Christine Ulm recently sent me this cool documentation of a show she had in 2021 at the Galerie Kunsthaus in Mürz, Austria. The note that Ulm sent accompanying this accordion describes the work:
Passing on
a game taking leave of the things
"The heritage of objects from my father's workshop and garden ended arranged in rooms of the gallery. The visitors were asked to take one or more of the things with them. At the end the rooms were nearly empty, only the green surrounding lines were left."
This accordion documents the gallery when it was full and later when only the outlines of the objects that had been taken were left. I really like the concept of the 'disappearing' exhibition and this accordion plays a key documentary role in preserving the 'then' and 'now' of this work, as well as its passage through the time period of the exhibition.
6 double-sided pages, individually 4" x 6", and when unfolded 3ft.
