Carlos Bunga
Carlos Bunga is an artist’s book published in connection with the artist’s exhibition at the Vienna Secession.
Rather than functioning as a conventional exhibition catalogue, the publication extends Bunga’s engagement with space, architecture, and temporary structures into book form.
Bunga’s works often emerge from simple materials such as cardboard, adhesive tape, and paint. They respond directly to existing architectural situations, taking up elements of a given space and transforming them through fragile, provisional constructions. His interventions do not simply occupy architecture; they question how space is perceived, entered, and physically experienced.
At the centre of Bunga’s practice is a tension between construction and instability. His installations can appear monumental, yet they remain materially vulnerable and temporary. The book reflects this dynamic between architecture and body, order and collapse, rational structure and intuitive gesture. With its hardcover linen binding, issued in several colour variants, the publication itself assumes an object-like quality and resonates with Bunga’s interest in material, surface, and spatial perception.
