“In 1983 the international art magazine “Kunstforum International” in Cologne dedicated an entire edition to the art scene in Switzerland. As a twenty-two year old art student of the Düsseldorf Kunstakademie, I was still too young to be presented. But I wished to be among my Swiss artist friends, especially since I knew many of them personally. This is why I “forced” myself into the magazine, by making an ad covering a whole page, in which I was posing as William Tell. He is the legendary Swiss symbol for freedom. The crossbow in my right hand is an old symbol for highest Swiss quality. My classmate Katharina Fritsch, a renowned artist today, felt very provoked by the ad. She didn’t see the irony in it. She screamed at me in the aisle of the academy because she thought what I had done was very immoral. In Switzerland the reaction was completely the opposite: Peter Fischli approached me in the Kontiki artist bar in Zürich, he seriously thought I had become famous, several years later, he himself, became a world-famous artist.”
