"In this project I deal with the immaterial and invisible dimensions of visual art. On July 6, 2013, air will be sucked out of the Zentrum Paul Klee. An axial ventilator will be placed in the middle of the concentrically arranged exhibition "Precious and Rarities by Paul Klee", which will suck air into a flexible air hose. The hose will be
through the Paul Klee Center through the main entrance.
The air flows through the suction device into closed balloon-like plastic envelopes made of packaging material, which are pre-assembled in waiting removal vehicles. When an air envelope is filled, it is sealed so that the precious air cannot escape. The next envelope is filled using the flexible suction device.
The airy load is transported in front of Cabane B using the train convoy. The hose is fitted in a few quick steps and the fan is placed in Cabane B. Now the fan blows the air incubated with the great master's art into the empty space - the "White Cube" - and enlivens the west of Bern.
The whole action is filmed. The footage is the basis for an installation planned for 2014."
