BENCH IN PROGRESS

October 2009
Ebelsberg

A bench sets out to plot the migrations of “modern nomads”. This “bench in progress” is moved to a new location every Saturday; in this way it pays visits to different neighbourhoods on Linz’s south side. For a week at a time one or several organisations and/or groups will be in charge of the programme involving the bench, from the “degustation of the must” to a “bank raid”. Activities will be documented on film; the resulting video will be shown to the public at the bench’s “home base”, the church in Ebelsberg.
