Der Vektor
Neue Nationalgalerie, Skulpturengarten, Staatliche Museen zu Berlin, 2014elastic band - intervention/temporary sculptureat Future Nows (initiated by Olafur Eliasson and David Chipperfield)Der Vektor corresponds to space as an autonomous, senseless, shapeless, formless, borderless and infinite material surrounding us. Der Vektor knows neither up or down, nor being parallel to anything. Itslocation and angle has no sense. Its location and angle makes no sense. Der Vektor is an idea. Therefore it is free from material laws and physical restraints. It has no rule to follow. it can do the impossible.
