 Item
Identifier: CC-46933-49670
Scope and Contents

In a letter to Marvin Sackner sent with this catalogue, Axel Malik writes, "As this catalogue has an English translation as well, it might be of interest to you. It features my biggest work of 'concrete writing', a piece of enormous dimensions, 6,20 meters wide and 20 meters long. As you can see on one photo on my web-site, the help of mountainclimbers was needed for the installation at the Broadcast-Studio of the SWR. During the exhibition it was possible to travel along the work by taking an transparent elevator. With best wishes and greeting, Axel." The catalogue coincided with exhibitions at the Dombibliothek Hildesheim in 2003 and SWR Studio Freiburg in 2004. Included is an interview between Elamr Zorn and Axel Mmalk on December 11, 2004 in the SWR Studio Freiburg. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
