979. They were among the most renowned contemporary artists of Switzerland. Their best-known work is the film ''Der Lauf der Dinge (The Way Things Go, 1987)'', described by ''The Guardian'' as being "post apocalyptic", as it concerned chain reactions and the ways in which objects flew, crashed and exploded across the studio in which it was shot. Fischli lives and works in Zurich; Weiss died on 27 April 2012.
==Education and early career==
Peter Fischli (born 8 June 1952) was born in Zurich.
David Weiss (21 June 1946 – 27 April 2012) grew up as the son of a parish priest and a teacher. After discovering a passion for jazz at the age of 16, he enrolled in a foundation course at the Kunstgewerbeschule, Zurich, where in his first year of study he befriended fellow artist Urs Lüthi. Having rejected careers as a decorator, a graphic designer and a photographer, Weiss soon came to view a career as an artist as a realistic prospect.〔Hans-Ulrich Obrist (30 April 2012), (David Weiss obituary ) ''The Guardian''.〕 He studied at the Kunstgewerbeschule, Zurich (1963–4), and the Kunstgewerbeschule, Basel (1964–5); he subsequently worked as sculptor with Alfred Gruder (Basel) and Jaqueline Stieger (England). In 1967, he worked at the Expo 67 in Montreal, before travelling to New York, where he got to know the important minimalist art of the time. Between 1970 and 1979 he published books in collaboration with Lüthi. For most of 1975-78, he spent a great deal of time drawing in black ink, and had exhibitions at galleries in Zürich, Amsterdam, Cologne, and Rotterdam.〔(Peter Fischli/David Weiss ) Galerie Eva Presenhuber, Zürich.〕
Fischli and Weiss met in 1978〔Hans-Ulrich Obrist (30 April 2012), (David Weiss obituary ) ''The Guardian''.〕 and subsequently formed a short-lived rock band, Migros.〔Roberta Smith (6 May 2012), (David Weiss, Artist on Team Celebrating the Banal, Dies at 65 ) ''New York Times''.〕 Their first collaborative venture was a series of ten colour photographs, ''Wurstserie'' (‘sausage series’, 1979), depicting small scenes constructed with various types of meat and sausage and everyday objects, with titles such as "At the North Pole" and "The Caveman".〔(Fischli & Weiss ) MoMA Collection, New York.〕
