With her performance walks and transfers, Marion Ritzmann undertakes a series of walks between the two exhibition venues of the "Grosse Regionale", the Kunst(Zeug)Haus and the *ALTEFABRIK in Rapperswil-Jona (St. Gallen), where she can accompany one person at a time. In conversation with the visitors, the focus is on the themes of the individual exhibition experience, individual exhibits and/or "being in-between".
In order to connect the two venues by repeatedly passing through the in-between space, Marion Ritzmann takes objects with her on each walk that represent the content of the other venue. In each neighboring house, these objects mutate into exhibits that are deposited on a specially made wooden display with castors. Over time, this creates a small collection of objects from the other location in each place.
The selected objects come from projects that characterize the houses in their uniqueness. In the Kunst(Zeug)Haus, this is the Robinson Library, which houses around 4000 Robinsonades. In the *ALTEFABRIK, these are exhibits in connection with the *KURATOR project, the first Swiss scholarship platform for young curators.
The transfer is not limited to the objects themselves, because after each walk Marion Ritzmann notes her observations or thoughts on the conversations with her companions on an index card and deposits them in an index card box on the respective displays. This allows visitors to the exhibition to form an impression of this processual work even after the actual performance.
