Iole de Freitas at Documenta

This untitled installation, created in 2007 by Iole de Freitas, was both inside and outside the Museum Fridericianum. It consists of bent steel pipes, partially covered by either transparent or translucent panels. Some actually appeared to penetrate the building and could be seen on the outside of the building. She was born in Brazil and lives and works now in Rio de Janeiro. According to the catalogue, she is concerned with the spatial manifestations of gestures and movements. You can see another view of this by looking at Chrissie' blog. For more about this and other pieces at Documenta, read Walter Robinson's article Lost in Space.
