In a split second after I took this photo she walked away, and I couldn't help but wonder what her thoughts were as she had lingered at the artwork for quite a while before I took this

“you,”

Urs Fischer & You – The giant $250,000 hole

Installation view: “you,” Gavin Brown's enterprise, New York: 10/25/07 – 12/22/07

One of his best-known works is You. You was an impressive installation, created by Urs Fischer in 2007 for Gavin Brown’s enterprise gallery . The contrast between the white exhibition walls and the hole dug by the artist created a hot debate. 

You, 2007

You was an eight-foot deep crater that measured approximately 11,6 x 9,1 m (38 x 30 ft.), extending almost to the walls of the gallery. It was dug within the pristine white walls of the New York-based gallery.

According to New York Magazine , the pit took ten days to build and approximately $250,000. The same report shows that it was dug using jackhammers to remove the concrete floor. The workers used a backhoe to clear the tons of debris around the area.

BLUR

 The Blur Building was a temporary media pavilion built for the 2002 Swiss Expo in Yverdon-les-Bains, Switzerland, rising out of Lake Neuchatel.

 

This perception-altering exhibition, the creation of architects Elizabeth Diller and Ricardo Scofidio, was unfortunately not built to be a permanent structure, and no longer exists. Blur Building is permanently closed.

 This entry remains in the Atlas Obscura as a record of its history, but it is no longer accessible to visitors.
