Editing Hans Haacke (section)

===1990s===
Haacke's controversial 1990 painting ''Cowboy with Cigarette'' turned [[Picasso]]'s ''Man with a Hat'' (1912–13) into a cigarette advertisement. The work was a reaction to the [[Altria Group|Phillip Morris]] company's sponsorship of a 1989–90 exhibition about [[Cubism]] at the Museum of Modern Art.<ref name="C4"/>

Haacke has had solo exhibitions since, at the [[New Museum of Contemporary Art]], New York; the [[Van Abbemuseum]], Eindhoven; and the [[Centre Georges Pompidou]], Paris.

In 1993, Haacke shared, with [[Nam June Paik]], the [[Golden Lion]] for the German Pavilion at the [[Venice Biennale]]. Haacke's installation ''Germania'' made explicit reference to the pavilion's roots in the politics of [[Nazi Germany]].  Haacke tore up the floor of the German pavilion as Hitler once had done. In 1993, looking through the doors of the pavilion, past the broken floor, the viewer witnesses the word on the wall: "Germania", Hitler's name for Nazi Berlin.<ref name="The Art Libel">''The Village Voice''.
