Familiar objects from the home environment such as a crib, a sink, a drain, or a stack of newspapers create the initial impression of ready-mades, but all are handmade by the artist. The works are strongly infused with his memories, but they also trigger emotions that are common to us all, such as discomfort, doubt and suffering. Existing in dialogue with the things we consider \u2018normal\u2019, Gober\u2019s works investigate his sense of \u2018otherness\u2019 as a gay man. The transfigured objects tell their stories on several different levels, presenting intricate and mystifying narratives concerned with childhood, sexuality, religion, discrimination and memory. On closer inspection they take on a symbolic character, onto which the viewer\u2019s experiences and unconscious desires can be projected.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"afm_hide_title":false,"afm_artist_date_of_birth":"1954","afm_artist_date_of_death":"","afm_artist_birth_place":"USA","_afm_post_new_title":""},"class_list":["post-101","artist","type-artist","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Robert Gober - Astrup Fearnley Museet<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/afmuseet.dev10.dekodes.no\/en\/artists\/robert-gober\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Robert Gober\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Robert Gober introduced his very personal take on Appropriation art in the 1980s and 90s.
