Rolling Boards

"Construction of One" by Liam Gillick was a project by museum in progress to make use of rolling boards, a then new advertising medium. museum in progress thus followed on from the long-standing exhibition series "Billboard" and, in accordance with its practice, used the new advertising spaces to present contemporary art in media and public space. From 26 October 2004 to April 2005 three images created by Liam Gillick and derived from the last ever publicity campaign of the DDR were presented in approximately 140 changing locations throughout the city of Vienna. In addition to the rolling boards the work was also displayed as full page inserts in the daily newspaper Der Standard and in the form of a video-clip on infoscreens on the Vienna subway system. This exhibition was realised in cooperation with the "Month of Photography".

The project was made possible by "Kunst im öffentlichen Raum Wien".
