Manifesta4, Frankfurt, 2002

A wooden bunker-shaped box built inside the exhibition space of an art biennale. To access its interior one had to exit the building and re-enter through a side-door that led directly inside the box. A sign was placed over the side-door promising a look-out. Whereas the regular entrance to the exhibition was restricted to ticket holders, entrance to the box was free: any passer-by could enter and, from within, partially observe the exhibition through thin slits that opened onto the space beyond.
