The First Passstück

The First Passstück

A white spiraled sculpture

Franz West created a line of sculptures that were meant to be handled by the audience. He called these sculptures "Passtsückes." The Passstückes were mostly made of plaster and metal and had no real purpose or use. This is his first in the series which he later translated to "Adaptives."
