Carsten Hller Offers Overnight Stay at the Guggenheim

by ARTINFO
Published: August 27, 2008

Carsten Höller will install The Revolving Hotel Room, a hotel room for two, at the Guggenheim Museum this October, the Guardian reports. The fully serviced room — consisting of three revolving discs holding a changing area, a desk, and a double bed — is part of the museum's upcoming exhibition "theanyspacewhatever," which invites 10 artists who use exhibition spaces dynamically to collaborate for an interactive, site-specific show.

Overnight guests in Höller's room, which is to be booked through the Web site of the Waldorf-Astoria hotel, will have free access to the exhibition at night. The room will be on view to the public during the day.

 

Nancy Spector, chief curator of the Guggenheim and the show's organizer, commented that the work is "a great example of how Carsten and each one of these artists is interested in engaging the viewer...in the very realization of their artwork."

"Theanyspacewhatever" runs October 24, 2008 – January 7, 2009.
