    Hiking

    Fischli and Weiss - who doesn't know them? Always a lot of humor in art - sometimes subtle, mostly childish, pure and dadaesque!
    Even if Greta T'berg wasn't amused: the snowman has been making us smile for years - never mind the ecological balance of this white wonder box!

    Hiking

    Certainly the oldest and most widely traveled snowman of the temperate latitudes: the friendly fellow in the refrigerator was created in 2016 by the Swiss artists Peter Fischli and David Weiss and was already in the sculpture garden of MoMA in New York.
