Pierre Huyghe
Pierre Huyghe, ‘Timekeeper’ (1999)
By scraping away layers of paint on the wall of the Viennese Secession, Huyghe ‘revealed’ successive exhibition views.

The other highlight for me was the video ‘Annotated Plans for an Evacuation ‘ (2009) by Alex Hubbard.
In the video, Hubbard continuously alters the look of an old, used Ford Tempo. He does this with styrofoam, plaster and spraypaint in a way that makes it seem like he has a very clear plan for the make-over. However, over the course of the video, the purpose for his alterations becomes increasingly unclear, while their pointlessness becomes ever more clear.
