While the title interpolates a doubtful practice and their function modes within the real art market ironically, Kirschners 4 related works for the areas will have pragmatic and usable aspects for their inhabitants and visitors.

However it concerns less around art doing services than kind of a practised art understanding, which develops the system as an option for the organization of an alternative art world far from any commercial gallery connections. For example Kirschner draws at a large "art theory placement" so mentioned, (like an oversize drawn kettle holder) at present, on which the inhabitants of the Icelandic garden can install themselves on around a grill party. When there is bad weather the drawing can function as rain protection.

It goes like always with Kirschner around the explanation of fundamental question in the artist role, the priority and different functions from art at all. What can one recognize as art?

At last Kirschner distributed in his performance "about:blank" in New York, blank paper notes to the passing people at Fifth avenue. The in such a way involved pedestrians directly took part at the artwork in the moment of their attempt of interpretating the paper which acted thematically over the interpretation of the work itself and our conception areas.
