‘Res Publica’ (2012) by Wolfgang Weileder.
This temporary installation combined three distinct elements. A stainless steel leaflet dispenser was positioned on the pavement outside the Supreme Court in Washington DC. Presented as a miniature Palladian temple based on the proportions the Court building, the dispenser contained an edition of printed plans for making a 1:50 scale architectural cardboard model of the Supreme Court. Meanwhile four cardboard versions of the model were installed at various locations around the city which had associations with privilege and homelessness. These models were deliberately left to the mercy of the weather and the urban environment.

‘Le Teste in Oggetto (The Heads in Question)’ (2009) by Rosella Biscotti.
Found by the artist in the storerooms of the Palazzo degli Uffici in the EUR district in Rome, these five bronze sculptures were commissioned to Giovanni Prini (1877-1958) and Domenico Rambelli (1886-1972) for the 1942 World’s Fair, which was later cancelled. For this installation the bronze sculptures were temporarily relocated and shown to the public for the first time.
