Tourist

Heidelberg Kunstverein, September 2007

A wooden pavilion composed of two adjacent chambers, each with a separate entrance, divided by a translucent screen allowing visitors in one chamber to have a diffuse view of the interior of the other. On chamber A (the tourist’s) there was a small table, with a bench, facing a window with vertical blinds looking onto the garden. On this table there was an image of Heidelberg from which three of the most famous Heidelberg’s monuments had been cut-out. Chamber B (the surgeon’s) had a table, also with a bench, that faced the translucent screen. On this table the visitors could observe, through a lens, the cut-out monuments from the image of Heidelberg.
