“To mark the moment he will wheel in a cannon and a cannoneer, who will load it with giant red wax pellets every 20 minutes and fire it at the wall, where the projectiles will explode at a speed of 50km/h. The work, Shooting into the Corner, was described as a “kind of psycho-drama” by the artist. “In a violent world, at least one set of meanings is obvious with this piece… The making of a mark is a violent act.”
