Note

Installation at Villa Museumpark 9 The text "Oh, what a nice house! I wonder who lives there? I must go in and see!", written onto the outer wall of the Villa Museumpark 9, is a quotation taken from the fairytale "Goldilocks". It creates an ironic undertone referring to the building's exquisite architecture and its function as an exhibition space. The girlish handwriting brings back memories of trying your hardest to write neatly in your exercise book. (Text: Manifest) Courtesy: Von der Tann Gallery, Berlin
