Description
«The end wall of the galerie im taxispalais in innsbruck was fitted with a black frame whose surface was covered with black paper. According to what was physically possible for him, the artist cut out sections of paper and folded them into squares of identical size, until the wall was once again its original white with a black frame. A video camera recorded the action. Amonitor in front of the wall showed the action of the shift from black to white. This is one of the first exclusively video-based installations in austria – yet more remarkable is the level of content – the artist has brought the artistic process into the exhibition. »
