Manifesta 2, Luxenburg, 1998
On the occasion of Manifesta 2, Tanja Ostojic stages a performance in the elevator of the Musée d'Histoire de la Ville de Luxembourg during which she covers a square surface as well as her own shaved body and head with marble dust. For one hour, she stands on the white square - motionless, statue-like - while the elevator carries her up and down. The video film of this performance is subsequently shown on each floor of the museum, next to the elevator.
