Snowman, a sculpture by Swiss artists Fischli/Weiss, has taken its place in the Fondation Beyeler’s Berower Park for one year. The sculpture shows the friendly and familiar figure of a snowman, consisting of three stacked snowballs, the top and smallest one displaying two holes for eyes and a dash for a mouth. It stands in a refrigerator with transparent front, allowing it to exist throughout the year.
