Unpacking Storage Piece (card)
Haegue Yang
Published by the Haubrok Foundation, Berlin, 2007, card (colour & b/w ill.), 12.5 × 17.5 cm, German
Price: €15

Produced on the occasion of Haegue Yang’s exhibition Unpacking Storage Piece at Haubrokshows, Berlin, 29 September–3 October, 2007.

“Storage Piece was created in 2003. It consists of works that had yet to be sold and nowhere to be stored. Meanwhile, the work, born from necessity, had been exhibited numerous times. Upon its purchase by Axel Haubrok at Art Forum 2005 in Berlin, Haegue Yang transferred the work’s authorship to the collector. The possibility to unpack it was a conceptual part of the work and has now been realized by the owner together with the artist.” Exhibition press release

“The world is full of various products which are, however, often unsatisfactory. On the one hand, it is fascinating how well thought-out many things are produced in regard to economic viability. But on the other hand, this leads to very few things which can be used in other ways than what they were intended for, i.e. things allowing other uses apart from their original purpose. Furthermore, there are many exclusively designed but expensive things serving additional social ends. My grid bloc elicits different possibilities of use, thus supplementing the existing programme. Wherever a demand is presumed, it will be offered for sale.” Haegue Yang
