Enter into office hours is a seven - hour performance situated in the sever room of the Foundation for Art and Culture Gelderland. The performance was presented at their anniversary exhibition 8 x 5.
The object of the performance is the exhibition catalogue. I was invited to make a contribution for the catalogue and thought about giving an action, a movement.
I positioned myself between two shelfs, with my feet in the air. On this spot I tore my yellow page out of the catalogue (1000 copies). The rhythm of this action was dictated by the light, which I had connected to a time switch. each time the small space got overexposed for sixteen seconds, I picked a book and tore a page out. The sound of the tearing was recorded and transmitted via the server system throughout the office spaces in the entire building.
