rotating kitchen from Zeger Reyers on Vimeo.
You got to love art, this kitchen will be rotating for 3 months. I wonder how it will smell in the end? Looks like this art exhibit was built with the same criteria that I develop projects with, it needs to be fun an interesting but not necessarily serve a purpose. At first I though how boring is this, they have glued everything in place and just like when filming an upside down scene in the movies everything remains in place. Well I was wrong, it is fun to see everything crash about as it does a full rotation! Below is a time lapse of how they put it together.

I don’t understand why it’s going to be there for 3 months, and I somehow doubt that it will actually be rotating that whole time, since it barely sustained 3 minutes! I hope that they cut the power to the light fixtures, otherwise, not only will the installation not be there 3 3 months, the gallery won’t be, either. Perhaps that’s the second act of destruction for the piece, and the reason that it’s staying in place — they want to raze the gallery.

I must not have an artistic bone in my body. I don’t see what the attraction is to watching kitchen goods go through the spin cycle at uber slow motion.

It’s funny… good idea, but useless… why not 🙂

This might be a good technique for filming a poltergeist type movie.

Pouncer, you are right, you probably don’t have it. This is interesting for me.

Anyone who has tried to use the galley on a boat in rough weather would find this mildly amusing at best.

Yet another wast of time and space in the name of Art. Last year here in New Zealand a so called artist won a prestigious art award with a pile of trash made up of the other competitors packing material, Whats worse he didn’t even fly here to build it he just sent instructions.
Check it out.

Better than other “works of art” i’ve seen. Looks like my kitchen after making dinner.
