Thomas Hirschhorn

This was one of my favourite exhibitions this year so far: Thomas Hirschhorn's installation "Stand-Alone" at Arndt&Partner in Berlin. It recently closed but here's a link with pictures and text:

The effect of going through the rooms hardly comes across in the pictures but what happend to me was that I first was rather irritated and I didn't really know what to do with it but more and more fascination (and also shock) creeped in. I saw a lot of good exhibitions latley but I haven't experienced that mix of confusion and fascination so much.

I also found his text tres sympa (click the link). I don't think I understand or agree with everything he says but it's for sure a nice departure from the rule that you shouldn't explain your own work.
