There is a small amount of information on this artist on the MCA website, just search Erwin Wurm.
You can also find more examples of this work at the http://www.balticmill.com/ website, there is also some information about the artist.
Again just search the artists name.
"Both works transform everyday objects into sculpture with humorous investigation."
That was a small part of the information given about Wurm on the balticmill website. I thought that this small quote summarises Wurm's works, and show the relation between his works and this weeks topic, Art & The Quotidian Object.
This reminded me of a work by Wang Yuyang I saw at The White Rabbit gallery. It was a full size minivan that 'breathes'.
