Light Intervention in all four elevators at Mannesmann Building, Düsseldorf

Kosmetisch – translates into cosmetic, it is referring to the range of filters being used to alter the light in the elevators. These color gels in different shades make nice skintones, except for the green one. For the installation, two elevators have been changed to a greenish color (on the north side of the building), two have been changed to a warm red tone (on the south side).

Eingriff – this german word translates both into intervention and surgery. Not given this context, people might expect to see something related to cosmetic surgery.

The installation is in the building for two weeks, and can be visited on Fri 14th 6-8pm, Sun 16th and Sun 23rd 11am-5pm.

For the Destination Moon Festival for solar-based Art and Music, a solar powered turntable had been built. While the sun provided enough energy to run the machine, records were played, on the street in front of the festival. This lead to interaction not only with visitors to the festival, but people from the street which were passing by the artwork.

The work was mentioned in an article on wall street journal online, unfortunately only available to subscribers here.
