‘Twelve Ballads for Huguenot House’ (2012) by Theaster Gates.

Twelve Ballads for Huguenot House references the musical offerings that were filmed within an abandoned Chicago building before it was renovated in Summer 2011. The home’s carefully deconstructed materials (together with its occupants) were then shipped to Kassel, Germany and reused as the raw material for the construction and inhabitation of Huguenot House.
