Anri Sala – No Window No Cry _ Juan O´Gorman

Anri Sala – No Window No Cry _Juan O´Gorman

The artist wanted to replace a glass of the iconic building of the University Library of UNAM.
The new glass is distorted by a bubble that will be used to let the hand of the visitor who plays the music box stuck on the glass itself.
In parallel, to the gallery Kurimanzutto a copy of the window was exposed.

With a master glassmaker we deformed the glass, we built the copy of the frame and with a company specialized in music boxes, we produced music boxes with the melody of Should I stay or should I go of group Clash.
