Measuring the Universe

Roman Ondák

Based on the artist’s 2007 project of the same name, in which the height of exhibition visitors was marked on the gallery wall by museum attendants, Measuring the Universe repeats this performance in the collector’s home. For the period of one year, the owner of this edition will mark the height and name of each visitor to their home, along with the date, on a large paper against the wall and at the end of the year the work will be framed. This edition is produced on the occasion of the artist’s participation in the exhibition Passengers at the Wattis Institute, 2008.
