This series was created as part of Katharina Grosse's 2001 exhibition at Hamburger Bahnhof, Berlin, for which she painted and sprayed both sides of a wall measuring 12,5 x 14,5 cm. After the exhibition, the wall was dismantled and sawn up by the Retrograde Strategies working group together with students from the Berlin-Weißensee Art Academy, then taken to the Heilbronner Kunstverein, where it was transformed by carpentry apprentices from the Johann-Jakob-Widmann School into multiples in the form of headrests and reading aids.
