Light Installation:
Idea, concept and fundraising by Esenija Bannan
The light installation of the drawing ‘How to Meet an Angel’ was inspired by the drawing for the sculpture of the same title, located at the Gutspark Böckel in Rödinghausen. The silhouette of the museum and its glassed top complimented the figure climbing the wooden construction to meet the angel(s), which are flying on the glassed top and are visible from far away. Angels are important figures in Kabakovs’ work and, by drawing this encounter with light on the museum’s façade, covered with fragments of architectural drawings, the connection between drawing and installation was accentuated.
