Austrian artist Erwin Wurm is known for his humorous approach towards his art production. In collaboration with the Public Art Fund, he transformed a yellow VW Microbus into an overstuffed, larger-than-life Hot Dog Bus, serving 50,000 free hot dogs to people at the Brooklyn Bridge Park in New York. Its lovingly cute—and fat—appearance presents a critique on modern gluttony, and the acts of losing and gaining weight that come with societal pressures founded in Capitalist countries. For Wurm, this act also resembles art.
