Do It Yourself Art. Madrid 2011
Art that produces art or that anyone can produce is "do-it-yourself art". The work of art is reproducible by design; artists write instructions on its use or create objects with which anyone can reproduce works of art as often as they like. Do-it-yourself art is art rendered democratic, shorn of its mystic aura and the artist's status as a solitary creative genius. more

Christo & Jeanne Claude. Prints and Objects. Madrid 2006
This exhibition presents one integral aspect of Christo and Jeanne-Claude’s oeuvre, the print, photographs and object editions.

Frontside, Basel 2001
