    The death of an artwork: A horror-movie.

    Well, you may have wondered what we should be doing with the large cardboard sculpture by Boris Hoppek for his last exhibition "I won't fuck with you tonight" after the show closed end of may. The sculpture was about 4.60 meters high and aprox. 3 meters in diameter, and our gallery doors are way to small for that. So if a buyer is interested, Boris rebuilds it at the final location, as we could only save the head from being destroyed...

    So this is what happened ... click on the image or the link below (and turn up the volume) to see the movie you never wanted to see: how to kill an artwork. Excecuted by a Bimbo, obviously.
