| For the project "View may be denied by cargo (Aussicht kann durch Ladung verstellt sein)" the artists experiment with all of their possessions: objects that are necessary for their daily routine or the outcome of their work, even though the items appear to be useless. Toothbrushes, books, computers, beds, tables, clothes, cars, but also the keys to their apartment, bank cards or passports are amassed in the Kunstverein Medienturm premises. The original function of those objects is suspended, they are listed in an inventory and presented to the public in sculptural form. The inventory, transfer and the performative rearrangement elucidate the mediality of things.
An accompanying artist book to the exhibition documents with conceptual consistency not the installation in Graz but the artists' now empty living and work spaces, as well as all of the things that slowly accumulate again over the course of the exhibition.
