–

At the question of ‘What have you been up to this summer?‘ American artist DANIEL TURNER answered as rudimentary as a post-internet alchemist would do: ‘reducing a cafeteria into a liquid’*.

Basically DANIEL TURNER salvaged a cafeteria from southeast Virginia which housed an array of public and civic functions. Then the 36 steel folding chairs and 3 collapsible steel/wooden tables have been reduced by hand before being further chemically processed. Finally the cafeteria which has been transformed into particles has been sprayed onto the gallery floor of the Berliner art gallery König.

Particle Processed Cafeteria by DANIEL TURNER is on view until October 30th, 2016 at König Galerie’s St Agnes Nave.
