Hans Schabus: Das Rendezvousproblem

Eckhard Schneider

0/5 ( ratings)

Let's get lost: best known for his installations and artistic explorations, often recorded on video, Hans Schabus here transforms the entire Peter Zumthor-designed Kunsthaus Bregenz into a complex and convoluted architectonic and mental path of discovery in search of both the self and the building's history. At the museum Schabus blocks the main entrance, requiring admission through a loading dock; the ground floor holds pond liner, topped with puddles, fire hoses and pumps to recall the deluge of 1999, when the Kunsthaus was flooded by Lake Constance; the darkened second floor's projection space documents Schabus's train trips to the museum; and he transforms the third floor into a disorienting "white cube," undermining the standard notion of exhibition space. This book, designed in cooperation with the artist, traces his strategy through images, conceptual plans and texts (including Friedrich D�rrenmatt's short story "The Tunnel," and provides a complete record of this highly-regarded emerging artist's most ambitious work to date.
