“Removal of the Wooden Floor, Grafisches Kabinett, Secession” (2010) by Lara Almarcegui.
Lara Almarcegui removed and then reconstructed the floor of an exhibition space.
Maria Eichhorn
Maria Eichhorn‘s exhibition ‘Das Geld der Kunsthalle Bern / Money at the Kunsthalle Bern’ (2000) resulted from her research into funding of the exhibition and her decision to devote the entire budget for her show to the renovation of the building. The entire museum was on show during this renovation and visitors could watch the process from up close, even in rooms that were normally hidden from view.

Wait Until II (2006) by Kris Vleeschouwer
A glass is mounted on a small shelf. Under the shelf a display with 3 numbers is always moving. When, by chance, the display shows 3 identical numbers, a piston pushes the glass a little bit to the edge until finaly it falls. After this “accident” the process starts all over again with a new glass.

Nasan Tur, ‘Berlin says’ (2009)
