description: Sailstorfer, a graduate of the Munich Academy of Visual Arts, is 26 this year, and has already appeared in Manifesta 5 and at biennales in Liverpool and Havana. The metamorphic interventions that have brought him early renown raise the nostalgic potential of the past while offering viewers a bridge to the new--they include the reconstruction of a glider as a tree house and the materials of a condemned house as a three-seat sofa.
