Oie, die Beiden
Doll’s house with chambers
The “Home Work” exhibition in the SOX showcase project, which can also be viewed before the grand opening concert of Art Week, reads like a commentary on the city’s spatial situation. It features a humorous doll’s house interpretation of Richard Buckminster Fuller’s proposal to use “mechanized office buildings” for living, as they would be empty in the future “without wage earners”. Buckminster-Fuller’s idea from the 1960s is currently being reversed. The psychologically creative effect of a lack of space is then illustrated by nine artists in the chambers of the doll’s house: Sophie Aigner shows attempts at rapprochement between two bricks, Absalon, who died in 1997, practised knife attacks, and Kerstin Drechsel has a figure assuming different genders masturbate and offer her totally optimized sauna, work and living space for sale.
